Integrating iLO 2 with HP SIM
iLO 2 fully integrates with HP SIM in key operating environments. Full integration with Systems
Insight Manager also provides a single management console for launching a standard Web
browser to access. While the operating system is running, you can establish a connection to iLO
2 using HP SIM.
Integration with HP SIM provides:
•
Support for SNMP trap delivery to a HP SIM console
Delivery to a HP SIM console can be configured to forward SNMP traps to a pager or e-mail.
•
Support for SNMP management
HP SIM is allowed to access the Insight Management Agents information through iLO 2.
•
Support for a management processor
HP SIM adds support for a new device type, the management processor. All iLO 2 devices
installed in servers on the network are discovered in HP SIM as management processors. The
management processors are associated with the servers in which they are installed.

Grouping of iLO 2 management processors
All iLO 2 devices can be grouped together logically and displayed on one page. This capability
provides access to iLO 2 from one point in HP SIM.
