leave the list of trusted

This is the default behavior
on Linux Itanium.
HP strongly recommends
using this option because it
is more secure.

Trust by Name: Sets HP
SMH to accept configuration
changes only from servers
with HP SIM names
designated in the Trust By
Name field. For example,
you might use this option if
you have a secure network
with two groups of
administrators in two
divisions. It prevents one
group from installing
software to the wrong
system. This option verifies
only the HP SIM server that
you designate.
HP strongly recommends
using the Trust by Certificate
option because the other
options are less secure.
3
Trust all
Sets HP SMH to accept
specific configuration
changes from systems. For
example, you could use the
Trust All option if you have
a secure network, and
everyone in the network is
trusted.
HP strongly recommends
using the Trust by Certificate
option because the other
options are less secure.
Configuring Trust Mode
For Linux, the imported HP SMH certificates are stored in the /opt/hp/hpsmh/certs directory.
For Windows, the imported HP SIM certificates are stored in the systemdrive: \hp\hpsmh\

directory.
