1.5New in this Release

Enhanced CSR (Customer Self Repair) procedure information and added SML links.

Added a note in the FRU field to indicate if part needs to be RoHs (Reduction of Hazardous Substances).

Enhanced disk drive check condition rules. Based on analysis of field data, the error threshold levels for numerous ASC/ASCQ values have been adjusted to predict drive failures more effectively.

Updated analysis rules for supported server and storage products.

SSL encryption security for communications between WEBES and Command View EVA.

Support for HP EVA XL and HP EVA XL Lite Disk Arrays.

Integrity Servers

WEBES 4.5 is the first WEBES release to be supported on HP-UX Integrity Servers.

Analysis support of WBEM indications for Integrity servers running HP-UX v11.23 with Hardware Enablement (HWE) patches version 0603 later.

Support for the following new HP Integrity Servers that use the new Intel® Itanium® 2 processors (1.6 GHz with 6 MB L2 cache):

HP Integrity Servers rx7620, rx8620, SD16, SD32, and SD64 with Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition and OpenVMS v8.2 and later.

HP Integrity Servers rx7640, rx8640, SD16B, SD32B, and SD64B with Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition and OpenVMS v8.3 and later.

Miscellaneous

Support for sending a subset of WEBES call out reports as SNMP Service Type 3 Traps to HP SIM (Systems Insight Manager).

Support for storing entitlement data for the following types of managed entities, in addition to EVAs which were provided in previous WEBES releases:

Command View EVA Servers running in SMA or Server mode on Windows.

A redesigned Installation Configuration Wizard for Windows that no longer requires the launching of a Web browser.

WEBES health checks that can alert the user upon failures (enabled for Windows Pentium only, so far).

Virtual Library System (VLS)

VLS support in WEBES facilitates improved uptime for customers entitled by warranty or an appropriate support contract ID including lower failure-to-repair time and higher first-time-fix rates. VLS supports automated event monitoring using custom rules including verification of monitoring connectivity. WEBES detects actionable field replaceable unit (FRU) failures including reporting to customers and engaging the HP backend as needed. WEBES supports automatic entitlement of VLS nodes (subject to new bundled product labelling).
