Introduction to Configuration

The Network Management System provides functionality to configure general service functions, labels, operational settings, and the notification settings for alarms.

NOTICE

Access to the Configuration settings of the CMN service is restricted by User Account settings. Only the Vendor account can change settings in the CMN service.

WARNING

Changing configuration settings requires careful and deliberate planning. Some configurable elements can affect the state of your live system. Only experienced administrators should alter the device and component configuration settings.

CAUTION

Alarm settings are enabled as part of your grid installation. Changes to alarm settings should not be made for simple con- venience; this may conceal underlying problems that should be resolved. If you find an alarm is persistent, discuss the situation with HP technical support before making changes.

Each service’s Configuration tab has two pages:

Main page—used to customize the service/component state and labels, and to reset some attribute counters. Service components may have additional configurable settings. The contents of this page are discussed for each service starting on page 159.

Notification page—used to configure alarm settings. See “Alarm Configuration” below.
