Guide to SIM

[Tom Valeriano]

I'm installing a SIM server in our datacenter, as my new boss is keen to it, but i've got little experience with it. Can anyone recommend a good source for information or a book for it? I've read the technical reference guide and its like reading stereo instructions.

hi

the information library on the HP SIM web site is certainly the place to start with.

However, the technical refernce guide might not be the best choice to discover the subject.

Try to take a look at this video first :
HP SIM Quick Start Overview
New!

Then may be :
» Getting started with HP SIM 5.2 in a smaller Windows environment :
http://h10018.www1.hp.com/wwsolutions/misc/hpsim-helpfiles/hpsim_win_51.pdf

and move on to the user guide :
http://docs.hp.com/en/418812-004/418812-004.pdf

Keep the technical refernce guide for long winter nights ;-) and for troubleshooting purposes...

Keep in mind also that services are available for HP SIM as well as trainings :
