HP BladeSystem Enclosure Monitor Manager

HP BladeSystem Enclosure Monitor Service requires user configuration for the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator to start monitoring an enclosure. Monitor Manager enables you to configure the required credentials and configuration information.

The Monitor Manager supports the Monitor Service only with the same installation package. If you see any incompatible version issue, update the Monitor Manager and Monitor Service with the same installation package, and then verify that you entered the correct IP address or DNS name.

You can launch Monitor Manager during the last step of the Management Pack installation.

After you install the Management Pack, you can access Monitor Manager from the Actions pane in the Enclosure diagram and Monitor service views. You can also launch Monitor Manager from the Start menu or command line.

The Monitor Manager task only appears in the Monitor Service State view when at least one enclosure is registered.

Monitor Manager contains the following panes:

• Tree pane (left)—This pane can be collapsed and expanded. The pane contains a tree that displays connected Monitor Service and enclosures managed by the Monitor Service. The tree has a root node of the HP BladeSystem Enclosure Monitor Manager. The second level lists the connected Enclosure Monitor Service. The third level shows enclosures managed by Enclosure Monitor Service.

  The Tree pane also displays the status of the Monitor Service and the BladeSystem enclosure monitoring status.

• Detail pane (middle)—The content of this pane changes according to the node selected from the Tree pane.
• Actions pane (right)—This pane can be collapsed and expanded. The content of this pane changes according to the node selected from the Tree pane.

The status line, located at the bottom of Monitor Manager, displays the following messages:

• Ready—There is no problem with Monitor Service.
• Failed with Monitor Service—Monitor Manager failed to communicate with Monitor Service

  Wizard and data autorefresh are disabled. See "Refreshing the data" to re-enable wizards and auto refresh.

• Connecting/Refreshing—An auto or manual refresh is in progress.
• Updating—The user launched a wizard, and the enclosure configuration is changing.
