topic Data Collection pollution in Server Management - Systems Insight Manager https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/data-collection-pollution/m-p/3600879#M13547 I have noticed that if I turn on the WBEM "transport" in the Global Protocol Settings, historical data collection tasks starts to create erroneous and redundant entries for logical disks. For example, the database CIM_LogicalDisk table, gets polluted with the default description "Local Fixed Disk" rather than C: [NTFS], etc.<BR /><BR />If I turn off WBEM, the right disk descriptions re-appear in the SQL table, but Product Name and OS Name information disappear from the SIM Console screen.<BR /><BR />Has anybody experienced this weird behaviour? <BR /><BR />This would be solved if HP developpers could implement protocol assigments, allowing administrators to specifically select which protocol is assigned to specific tasks (data collection=SNMP, hardware polling=SNMP+WBEM, software polling=SNMP+WBEM+HTTP/HTTPS, etc.) Wed, 10 Aug 2005 13:12:35 GMT Daniel_340 2005-08-10T13:12:35Z Data Collection pollution https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/data-collection-pollution/m-p/3600879#M13547 I have noticed that if I turn on the WBEM "transport" in the Global Protocol Settings, historical data collection tasks starts to create erroneous and redundant entries for logical disks.
