Identifying issues with hardware components

HP SIM, using HP Insight Management WBEM Providers for Windows, provides a way to identify
hardware components that may be having issues. This 'follow-the-red' strategy employs a
consolidated status available in the providers and displays the overall status on the Systems page of
the ProLiant manage node.
The WMI Mapper must be configured in HP SIM. For more information, see Configuring the WMI
Mapper in HP SIM.
The Systems page Health Status link reflects the status from the providers. Select the Health Status link
to navigate to the System Management Home page, if the page is installed. If SMH is not installed,
the Health Status link will navigate to the SIM Property Page Status tab. Both navigation methods
allow the user to find the components that have potential problems.
The following example illustrates a Major status in HP SIM. Figure 21 shows the location of the Health
Status link. Selecting the Health Status link launches the SMH. SMH then shows the Major status is
traceable to the Network components, specifically the NC371i Adapter #2, as shown in Figure 22.
