The following are error messages that might be displayed:

HP Systems Insight Manager is not configured to display any status.

To resolve this issue, close the window, customize the display of the System Status panel, and
re-launch.

This window does not have a connection with the main HP Systems Insight

Manager window.

To resolve this issue, close the window.

NOTE:

The status panel pop-up window might not be displayed if you have a pop-up blocker configured

and running on your system. You must disable the pop-up blocker or configure it to allow the HP SIM
application to use pop-up windows.

NOTE:

If HP SIM is configured to enable session timeout, the status pop-up window will no longer display

status when the session expires.

Utilizing RSS capabilities

Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a data format based on eXtensible Markup Language (XML) that can be
used by applications and websites to provide content to other applications. HP SIM uses RSS to publish
System Status

panel information that can be viewed in newsfeed programs.

RSS capabilities can be enabled in HP SIM by changing the

rssFeedEnabled property in the

globalsettings.props

. By changing this value, you can view the System Status panel information

in newsreaders and applications. Perform the following to enable RSS:

1.

Stop the HP SIM service.

2.

In the globalsettings.props file, set the

rssFeedEnabled property to True. The file is located at:

On Windows

It is typically located at C:\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight

Manager\config\globalsettings.props

.

On HP-UX and Linux

It is located at /etc/opt/mx/config/globalsettings.props.

3.

Restart the HP SIM service.

4.

Browse to

http://server_name:280/RSS to view the XML output for the current HP SIM status values.

The URL in step 3 can be used in RSS readers to view the same data.

Setting language locale

You can set the language or locale in your operating system, in a command shell, or in your web browser
to English or Japanese and run HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM). Both the

Central Management Server

(CMS) and the managed systems must support all the desired languages. The language is used to present
all the labels, menus, and status and error messages in HP SIM in the requested language. The

GUI

shown

in your browser appears in the preferred language of the web browser. Also, tools and tasks executed
interactively through the CMS have the same language used as the language the tool command line is
executed with on the target system. This enables your web browser to run tools, create scheduled tasks, and
manually run scheduled tasks in the preferred language. Likewise, the language setting of your command
shell is forwarded through the mxexec and mxtask command line commands to set the language for
executing a tool, manually executing a task, or creating a scheduled task when the command line for the
tool is executed on the target systems.
