Compaq Insight Manager Software Architecture The Compaq Insight Manager software architecture is typical of other network management solutions. It has a client/server architecture and is composed of agent software (Compaq Insight Management Agents) and the management application software (Compaq Insight Manager). Insight Management Agents Insight Management Agents operate on Compaq systems (such as servers and workstations), performing in-depth monitoring of the state of the system by collecting and measuring system parameters. These parameters indicate the current state of subsystems by counting the occurrence of particular events (for example, the number of read operations performed on a disk drive) or monitoring the state of a critical function (such as whether the cooling fan is operating). Insight Desktop Agents operate on Compaq Deskpro™ computers, monitoring functions that include temperature sensing and disk prefailure alerting. Insight Agents provide information to management applications, such as Compaq Insight Manager, and can generate alarm notifications if significant changes occur in the fault or performance aspects of system operation. Information is delivered to and from the Insight Agents by the industry-standard SNMP. Compaq Insight Manager Compaq Insight Manager delivers intelligent monitoring and alerting as well as visual control of the Compaq hardware. In the unlikely event of hardware failures, Compaq Insight Manager also provides a full complement of remote maintenance and control facilities.

Compaq ProLiant DL580 Server Maintenance and Service Guide
■
In Compaq servers, every hardware subsystem (such as disk storage, system memory, and
system processor) has a robust set of management capabilities. Compaq Full-Spectrum
Fault Management prevents faults before they happen, keeps the system up and running in
the unlikely event of a failure, and delivers rapid server recovery to normal operation after
a fault.
Compaq Insight Manager Software Architecture
The Compaq Insight Manager software architecture is typical of other network management
solutions. It has a client/server architecture and is composed of agent software (Compaq Insight
Management Agents) and the management application software (Compaq Insight Manager).
Insight Management Agents
Insight Management Agents operate on Compaq systems (such as servers and workstations),
performing in-depth monitoring of the state of the system by collecting and measuring system
parameters. These parameters indicate the current state of subsystems by counting the
occurrence of particular events (for example, the number of read operations performed on a disk
drive) or monitoring the state of a critical function (such as whether the cooling fan is
operating).
Insight Desktop Agents operate on Compaq
Deskpro
™
computers, monitoring functions that
include temperature sensing and disk prefailure alerting.
Insight Agents provide information to management applications, such as Compaq Insight
Manager, and can generate alarm notifications if significant changes occur in the fault or
performance aspects of system operation. Information is delivered to and from the Insight
Agents by the industry-standard SNMP.
Compaq Insight Manager
Compaq Insight Manager delivers intelligent monitoring and alerting as well as visual control of
the Compaq hardware. In the unlikely event of hardware failures, Compaq Insight Manager also
provides a full complement of remote maintenance and control facilities.

Compaq Insight Manager User Guide

Server Documentation CD that accompanied the server.
