Additional Insight Agents functionality The HP Insight Agents architecture provides additional functionality that is unique to the HP SIM solution environment. The HP Insight Event Notifier The HP Insight Event Notifier service provides a mechanism for the Insight Management Agents architecture to send e-mail notifications to specified recipients when alert events occur on the managed server. The Insight Event Notifier service is typically used as an alternative alerting mechanism when managing a small server installation (typically, fewer than ten servers) that does not require the full set of capabilities available through HP Systems Insight Manager. Figure 2 shows where the Event Notifier service fits within the of Insight Manager alert architecture. Although it is installed as part of the Insight Management architecture on managed servers, the Insight Event Notifier is disabled by default. An administrator can enable this service locally on a managed server through the Computer Management administrative tool. Once the service is enabled, an administrator can use the Event Notifier Configuration Wizard to configure the outbound Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server for sending the e-mail alerts as well as the list of notification recipients for the Event Notifier service. The configuration wizard is part of the HP Management Agents program group on the managed server (Figure 3). Figure 3. Running Event Notifier configuration. 10
