Server Management Agents

[Louis Yssel]

I am using HP SIM 4.1 with a large Central Infrastructure and about 100 small branch office servers remotely running Windows 2000 Server. The hardware of the remote servers are Compaq Deskpro workstations. I need a way to remotely, through SIM monitor the services running on the remote Win2K machines. Does anyone know how this can be done and if I need a different agent, and if so, where do I get it?

SP25996 is the client agent? I'm not sure about service monitoring with that however..

I have tried to do everything and it seems that you can't monitor services running on a machine through HPSIM.Anyway monitoring this king of stuff will require a lot of network bandwidth and processing as well as memory usage on all the systems which will not be desirable.

with the server managemtn agents you can monitor status of running processes which then send traps to HP SIM.
