Informational
Reports
Systems Insight Manager performs comprehensive system data collection and enables you to quickly produce
detailed inventory reports for managed systems. Reports can be generated in Hyper Text Markup Language
(HTML), XML, or Comma Separated Value (CSV) format. Enhanced reports can be automatically generated
and e-mailed on a scheduled basis. The type of data collected depends on the management software (SNMP
agents or WBEM/WMI providers) that is installed.
Automatic event handling
Automatic event handling enables you to define an action that Systems Insight Manager performs when an
event is received. These actions can include running a program or script, forwarding the event to another
management system, clearing the event, or notifying a user through e-mail or pager.
Tools and tasks
Tools are actions you perform on the managed systems from within Systems Insight Manager's GUI or CLI.
Many tools ship with Systems Insight Manager, but you can also add your own custom tools. Tasks are
instances of running tools. To create a task, select
target systems
(systems or events that the task will work
on) and then select the tool from the Systems Insight Manager menu. Tasks can be run immediately or
scheduled, and you can view task results by selecting ToolsView Task Results.
Tools can be run from the Systems Insight Manager menus and can be added to a Quick Launch list that is
available from many pages within Systems Insight Manager.
Collections
Collections are groups of systems and events that can be used for viewing information, or as a way to specify
the targets for a tool. They can be created through the Customize link in the System and Event Collections
panel either by selecting specific systems to be included, or by specifying attributes to be matched. Once
created, they are displayed in the System and Event Collections panel for quick access. Shared collections
can be seen by everyone logging into Systems Insight Manager. Private collections can only be seen by the
user who created them.
You can bind event collections and system collections together and use them either separately or together.
For example, after you define a collection of Security Events, you can easy look at those events on any
system collection, such as Security Events on All Servers or Security Events on My FinancialServers.
Conversely, you can choose a system collection, and view any set of events on those systems. For example,
you can easily select My FinancialServers and look at All Events, Sign-in Events, Security Events, or any other
event collection as it applies to that collection of systems.
Users and Authorizations
Systems Insight Manager enables effective delegation of management responsibilities by giving system
administrators granular control over which users can perform specific management operations on specific
systems.
