What is Management HTTP Server?
The Management HTTP Server is a web server embedded in much of the HP Web-Enabled
System Management software.
Overview
After a product that uses the Management HTTP Server has been installed and configured, a
few things occur the first time the Management HTTP Server is initiated. Upon initialization,
the Management HTTP Server creates a private key and a corresponding self-signed,
Base64-encoded certificate. This process only occurs the first time that the Management HTTP
Server is started. The certificate is stored on the file system as \compaq\wbem\cert.pem. The
\compaq\wbem subdirectory also contains the private key. To protect the key, this subdirectory
is only accessible to administrators if the file system enables it. For private key security reasons,
HP recommends that the Management HTTP Server be installed on Windows NT® file systems
(NTFS).
NOTE: For Microsoft Windows operating systems, the \compaq\wbem subdirectory must exist
on an NTFS file system for the private key to have administrator-only access through the file.
If the private key has been compromised, the administrator can delete the \compaq\wbem\
cert.pem file and restart the server. This action prompts the Management HTTP Server to
generate a new certificate and private key.
Logging in
The Login dialog box enables you to access any of the available Web agents. To access an agent,
complete the following steps:
Navigate to https://devicename:2381. The first time you browse to this link, the Security Alert
dialog box appears prompting you to indicate whether to trust the server.
1. Click Yes. The Login page appears.
