Replicating Agent Settings

Brian Dororh — Wed, 06 Sep 2006 16:46:46 GMT

I have three new DL360's running Server 2003 RC2. I can't get any of them to repliate agent settings from within Insight Manager. The error I get is:
"Could not contact the agents to initiate a secure session, the HP web agent(s) may be stopped, uninstalled or downgraded."
I don't see any obvious problems...

#1 make sure you re firewall it stoping it.
#2 did verify you're event log if anything freaky is showing up?
#3 did try uninstalling/reinstallating?
#4 are you agent the most recent one?

this first step of looking at this..may be it level 1...we got to start somewhere !

Which PSP did you install on them? Also, replicate agent settings requires a valid trust relationship. But you probably would have gotten a different error message. If the System Management Homepage is running on those systems you might want to check the SMH security settings and make sure there are not any IP filters set.

Try installing OpenSSH first (from the Deploy menu).
