Event Type Description
Sensor related Events associated with health-monitoring sensors on the hardware
platform. Sensor related events include: over-temperature, fan stalls,
and chassis intrusion detection.
Device failures Device failures refers to events for devices that are not monitored
through hard-wired sensors, such as an ECC memory failure.
Configuration changes When hardware configuration options are modified, or an attempt is
made to modify these options without proper authority, HP CMI will
generate related events to provide a mechanism to monitor and audit
the interface from within the enterprise.
Available Software Products
HP Client Management Interface is included standard on select new HP business client computer
models. An HP CMI Software Provider is also available for legacy models. In addition, several HP
Client Management Solutions leverage the features of HP CMI.
HP Client Management Interface Software Provider
The HP CMI Software Provider, available as a SoftPaq downloadable from HP.com, extends many of
the capabilities of the HP Client Management Interface for legacy HP business computers. While the
HP CMI Software Provider does not contain all the features and flexibility of native HP CMI support,
the Software Provider allows IT managers to reap many of the same benefits exposed by HP CMI on
their existing hardware infrastructure.
The following diagram shows how HP CMI Software Provider is a hybrid of the traditional
management agent framework and the WMI instrumentation management model exposed by HP
CMI.
