Discovering an MSA2000 G2 Proxy Provider Discovery is the process of finding systems in the management domain so that they can be managed from the CMS by HP SIM. A system must first be discovered to collect data and track system health status. The primary source for automatic discovery is ping sweeps configured in the automatic discovery tasks page. Other sources might include receiving events from unknown systems or from a management processor that has information about a server. Identification automatically runs on discovered systems. Event-based automatic discovery is disabled by default. You can perform discovery only if you have administrative rights. To discover an MSA2000 G2 Proxy Provider 1. In HP SIM, click the Discovery link in the Options tab. 2. Click New and create a new task to discover the MSA2000 G2 Proxy Provider. You must specify the IP address. 32 Integrating the Proxy Provider with HP SIM
