The
WEBAGENT.INI
file is located in the directory /var/opt/CPQIMddd/web/im/webagent if the pathname is
/var/opt/CPQIMddd/bin/cpqthresh_mib, where the value ddd indicates the version of the Management
Agents installed on the system.
The Web Agent service must be stopped and restarted for any changes to take effect for Tru64 UNIX operating
systems.
Deploying the configurations to servers running Linux
The configuration settings for the Management HTTP Server are stored in three files. The passwords for the
Management HTTP Server are stored in
/var/spool/compaq/wbem/cpqhmmd.acl
.
The configuration settings for the Management HTTP Server that existed through version 3.x is stored in
/var/spool/compaq/wbem/homepage/cpqhmmd.ini
.
The configuration settings for the Management HTTP Server that were introduced in version 4.x and later are stored in
/var/spool/compaq/wbem/homepage/cpqhmmdx.ini
.
To deploy the Management HTTP Server configuration to other servers, copy the corresponding ACL file and INI files
previously listed.
Three types of data exists:
•
Default (read only)
•
Sets (read/write)
•
Reboot (read/write).
The
.INI
files located in
/opt/compaq/webagent
are the configuration files used by the Web-Enabled HP Insight
Management Agents.
Deploying the configurations to servers running NetWare
In NetWare, the
webagent.INI
file is located in the
sys:\system\cpqmgmt\webagent
directory and specifies
the level of a user with access to data. The “read=” and “write=” entries in the file set the user accounts required for
access:
•
0 = No access
•
1 = anonymous
•
2 = user
•
3 = operator
•
4 = administrator.
Changing these entries changes the security.
The Web Agent service must be stopped and restarted for any changes to take effect. Do not modify anything except
the read/write levels to change the security.

Introduction
The System Management Homepage is the one-stop-centralized simple view for all the management information and
configuration data generated by Web-Enabled System Management software and utilities. The status of the
management software and utilities installed on the system is aggregated on the System Management Homepage.
Integrated help on the Homepage provides all the pertinent help information for the management software and
utilities on the system.
What is Management HTTP Server?
The Management HTTP Server is a web server embedded in much of the HP Web-Enabled System Management
software.
Overview
After a product that uses the Management HTTP Server has been installed and configured, a few things occur the first
time the Management HTTP Server is initiated. Upon initialization, the Management HTTP Server creates a private key
and a corresponding self-signed, Base64-encoded certificate. This process only occurs the first time that the
Management HTTP Server is started. The certificate is stored on the file system as
\compaq\wbem\cert.pem
. The
\compaq\wbem
subdirectory also contains the private key. To protect the key, this subdirectory is only accessible to
