EVA 5k +Missing Perfmon

Karl Yost — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 20:36:35 GMT

I have several EVA 5k's in different locations and I use windows pefmon to pull stats from these. One of my SMA's is missing the following Perfmon entries:

HP EVA DR Tunnels
HP EVA Host Connection
HP EVA Host Port Statistics

My other SMA's are fine and show them all, I can't figure out where they went or how to get them back.

Thanks for the help.

Same version of Command View on all SMAs? Those counters are added when you install Command View.

Same version, it would appear it used to be there because our graphing used to work but at some point stopped.

Can I just reinstall command view? or does it need an uninstall first?

Karl,
You should be able to just install EVAPerf from the CV CD. You should not have to re-install the entire CV.

Here was the solution:

ISSUE:
Sometimes the EVA performance counters disappear from Windows perfmon .
SOLUTION:
This is not a solution for the disappearance of the counters, but a workaround to add them back into the registry easily.
Complete the following steps:

1.
Open a commandbox.
2.
c:\> cd C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\EVA Performance Monitor
3.
c:\> lodctr evapmext.ini

This will add the EVA performance counters back to the Perfmon registry keys.
To unload/remove the counters, complete the following steps:

1.
Open a commandbox.
2.
unlodctr evapmext
