HP Systems Insight Manager - Manual (Page 45)

NOTE: The default settings in Firefox block the First Time Wizard. You must disable the pop up blocker in
Firefox to see the First Time Wizard.
NOTE: The selections you make in the First Time Wizard are not applied until you click Finish on the
summary page.
NOTE: For more detailed information on each item below, see the detailed information later in the chapter.
1. Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) . Enter the default WBEM user names and passwords.
This information is used to discover systems that use the WBEM management protocol .
2. SNMP . Enter the read community strings to use for all newly discovered systems. Community strings
set up the authentication that enables communication between HP SIM and a managed system. This
information is used to discover systems that use the SNMP management protocol.
See “Global protocols” for more information about WBEM and SNMP.
3. Automatic discovery. Use the wizard to enable discovery, set up the discovery schedule, and enter the
IP address ranges that include the systems you want to discover. Discovery is the process HP SIM uses
to find and identify the systems on your network and populate the database with information. A system
must be discovered to collect data and track
system health status .
4. User settings. Add the operating system user accounts that will be used to sign in to HP SIM. These
accounts associate a user account with privilege levels in HP SIM.
5. E-mail settings. Enter the e-mail settings the CMS will use to send e-mail notifications. You can set up
Automatic Event Handling tasks that cause HP SIM to send e-mails when the CMS receives a specific
event.
6. Automatic Event Handling. Define a task that will cause the CMS to send e-mail notifications based on
the selected event criteria or event collection.
NOTE: The First Time Wizard configures only the basic settings of HP SIM. See the HP SIM installation
guides located at http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/hpsim/infolibrary.html ,
and the Related topics section for more information.
