Support for HP OpenView NNM
With the optional HP OpenView NNM Integration, the administrator can
access remote systems using both in-band and out of band techniques from a
common HP OpenView network node manager (NNM) view.
Device, Console, and User Group Management
Devices, consoles, and users can be grouped to further simplify the
organization and management of these system components. The administrator
may create, update and delete any of the groups at anytime through the web
management interface. Users can view only those groups to which they
belong or have access.
Blade Module
The AlterPath Manager supports blade management (that is, the IBM Blade
Center) through the plugged-in Blade Module. Blade configuration and
management is available through the web interface or CLI. The Blade
Module, once enabled, supports the number of chassis equal to the number of
DLS activations installed on your APM—up to 2048 chassis and up to 32768
blades/switches—just like any device or console.
Using the Blade Wizard, an admin user can create 14 blades and 4 switches.
All blades provide authorized users with CLI, KVM/IP, virtual media, and
power options. For security, Blade users are controlled by the Access Control
List (ACL) which is configured through the Security Rule option of the web
interface.
Note:
The Blade Management Module is a paid-for option for AlterPath
Manager users, and is hidden from users who do not need it.
Backup, Restore, and Replicate User Data
This feature allows users to create a backup of the AlterPath Manager
configuration, data, and log files. The backup includes data from the compact
flash, configuration data from the database, and log data from the console
buffer files. This feature also enables users to copy console log files to a
server for further analysis and archiving.
