Introduction

Overview

Overview

The SFM software is a collection of tools used to monitor the health of HP servers running HP-UX. SFM retrieves information about a system’s hardware devices such as CPU, memory, power supply, and cooling devices. SFM operates within the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) environment.

WBEM is an industry-wide standards-based initiative to aid the management of large scale systems. WBEM has the following components:

A WBEM infrastructure, such as HP WBEM services. SFM uses the Common Information Model Object Manager (CIMOM) WBEM service to route query requests and responses between WBEM providers and clients. Clients must be compliant with the Common Information Model (CIM) (2.7) schema of the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF).

A WBEM-based network management application, such as the HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) and HP System Management Homepage (HP SMH), a user interface for controlling and monitoring resources within a large-scale system. SFM can use HP SIM to display query information for local and remote systems.

WBEM providers that obtain information. SFM includes instance and indication providers, which are one set of WBEM providers among many. SFM providers query and provide system hardware property and event information.

Introduction

Features and Benefits

Features and Benefits

SFM dynamically queries on request property information about a hardware device on a local or remote system. It offers the following features and benefits:

Displays information on standards-compliant graphical and command-line system management applications, such as HP SIM and HP SMH.

Operates within the WBEM environment.

Supports the Central Management Server (CMS) running on HP-UX, Linux®, or Windows®.

Enables you to view and administer WBEM indications.

Provides the same features and benefits as those found in the EMS Hardware Monitors.

NOTE

SFM is the future replacement of EMS Hardware Monitors.

Introduction

Providers

Instance Providers

On request, an SFM instance provider dynamically queries the local or remote system for the property information described in Table 1-1 and reports the information to the CIMOM.

Table 1-1

Instance Providers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Instance Provider

 

Description

The CPU Instance Provider gathers the

 

 

following types of information:

 

 

• Logical processor information, such as:

 

 

Current clock speed

Processor status information,

 

 

 

including configuration and

 

 

 

deconfiguration, failure status, and

 

 

 

active and inactive status

 

 

Load percentage

 

 

• Physical processor chip information,

 

 

such as chip revisions and architecture

 

 

revisions

 

 

• Location details, such as:

 

 

— Location attributes such as cabinet

 

 

 

number, cell number, slot number,

 

 

 

and so on. Only information for

 

 

 

filled slots is available.

Introduction

Providers

Indication Providers

SFM includes one indication provider called the EMS Wrapper Provider. This provider converts hardware events received from EMS Hardware Monitors into WBEM indications. The EMS Hardware Monitors constantly monitor the system hardware resources for any unusual activity. When any unusual activity is detected on a monitored resource, the EMS monitor that is monitoring the resource generates an event that includes details of the problem and notify the EMS Wrapper Provider through the EMS framework. The EMS Wrapper Provider receives these events and converts them into WBEM indications.

The EMS Wrapper Provider then reports these indications to the CIMOM. Using a WBEM-based management application, such as HP SIM, you can subscribe to and receive Event Monitoring Service (EMS) events generated on a remote system. On the system on which SFM is installed, you can use an SFM tool called EVWEB to view and administer events through the HP SMH interface.

NOTE

The terms events and indications are used interchangeably.

Chapter 1

Introduction

User Interfaces

User Interfaces

You can use two types of interfaces to view SFM provider queries: HP SIM and HP SMH. This section describes these interfaces.

HP Systems Insight Manager

HP SIM is a WBEM-based user interface for controlling and monitoring resources within a large-scale system. You can use HP SIM to create subscriptions and to view indications and instances on a remote system. You must install HP SIM on the CMS. You can use HP SIM to launch HP SMH.

HP System Management Homepage

HP SMH is a secure, Web-based management application. You must install HP SMH on a local system to view hardware configuration, status data, performance metrics, system thresholds, and software version control information. You can also launch HP SMH from HP SIM remotely.

Architecture

 

Figure 1-1 illustrates the architecture of SFM installed on a

 

PA-RISC-based client system. The client system is managed by the CMS.

Figure 1-1

Block Diagram of SFM on PA-RISC-Systems

The following list describes the sequence of events when a request is made for information:

1.The CIMOM receives requests from the CMS for device information.

2.The CIMOM converts the requests to a format that is deciphered by the SFM providers and directs the requests to the appropriate SFM provider, for example, the CPU Instance Provider.

3.The SFM provider queries the associated hardware device for property information.

4.The SFM provider returns the query information to the CIMOM.

5.The CIMOM conveys the responses from the provider to the CMS.

20

Chapter 1

Introduction

Architecture

Information can be viewed using HP SIM on the remote system and HP SMH on the local system.

The following list describes the sequence of events when an event is generated from an EMS monitor:

1.The EMS Wrapper Provider receives events generated by the EMS monitors through the EMS framework.

2.The provider converts these events into WBEM indications and reports these indications to the CIMOM.

3.The CIMOM directs these indications to EVWEB and to the CMS that has created subscriptions for indications. EVWEB then stores the indications either in the Event Archive or in your E-mail box, or both, depending on your configuration.

Indications can be viewed using HP SIM on the remote system and HP SMH on the local system.
