No Data Available

[Jason Hindson]

I am running HP SIM 5.0 connected to a remote SQL 2000 db. I recently upgraded from 4.2 SP2 and things appeared to be working correctly for a while.

When I log in now, however, I receive the message No Data Available in the Systems and Events frame along the left side of the window. I can't view any events or view any of the data. I did look at the SQL database briefly and say data in the devices table, so I believe the data is still there, just not accessible via SIM. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks.

Check if the authorizations are staying intact after the upgrade. If not, please apply the appropriate authorizations to the users and then login to SIM.

Allthough this might be not the ultimate solution this one worked for me.
This is a bit of a destructive method because it clears most entry's in your database.

The command "mxinitconfig -r" clears your database and the command "mxinitconfig -a" rebuilds your database. After I've run these commands and reconfiguring some entry's (discovery, users etc.) I've ran a discovery and voila I can run the reports with the correct data.

What I didn't try is to skip the mxinitconfig -a first. This might rebuild you database with the correct entry's without removing the current data.

Hope to be of some help.

Hello Erwin,

after running mxinitconfig -a the system came back without any errors.

Thanks
