Java Virtual Machine requirements
HP Web-Enabled System Management software requires Java for full functionality. At a minimum,
the help system relies on a Java applet to provide a table of contents, an index, and search
capability. Depending on what Web-Enabled System Management software is installed, there
might be other features that are either partially or fully dependent on the presence of Java support
in the browser.

Accessing HP Insight Management Agents from a browser
Accessing on a Microsoft operating system
The HP Insight Management Agents for Servers enable you to view subsystem and status information
from a Web browser, either locally or remotely.
To view data locally on Microsoft operating systems, access https://127.0.0.1:2381 or https://
localhost:2381 .
The Management Agents can also be browsed locally by selecting Start>Programs>HP Management
Agents>HP System Management Home Page.
To view data remotely on Microsoft OS access https://machine:2381 , where “machine” is the IP
address or the computer name under DNS.
IMPORTANT: Notice that the URL is followed by 2381. This is the port or socket number that the
HP Insight Management Agents for Servers use to communicate with the browser. If this number is
not specified, the browser might attempt to connect to another Web page if the managed server
is running a Web server.
After you enter the URL, there is a certificate challenge followed by a login screen.
