Select managed systems
If you have not selected valid target systems, the wizard prompts you to do so using the Select Target Systems and Verify Target Systems screens in HP SIM.
Each system must be fully discovered and have valid credentials stored within HP SIM.
•Select and configure management features
You configure management features for the selected systems with the following steps in the managed system setup wizard. The wizard does not change anything on the managed systems until after you select Run Now during the Summary step.
◦Select Features
Specify the management features you would like to configure for the selected managed systems.
As you select features the wizard automatically selects any necessary dependencies for you.
◦Choose Options
Set options for any selected management features that have them, overriding any default (or previous) settings.
◦Analyze Systems
The wizard analyzes the target systems to determine what actions, if any, are required to meet the configurations you specified on the Select Features page and Choose Options page. The analysis of each system determines whether licenses, agents, or other configuration tasks are needed to enable the selected management features and options.
All failed analysis must be resolved before you can continue to the next step.
◦Select Licenses
Choose from the available product license options, if any, to apply to the managed systems. These are the licenses needed to enable the selected management features.
For details see “Applying licenses” (page 6).
◦Set Credentials
Enter credentials needed to perform configuration steps on managed systems when HP SIM does not already have the credentials stored (for example, when SSH is not installed on the managed system).
◦Summary
Review the operations that will be performed to enable the selected management features and initiate the configuration of the managed systems.
When Run Now is selected in this step, the selected management features for each system are saved, needed licenses are applied, needed agents are installed and other configuration steps are performed.
◦Results
View the HP SIM task results for the configuration steps performed at the conclusion of the previous step.
Applying licenses
The Insight managed system setup wizard Select Licenses page enables you to select from the available product license options, if any, and choose which licenses will be applied to the target systems to enable the selected management features. If no features require additional licenses you will not need to use this page.
