Clicking on a status icon for iLO 2 takes you to the iLO 2 Web interface. Clicking on the hardware statusicon takes you to the Insight Management Agents for the device. Clicking on the iLO 2 or server nametakes you to the System Page of the device. Within the System Page are the Identity, Tools & Links, andEvent tabs. These tabs provide identity and status information, event information, and links for theassociated device.<strong>HP</strong> SIM systems listsiLO 2 management processors can be viewed within <strong>HP</strong> SIM. A user with full configuration rights cancreate and use customized system collections to group management processors. See the <strong>HP</strong> SystemsInsight Manager Technical Reference <strong>Guide</strong>, provided with <strong>HP</strong> SIM and available on the <strong>HP</strong> website(http://www.hp.com/go/hpsim) for additional details.Receiving SNMP alerts in <strong>HP</strong> SIMiLO 2 can be configured to forward alerts from the host operating system management agents, and it canalso be configured to send iLO 2-generated alerts to <strong>HP</strong> SIM.<strong>HP</strong> SIM provides support for full SNMP management, and iLO 2 supports SNMP trap delivery to <strong>HP</strong> SIM.You can view the event log, select the event, and view the additional information about the alert.Configuring receipt of SNMP alerts in <strong>HP</strong> SIM is a two-step process. The process requires <strong>HP</strong> SIM todiscover iLO 2 and configuring iLO 2 to enable SNMP alerts.1. To enable iLO 2 to send SNMP traps click SNMP/Insight Manager Settings on theAdministration tab of the iLO 2 navigation frame to enable SNMP alerting and to provide anSNMP trap IP address to iLO 2. This IP address should be the address of the computer running <strong>HP</strong>SIM. Refer to the “Enabling SNMP Alerts” section for details.2. To discover iLO 2 in <strong>HP</strong> SIM configure iLO 2 as a managed device for <strong>HP</strong> SIM. Adding iLO 2 to <strong>HP</strong>SIM allows the NIC interface on iLO 2 to function as a dedicated management port, isolatingmanagement traffic from the remote host server NIC interface.a. Start <strong>HP</strong> SIM.b. Select Options>Discovery>Automatic Discovery to discover tab.c. Select the discovery task to run and click Edit.d. Select IP range pinging. If the IP address is not in the Ping inclusion ranges, templates and/orhosts files section, enter the IP address.e. Click OK.f. Click Save and Run to add iLO 2 to <strong>HP</strong> SIM. After the discovery is complete, subsequentqueries will display the device as a management processor.You may need to edit the SNMP read community string (for example, by changing it to "public")so that iLO 2 is displayed in the list of monitored systems. The SNMP read community string canbe changed by accessing the Systems Protocol Settings page. To access the these settings, selectOptions>Protocol Settings>System Protocol Settings.Another option is to click Options>Protocol Settings>Global Protocol Settings and setcommunity strings to use during discovery under Default SNMP Settings. When set, you can usesteps a through f to run Discovery again.For major, uncleared events, iLO 2 traps are displayed in All Events. You can also use the orangebutton at the top of the screen to obtain the major uncleared events. Click the Event Type to obtainfurther information about the event.<strong>HP</strong> Systems Insight Manager integration 149
