The system links that you can view depend on the Discovery configuration, the correct installation of agents and protocols, and the Polling Tasks that interrogate the system. The Tools & Links page includes:

In some cases, depending on the DNS configurations, you might need to use the IP address or a Fully Qualified DNS name to make the links work appropriately. Refer to Networking and Security - Configuring the System Link for more information.

System Management Pages

This section includes the links that are provided by the HTTP Web Management on the system. These links are for system management and status. If the system does not have Insight Management Agent, this section is not displayed. Some of the available links include:

  • HP Version Control Agent

  • HP Version Control Repository Manager

  • HP Insight Management Agent

System Web Application Pages

This section includes a list of Web applications hosted by the system. Some of the available links include:

  • VMware Management Interface

  • Default Web Server

  • HP SIM

HP Systems Insight Manager Pages

This section contains links that are generated by HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM). Some of the available links include:

  • The Data Collection Report link displays the data collection report for the system in a separate report results window.

    The storage tables in HP SIM's Data Collection reports are not populated with data because HP SIM's SMI-S data collection is disabled.

  • The System Protocol Settings link points to the Protocol Settings, where you can set the protocol settings for this individual system only.

  • The Edit System Properties link enables users with full-configuration-rights to re-configure some of the system properties for a single system through its system page. This link is not available if you do not have full-configuration-rights.

    Refer to System Properties - Editing System Properties for Multiple Systems for information on setting system properties for multiple systems.

  • The Suspend/Resume Monitoring link enables you to set the timer for suspending monitoring. This allows a system to be excluded from the status polling, identification, data collection, and the automatic event handling features of HP SIM. The available suspend lengths include the pre-determined increments of 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 1 hour and 1 day. The suspend feature can be turned on indefinitely. This link is only available to users with full-configuration-rights.

    Refer to System Properties - Suspending or Resuming System Monitoring for Multiple Systems for information on suspending or resuming monitoring for multiple systems.

Storage Essentials Pages

This section is added when HP Storage Essentials is installed. Refer to your HP Storage Essentials documentation for details about the links that are added.
