OpenSSL :

OpenSSL is required on managed systems so that the Application Discovery agent software can securely send application information to the CMS.

To obtain the latest version of OpenSSL for HP-UX, go to the Security and Manageability page on HP Software Depot web site (http://software.hp.com/). Find OpenSSL and click the download link.

On Linux systems, OpenSSL is usually installed by default, or it can be installed from the Linux distribution media.

To avoid a number of known security vulnerabilities, use one of the following versions: 0.9.7l or later for the 0.9.7 branch, or 0.9.8d or later for the 0.9.8 branch. Check the web site http://www.openssl.org/news for announcements of OpenSSL security advisories and dates on various historical OpenSSL software releases.

2.Check that HP WBEM Services software is installed on the managed node and that it is a compatible version.

To obtain a new version of HP WBEM Services for HP-UX, go to the Security and manageability page on HP Software Depot web site (http://software.hp.com/). Find “WBEM Services for HP-UX”. For details on which is the appropriate version to download by operating system version, please consult the Matrix Operating Environment installation and configuration guide. AppDiscAgent runs with any 2.x version of HP WBEM Services for HP-UX.

To obtain a new version of HP WBEM Services for Linux, go to the Internet ready and networking page on HP Software Depot web site (http://software.hp.com/). Find HP WBEM Services for Linux, and click the download link.

3.Check that the Application Discovery WBEM provider has been installed on the managed node. Type the following command on the command line of the managed node:

#cimprovider -l -m AmgrAgentProviderModule AmgrAgentProvider

A return of AmgrAgentProvider indicates that the WBEM provider is installed.

If this value is not returned, first clean up the provider by typing:

#/opt/amgr/bin/agent_wbem_cleanup Removing the AmgrAgentProvider

Then configure the provider by typing the following on the command line:

#/opt/amgr/bin/agent_wbem_config Loading Application Discovery schema Loading Application Discovery metadata

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.
