Log In

In the Internet Explorer address bar, enter in the HP SAM web server name with “/manage” added to the URL (for example, http://HP SAMservername/manage). Use “https:” if the HP SAM administrative console has been set to require SSL.

If SSL is configured and a certificate-related security pop-up message is displayed, click Yes.

Once you get to the logon page, enter username, password, and click the Sign In button. You have two ways to enter in your username. It can be entered as domain\username or your User Principal Name (UPN) (yourname@yourcompany.com).

General Navigation and User Interface Design

The HP SAM administrative console is designed with tabs and hyperlinks for navigation. Depending on the tab, there could also be a filter option section. The main work space or result list is at the bottom of the page.

Display More (or Fewer) Items Per Page

The system defaults to show only a certain number of items per page. Select a new value (10, 25, 50, 100, 250, or 500) in the Show field to change this number. The page will immediately be updated to reflect this new setting.

Move Columns

The system displays the result data grid in a certain way. You can move the columns by dragging and dropping the column header to the appropriate place within the grid.

Sort Result List

Whenever there is a result grid, you can sort by any of the column shown. Click on the appropriate column header to sort by that column. Click on the same column header to toggle between descending and ascending.

Select More Than One Item

The top left side of the result grid includes a check box.

To select all items on all pages, not just the page shown, select this check box.

To clear all boxes on all pages, not just the page shown, clear this check box.
