Create subscriptions for WBEM events. See
for more information.
Note: This option is only applicable to HP-UX systems. If this option is selected, the target system
is configured to send WBEM indications or events to HP Systems Insight Manager.
Note: Subscriptions for WBEM events can be created only if WBEM event providers are installed
and running on the managed systems.
•
Configure the WBEM Services on the target systems to support client certificate authentication.
Note: This option is only available for managing HP-UX systems running HP WBEM Services version
A.02.05 or later. If this option is selected, an HP SIM WBEM certificate is registered with the
WBEM Services trust store on the target systems. The user name associated with this certificate is
the one provided in step 5, which should have root privilege. When discovery runs, the WBEM
Services on the target systems would use this certificate to authenticate WBEM requests from HP
SIM instead of using the basic authentication mechanism. For example, user name and password.
The advantage of this technique for authentication is that you do not need to store passwords for
WBEM access on your CMS.
