Applications not visible in Application Discovery screens

1.Confirm that your user login has the appropriate permissions on the host where the application resides, including appropriate user authorization on System Insight Manager.

2.Check that the application is not hidden from view in the application table.

Tables that list applications are preceded by the 'Application Visibility' drop-down that lets you toggle to Show hidden apps. Select this option and scan the table for your application.

Also, check that no filters are in operation in the table. (If one or more filters have been applied to the table, they are listed on the right in the dark gray table header bar.) To remove current filters, right-click anywhere on the table, and select Clear all filters.

If you cannot find the application, Application Discovery is not currently recognizing the application as matched to a template.

3.Check that Application Discovery is showing that the discovery ratio is 100%.

a.Click the following tabs in Application Discovery: Admin/Config, then Discovery.

b.Find the following column headings in the data table on this screen. Check that the value for Discovery ratio is 100%.

When the discovery ratio is less than 100%, this may indicate that an inventory is still being taken for that host. Expect the warm-up period for completing the process inventory to take about 20 minutes.

4.Check that templates that you have defined are done correctly and do not conflict with other template definitions. (See My application does not appear in the “Applications effected...” table. Why? (page 25) for more information.)

5.Check that any usage of regular expression syntax in the defining application template is correct.

Application Discovery recognizes regular expressions constructed using Perl 5 or POSIX syntax and semantics.

To learn how to review and change application template attributes, see “Change application template values” (page 24)

6.Check that any string or regular expression used in the executable path field of the defining application template describes the desired running process.

Application Discovery differs from Global Workload Manager (gWLM) in how it matches user input data to discovered applications. gWLM uses a combination of a fully qualified path and retrieved inode information to find a process on one managed node. Application Discovery does not infer the location of running processes based on the presence or location of installed applications. For broader coverage of all running processes (not just those associated with installed software packages) within a network of machines, Application Discovery matches strings and regular expressions exactly when comparing templates to running processes.

It may help to think of the difference between AD and gWLM this way:

•In AD, an executable and arg[0] are compared directly to one another to make a match.

•In gWLM, the inode of an executable and the inode of arg[0] are compared to one another to make a match.

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.
