System Name
column produces a list of all discovered systems in the selected enclosure. The status
for both racks and enclosures is always Unknown.
•
When a server blade is identified through another system in the same rack or enclosure, associations
are made between the iLO and the enclosures in which they reside. This association appears in the
System Name
column on the system table view page by showing the system serial number prepended
with
Server_ in Encl. enclosure_name. For example, Server_C349KJP5D876 in Encl. Encl4. The system
address, product name, and operating system are not displayed for these systems.
You can launch HP Serviceguard Manager to manage a server belonging to an HP Serviceguard cluster.
To do so, ensure that:
•
HP Serviceguard Manager is installed and registered with HP SIM
•
The system selected is an HP-UX or Linux server that belongs to an HP Serviceguard cluster
System Type
This column displays the system type, for example, Server, or Desktop. The system type Unmanaged indicates

type Unknown indicates systems that have some management protocol but have not matched any identification
rule in HP SIM. See
for more information on the different system types.
NOTE:
Unmanaged systems might indicate that the credentials were not set correctly to communicate with
the system. If you know that there are HP Insight Management Agents installed, verify the credentials used.

This column displays the primary IP address of the system that HP SIM uses to communicate with the system.
Not all systems have an IP address, including HP Serviceguard clusters.

type Linux. HP Serviceguard and HP Serviceguard for Linux under the OS Name column of the
virtual
cluster system column do not represent the actual operating system name and type. This field is used to let
