Adding new DMI rules (from Windows CMS only)

You can create a new DMI-based rule using the command line utility (mxstm). DMI system information
originates in

Management Information Format

(MIF) files. MIF files contain elements that have attributes and

corresponding values. See

“Using command line interface commands”

for information on accessing the

mxstm

manpage.

Adding new SNMP rules

You can create a new SNMP-based rule using the command line utility (mxstm) or by selecting
Options

Manage System Types from the HP SIM user interface. Within the SNMP framework, manageable

network systems (routers, bridges, servers, and so on) contain a software component called a management
agent. The agent monitors the various subsystems of the network element and stores this information in a
MIB. The agents enable the system to generate traps, which can be configured to be sent to a trap destination
server that is running HP SIM.
