Insight Manager Configuration on Linux DL380G3 how to?

[George Quist]

Hello...

looking for a "how to setup" guide to allow me to get my Insight Manager view working on a DL380 G3 server running Redhat ES v3.. New adventure for me.. The system Admin tells me he downloaded the V7.10 Support pack and installed THAT.. What steps are next ??
thanks,
George Quist

Take a look here for the on-line version of the documentation:

Here it is in PDF:

Here is the IM Help Guide:

Hope this gets you started! -john

Once the agents from the support packs have been installed the only thing left to configure in regards to the insight agents it the SNMP parameters. The default settings are to have your community strings as public (lowercase) and also to have the strings set to Read_Create

Hope this helps
