Compaq servers, linux agents and ...

Hi all,

I have such a case: I have 150 compaq servers running RH Linux with
installed Compaq agents. Is a server side software installed on w2k system
which store information from other servers with Linux agents receive
remotely ?

Thx,
FO

If I understand you question correctly, the answer is :

Insight Manager XE

Your 2000 server will need SQL or MSDE installed to act as the database for
the even repository.

All machines need to be configured for SNMP and your linux servers need the
XE machine to be thier TRAP DESTINATION. They all need the same Community
String as well.

Once you configure SNMP on the linux boxes, you can use XE to scan subnets
to discover devices. You can build in MIB's for other SNMP capable devices
as well.

That should give you a nudge in the right direction.

recall.

HP Systems Insight Manager also runs on Linux, so you won't need a Windows
system.
