Windows Communication

[Gabe Matteson]

What is the prefered or default method of communication between the HPSIM and any windows xp/2003 machine? WBEM only, SNMP only or both? Does one rely upon the other? I am a little confused on the documentation. Thanks.

For Windows its WMI(WBEM)If you have installed WMI mapper and SNMP(mandatory) both.

great thanks, i got it to work with wbem. however i can't configure disk threshholds. it gives me this error - Could not set the disk threshold, the agent did not accept the request.
i tried to install the wbem hp agent but it says skipped because its not a proliant server...
