Device name Typically a name you entered, when registering the device.
Otherwise obtained automatically from the Windows
“ComputerName” property, or through the Agentless
Management Service (AMS), which is a lightweight service that
collects OS-based information and provides it to iLO.
Device type/model Example: HW / HP Next Generation ProLiant DL380 server
Hover your mouse over a device to display summary information. Click on a summary to view details. For
a device whose registration is complete, click on the device to go to its individual screen.
To simplify what you see in the All devices view, you can create child groups (see Create a new child
device group ), put devices into those child groups, then remove the devices from your default device group
(using Manage device groups > Edit device groups and selecting your default device group). Then only
groups, consisting of child groups and groups shared with you by other users, will appear in this view.
Your default device group
When you first sign in, Insight Online creates a default device group named according to the information
you provided in your HP Passport account profile, in the form:
first name + last name + "Devices"
For example, Marie Curie's default device group is: Marie Curie Devices . Each user has only one
default device group. Your default device group contains:
l
Devices recognized as being associated with your HP Passport ID, registered through either central or
direct connect methods, that you have not moved into a child device group.
l
Devices you add manually that you have not put into a child device group.
l
Second-level child device groups you create.
Every device group is associated with a user group. You are the only user in the user group associated
with your default device group, and you cannot add users to it. To give other users the administrator role,
or any other role, for your default device group, create another user group or use an existing user group,
assign roles to it, and associate it with your default device group. To do so, click on Manage device
groups then Edit device group in the Actions drop-down menu at the far right, and follow the procedure.
Your default device group does not appear by name in the All devices view, because the view is
displaying (among other things, as listed above), the contents of your default device group. To see your
default device group, click on Manage device groups in the Actions drop-down menu. From there you
perform such functions as adding and removing devices, adding and deleting child device groups, and
updating the contract and warranty status of the devices in the group.
In the All devices view, you cannot distinguish child groups created by you from groups shared with you
by others. Look at Manage device groups when you need to make this distinction. In Manage device
groups, child groups created by you appear under your default device group. They are indented. For
example,
Child device group in your All devices view shows a child device group. In Manage device
