HP SIM 4.2 help

Douglas Bell_1 — Tue, 08 Nov 2005 11:17:17 GMT

Hi All

I emailed the HP service desk asking if they had any programs that will allow me to monitor Hard drives in my servers and send an email alert if any of the drives go down.

They advised me to install HP Systems Insight Manager.

I have installed HP SIM 4.2 from my Proliant Pack, but I have no idea how to find my servers and how to start monitoring them for Disk Errors.

Hope you can help

Regards

Douglas Bell

HP SIM will give you more than just hard drives monitoring.
