Using this Guide
This guide is comprised of nine chapters covering both general infor- mation and reference tables.
Readers new to the HP Medical Archive system should read the first four chapters to gain an understanding of how the NMS works to help you monitor the grid. The first two chapters introduce the basic func- tionality and interface layout of the NMS. The next two chapters explain NMS functionality for understanding alarm monitoring and notifications, and for obtaining reports.
The remaining chapters provide references to look up specific infor- mation. Chapters 5 and 6 provide reference information on services and components. Chapter 7 is the final chapter on the NMS; a refer- ence of alarms with troubleshooting tips.
The last two chapters deal with the Server Manager application used on the HP Medical Archive cabinet console(s).
