Getting started

After you install the SHR application, you must perform the following configuration tasks to ensure that SHR is operational and can start collecting data from the various data sources:

Task 1: Perform the post-install configuration tasks

You must perform the post-install configurations tasks immediately after installing the SHR application. These tasks help you set up the SHR database user account details and define the database schema. This guide provides a brief overview of the post-install configuration tasks. For the step-by-step procedure to perform these tasks, see the HP Service Health Reporter Installation and Configuration Guide Chapter 4, "Configuring SHR."

Task 2: Configure the topology source

After you finish installing the Content Pack components, you must configure the topology sources from where SHR can retrieve the topology information about your environment. For more information, see Managing the enterprise topology.

Task 3: Install the Content Pack components

After you perform the SHR post-install configuration tasks, you can select and install the required Content Pack components. The selection of the Content Pack components depends on the type of your SHR deployment environment. For the step-by-step procedure for installing the Content Packs, see the HP Service Health Reporter Installation and Configuration Guide Chapter 5, "Selecting and Installing the Content Packs."

Task 4: Configure the data sources

After you finish configuring the topology sources, you can configure the data sources from where SHR data collectors can collect fact data for the various installed Content Pack components. For more information, see Configuring and managing data collection.
