Open Service Event Manager

OSEM analyzes SNMP events and data for serviceable events, provides automated diagnosis of hardware
problems, supplies recommended actions and customer self repair procedures, and submits service notifications
to HP SIM and the Remote Support tool.

See

“Service notification events”

for information on viewing service incidents in HP SIM.

Using HP SIM with the Remote Support Pack

When you use the Remote Support Pack and HP SIM together on a Windows CMS, you can monitor and
view contract and warranty data for HP systems in the HP SIM user interface. Contract and warranty data
is obtained through communication with HP data centers. Information such as a system's serial number,
product ID, or contract ID is sent to HP data centers in order to retrieve the warranty and contract details.

See

“Viewing contract and warranty information”

for details about where you can view Remote Support

information in the HP SIM user interface.
