Managing the Compaq ProLiant Clusters HA/F100 and HA/F200 5-17 Cluster Group Hierarchy You can manage cluster groups at an appropriate level in the group hierarchy. Cluster groups are always displayed at the All Devices level, but cluster group shortcuts can be added to other groups. Filter Groups A filter groups dialog box is used to create, edit, or delete groups in the group list hierarchy. Cluster Address A cluster address acts as a proxy, communicating with different servers in the cluster depending on the state of the cluster. A Compaq Insight Manager device using a cluster address may switch communication from one physical device to another, which may result in erroneous information being delivered. Consequently, Compaq Insight Manager does not allow management of a device that uses a known cluster address. Compaq Insight Manager XE Compaq Insight Manager XE is the strategic direction for Compaq to provide systems management and administration from the Web. Incorporated within Insight Manager XE is Cluster Monitor, a real-time cluster monitoring system for ProLiant Clusters using Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0/Enterprise Edition and MSCS. The combination of Insight Manager XE and Cluster Monitor provides complete systems and cluster monitoring and management. Compaq Insight Manager XE extends management beyond a single system to management of multiple systems using a standard Web browser as the user interface. By enabling browser access to both the managed device and the management application, Compaq Insight Manager XE provides management of devices and groups of devices anywhere, anytime. Additionally, Compaq Insight Manager XE provides real-time management access to Web-enhanced devices and proxy management of traditional SNMP and DMI V2 systems. Compaq management agents provide health status to either Compaq Insight Manager or Compaq Insight Manager XE. The agents translate data supplied by the device drivers into useful information that assists the user in correctly diagnosing the problem. Compaq Insight Manager or Compaq Insight Manager XE then provide extensive information about how to address the problem, shortening the resolution time.

Cluster Group Hierarchy
You can manage cluster groups at an appropriate level in the group hierarchy.
Cluster groups are always displayed at the All Devices level, but cluster group
shortcuts
can be added to other groups.
Filter Groups
A filter groups
dialog box is used to create, edit, or delete groups in the group
list hierarchy.
Cluster Address
A cluster address acts as a proxy, communicating with different servers in the
cluster depending on the state of the cluster. A Compaq Insight Manager
device using a cluster address may switch communication from one physical
device to another, which may result in erroneous information being delivered.
Consequently, Compaq Insight Manager does not allow management of a
device that uses a known cluster address.
