HP Systems Insight Manager - Manual (Page 244)

The server deployment is installed separately from HP SIM. It requires a license for each server
managed. You must register your server deployment product to purchase licenses. See the server
deployment documentation for network environment setup, prerequisites for the deployment server,
and installation instructions.
HP Insight Control
server provisioning HP Insight Control includes the rights for Insight Control server provisioning, which is a new
feature replacing HP Insight Control server deployment. Insight Control server provisioning performs
multi-server operating system provisioning to bare metal ProLiant and BladeSystem servers. You
can download the Insight Control server provisioning installation instructions from
http://

HP Insight Remote
Support The HP Insight Remote Support provides proactive remote monitoring, diagnostics, and
troubleshooting to help improve the availability of HP-supported servers and storage devices in
your data center. The Remote Support reduces cost and complexity in support of systems and
devices. The Remote Support securely communicates incident information through your firewall
and/or Web proxy to the HP Support Center for reactive support. Additionally, based on your
support agreement, system information can be collected for proactive analysis and services.
rack A set of components cabled together to communicate between themselves. A rack is a container
for an enclosure.
Red Hat Package
Manager The Red Hat Package Manager is a powerful package manager that can be used to build, install,
query, verify, update, and uninstall individual software packages. A package consists of an
archive of files and package information, including name, version, and description.
Replicate Agent
Settings A tool that can be used to copy web-based agent settings to a group of systems.
repository A directory containing ProLiant and Integrity Support Packs and Smart Components.
Resource Partition A subset of the resources owned by an operating system instance. The use of those resources is
controlled through technologies such as the Fair Share Scheduler, pSets, and Memory Resource
Groups.
A resource partition also has a set of processes associated with it, and only those processes can
use the resources within the resource partition. Policies established by tools such as Process
Resource Manager (PRM), Workload Manager (WLM), or Global Workload Manager (gWLM)
control how resources are allocated to the set of resource partitions within an operating system
instance.
role See toolbox.
S
SAN A storage area network (SAN) is a network (or subnetwork) that connects data storage devices
with associated data servers. A storage area network is typically part of an overall network of
computing resources.
search criteria A set of variables (information) used to define a requested subset of information from the HP SIM
database.
Secure HTTP An extension to the HTTP protocol that supports sending data securely over the web.
Secure Shell A program to log in to another system over a network and execute commands on that system. It
also enables you to move files from one system to another, and it provides authentication and
secure communications over insecure channels.
Secure Sockets
Layer A standard protocol layer that lies between HTTP and TCP and provides privacy and message
integrity between a client and server. A common usage of SSL is to provide authentication of the
server, so clients can be assured they are communicating with the server it claims to be. It is
application protocol independent.
Secure Task
Execution A feature of HP SIM that securely executes a task from a managed system. STE ensures that the
user requesting the task has the appropriate rights to perform the task, and encrypts the request
to protect data from snooping.
server blade Typically a very dense server system containing microprocessors, memory, and network connections
that can be easily inserted into a rack-mountable enclosure to share power supplies, fans, switches,
and other components with other server blades. Server blades tend to be more cost-efficient,
