FreeBSD/UNIX/LINUX management agents

[Joshua Rock]

Can I added FreeBSD agents to my Windows Server based HPSIM console? If so where do I download the agent?

[Rob Buxton]

I've not seen any FreeBSD Agents, but you can get agents for SUSE & Redhat as well as a couple of Unix variants.

hi

Question should be : Can I manage ProLiant servers running FreeBSD with an HP SIM server running on windows?

HP SIM can managed devices running on multiple OS including linux. However the default supported linux based OS are the following :
Linux managed systems
Red Hat Linux 9

Red Hat Linux 8

Red Hat Linux 7.3 Workstation

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 for x86 with Update 1, AMD64 and EM64T with Update 1, and Itanium-based systems

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 x86 with Update 6, AMD64 and EM64T with Update 6, and Itanium-based systems

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 x86 with Update 9, AMD64 and EM64T with Update 9, and Itanium-based systems

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 for x86, AMD64 and EM64T with Service Pack 1, and Itanium-based systems

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 for x86 with Service Pack 4, AMD64 and EM64T with Service Pack 4, and Itanium-based systems

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 for United Linux 1.0 and Itanium-based systems

Integrity Virtual Machine Linux running guest on Linux

VMware GSX

VMware ESX 3.5

Concerning FreeBSD, I would advise you to read the following doc : PAge 26 onward :-) custom builds and packaging :
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00223285/c00223285.pdf

It should help you rebuild the HPASM, HPSMH packages.

Hope it helps
