Setting event attributes

Event lists are pruned periodically to the number set in “Max Events”. The new setting is applied the next time the list is pruned.

Setting data polling interval

You can set the frequency at which the Application Discovery agent sends fresh data to the Application Discovery server. You can set polling for processes and for packages separately.

Prerequisite: You must have “Matrix OE All tools” authorization to set visibility attributes. (See “User authorizations” in Matrix Operating Environment help for a discussion of tool box permissions.)

1.Click the following tabs: Admin/Config, then AD Agents.

2.Find the global settings box on the left of the screen.

Table 2 Global settings for refresh of data from Application Discovery agent

Interval type	Description
Global host/process interval	Frequency of update for host and process data. Default value: 5m (once every
	5 minutes)
Global package interval	Frequency of update for package data. Default value: 5h (once every five
	hours)

3.Select an interval from the drop down list that appears to the right of each interval type.

Introduction to event settings in Application Discovery

Application Discovery logs various application and administrative events occurring in the computing network. It records events that occur in association with applications, host machines, agents, and templates. You can set the desired severity for an event type and the location at which the event alert can be seen.

To access and modify the attribute fields for events, click the Admin/Config tab, then the Events tab. The next figure shows part of the event configuration fields.

Matrix Operating Environment Software specifications

HP Matrix Operating Environment (MOE) is an innovative software platform designed to deliver efficient management and orchestration of IT resources across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. It provides a comprehensive solution for organizations that require a robust and flexible environment to manage their IT operations seamlessly.

One of the main features of HP MOE is its ability to optimize resource utilization by automating the provisioning and management of infrastructure components. This includes the ability to rapidly deploy servers, storage, and networking resources in a manner that meets the dynamic needs of modern businesses. This automation significantly reduces the time and effort required for manual configurations, enabling IT teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine tasks.

The software offers a unified management interface that provides visibility into the entire IT environment. Users can monitor performance metrics, track resource allocation, and manage workflows through a single dashboard. This centralized control not only simplifies operations but also enhances decision-making capabilities by providing real-time insights into system health and performance.

Another critical characteristic of HP MOE is its support for both physical and virtual resources. The platform is designed to seamlessly integrate with existing infrastructure, making it easier for organizations to adopt virtualization and hybrid cloud strategies. Its compatibility with industry-standard hypervisors allows businesses to leverage their current investments while taking advantage of the benefits of virtualization.

HP MOE incorporates advanced technologies such as automation scripts, APIs, and tools for workload balancing. This technological backbone enables organizations to implement elasticity in their environments, allowing them to scale resources up or down based on demand. The software also supports a service-oriented architecture, facilitating integration with other enterprise applications and systems.

Security is a top priority in the design of HP MOE. The software provides robust security features that ensure data integrity and protect against unauthorized access. This includes role-based access controls, encryption, and compliance reporting, all of which contribute to a secure operating environment.

In summary, HP Matrix Operating Environment Software is a powerful solution that addresses the complexities of managing modern IT resources. Its key features include automation, unified management, support for physical and virtual environments, and strong security measures. With its ability to enhance efficiency and streamline operations, HP MOE is an essential tool for organizations looking to stay competitive in an increasingly digital landscape.
