The First Time Wizard provides you with step-by-step, online guidance for performing the initial configuration of HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM). The wizard helps you configure the following HP SIM settings on the central management server (CMS).

WBEM protocol
SNMP protocol
Automatic Discovery
User settings
E-mail settings
Automatic Event Handling


Note:


	When Automatic Discovery is selected, discovery runs when you exit the First Time Wizard. When it is deselected, which is the default, you must enable the default System Automatic Discovery task for discovery to run. Select OptionsDiscovery, and select System Automatic Discovery task. Click [Enable], to enable this task.

First Time Wizard

The wizard starts the first time a user with full-configuration-rights logs into HP SIM. If the wizard is canceled prior to completion, it restarts each time a user with full-configuration-rights signs in. You can cancel and disable the wizard from automatically starting by selecting the Do not automatically show this wizard again checkbox. The wizard can be manually started by selecting OptionsFirst Time Wizard. The First Time Wizard Introduction page appears.

Review your selections on the Summary Page and click [Finish] to save the settings. Automatic discovery runs immediately to populate the HP SIM database.


Note:


	The First Time Wizard configures only the basic settings in HP SIM. Refer to the Related Procedures and Related Topics for more detailed information.
