full configuration
rights user A user who is automatically authorized for the All Tools toolbox on all systems, including the
CMS. This type of user has been given special privileges to administer the HP Insight Control
software.
group firmware
mode Firmware level that a domain group operates at. VC firmware compatibility mode allows
administrators to update each domain in a domain group incrementally, rather than requiring
that all domains are updated at the same time. VC firmware compatibility mode accomplishes
this by suppressing new features that are not supported by the domain group firmware mode.
There are limitations on the VC firmware levels that can be made compatible by using VC firmware
compatibility mode.
hardware status The operating state of SNMP-based systems. A hardware status is determined by polling SNMP
information from the system. Status is defined as:
•

accessible on the network because of network problems.

Major status Aggregate status information collected from the system that indicates one or more of the monitored
subsystems are not operating properly which is impacting the system. Action should be taken
immediately.
