The predefined event processing rules included with the HP Management Packs 1.3 for MOM 2005 are
designed to automatically identify and display HP server events received in the Windows® Event Log as
MOM 2005 alerts.
Analyzing HP alerts
HP alerts contain server hardware and services information that enable you to identify the event root
cause and implement a timely and effective response.
For example, the previous figure shows a failed fan in an HP ProLiant server. The contents of the alert
Properties tab identify the level of severity (Critical Error), the system that generated the event
(DL360G2NODE1), and the agent source.
The Product Knowledge tab shown in the following figure indicates suggested resolutions to the alert.
You can use the information to implement a rapid response and maintain systems availability. For
additional in-depth systems data, you can view the HP System Management Homepage on the individual
server or use HP SIM to manage multiple systems, using the MOM Tasks provided with the HP
Management Packs 1.3 for MOM 2005.
