Appendix B - Extended discovery of HP systems

Extended discovery of HP systems

The Insight Integration has traditionally identified HP systems on the Unicenter WorldView Map by
displaying the HP Management Agent icon in Unispace. Additionally, HP systems could be discovered

and classified on the subnet map. The extended discovery files are still present in the integration and the

process is described here, however this feature cannot be used with NSM r11.

IMPORTANT:

Do not reclassify systems running the Computer Associates agents to the HP

classes if you are using Unicenter NSM r11. Reclassification results in those agents not being
monitored. If systems were reclassified, return the systems to their original classes using the

Reclassify Object menu option.

To be discovered, HP systems must meet the following requirements:

Unicenter 3.X

SNMP running on the managed devices

IP running on the managed devices

HP Insight Management Agents running on the managed devices (SNMP only)

HP classes defined in the CORE

HP class creation

To enable the new HP classes, load the class definitions into the CORE. If the HP Classes option is

selected, the installation program automatically loads the new HP classes. To manually install the HP
classes, execute the Hpqclass.exe command in the hpqnsm\cpqwv\classes directory.
