HP SIM 5.3 with Update 1:
New Hardware support. You can now monitor and manage the leading HP G6, including BL280c G6, BL460c G6, BL490c G6, and BL685c G6 Server Blades.
Enhanced providers support for HP Insight Management WBEM provider 2.3 and Linux providers
HP SIM 5.3:
Support for display of IPv6 addresses HP SIM can display IPv6 address on the System page and data collection reports for the systems that are IPv6 enabled.
Improved Linux identification HP SIM uses SSH to gather basic system hardware information. Therefore, Linux is better identified because SSH gathers the serial number, product name, and UUID information.
Improved discovery and identification of ESX hosts HP SIM identifies ESX hosts, as a system type or subtype, through SSH identification if every other protocol fails. You must include a working user name and password pair for all ESX hosts configured in HP SIM.
Credentials management improvement A new sign-in credential is introduced. This credential can be used to sign into managed systems and is protocol independent. Each discovery task can have its own set of credentials, resulting in faster discovery process. In addition, the Configure or Repair Agents tool has been extended to use the sign-in credentials associated with each system. Additional hypervisor support Xen host and guest identification and association.
DTF enhancements HP SIM uses privilege elevation tools such as su and sudo to run tools on remote HP-UX, Linux, and ESX systems.
HP SIM provides login to a remote system with one unprivileged user and then elevates the privilege to run the tools.
Can launch tools on AIX and Solaris.
Manual discovery Manual discovery is available on the New Discovery section by selecting Discover a single system. Task results are available for single system discovery.
License usability enhancements Usability enhancements made to License Manager including:
- Easier view of available licenses
- Enhanced licensing information gathering
