1.1 Outline
1.1.1 Outline of Harness Eye Web
HEW is a software used in managing the operation of Toshiba Intel Architecture servers.
HEW is web-based operation management software. If the network address of the Management Proxy
is known, the condition of the HEW Agent can be monitored from a web browser such as Internet
Explorer on the console. Also, hardware information specific to Toshiba Intel Architecture servers can
be monitored for fault detection.
Harness Eye Web modules
HEW is roughly divided into the following three modules:
- Management
Console
- Management Proxy
- Agent
In a standard HEW configuration, individual modules are each installed on different machines as
shown in the figure below. The modules can also be installed all on a single machine. The figure
below includes modules needed to install HEW.

Agent
The HTTP protocol is used for communication between the Management Console and the
Management Proxy. The SNMP protocol is used for communication between the Management
Proxy and the Agent.
In-band means communication using the LAN running on the Operating System on the Agent
machine. Out-of-band means communication using a special function of the MAGNIA Z300/Z310
even when the Operating System on the Agent machine fails.
