Monitoring HP Proliant Servers with Windows 2008 Operating System

[Robert Babayan]

Hi Guys,

We currently have HP System Insight Manager Ver: 5.1 which is monitoring Windows 2003, 2000, NT 4.0 servers. We are in a planning process to upgrade HP System Insight Manager Ver: 5.1 to the latest version to support primarily Windows 2008 ( 64-bit )operating System and then 32-bit version of it.

I would like to know the answer to the following questions:

1- Current HP SIM 5.1 console is running on Windows 2003 standard edition ..What version of HP Insight Manager console do we need to upgrade to so, it will manage primarily Windows 2008 servers (64-bit ) and 32-bit clients e.g. Windows 2300,2000,NT4.0 SP6A ?

2- What version of the HP Proliant Support pack do we need to install with our SOE builds which will support primarily Windows 2008 (64-bit) and then 32-bit version of Windows 2008 and Windows 2003, 2000, NT4.0 SP6A?

Looking forward to your response to the above questions, please !

Cheers,
Robert
