a.

From the managed system, be sure WBEM is already installed.

Note: Subscribing to WBEM Indications/Events on managed systems is optional.

b.

Verify that SysFaultMgmt provider is installed:

cimprovider –ls

You should see EMSWrapperProviderModule.

c.

From the CMS:

To subscribe to WBEM Events, you must have root access. If the Global Protocol Setting does not
match the managed system or does not contain root access, the subscription for WBEM Indications
fails. You can verify what access WBEM has by running the following command line:

mxnodesecurity –l –p wbem –n

If the managed system does not have a root level user credential configured, you can add it for
the individual system.

Note: You can use the Configure or Repair Agents tool to perform this step without permanently
recording a root password.

To change the individual system:

mxnodesecurity -a -p WBEM -c \

-n

d.

From the CMS, run the WBEM Indications/Events command line:

mxwbemsub -l -n

See

“Subscribing to WBEM indications”

for more information.

Make sure that HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) is installed on the CMS.

2.

Make sure that the First Time Wizard has been completed on the CMS. See
