SIM reports - configuration and comparison reports

Inesa Clinko — Thu, 12 Oct 2006 07:07:21 GMT

Hello!
I'm installing SIM 5.0 on hpux 11.23.
I have installed WBEM and Secure Shell /the
minimum software required/.

I intend to use it only for:

1. Collecting reports from my hpux-boxes about configuration: OS versions, Hardware, Software bundles, LUNs,interfaces and so on.

2.Making Snapshot Comparison reports by using snapshots with historical data about these systems./Using Reports-> Snapshot Comparison/

For regret I have 2 problems:

1. The reports are appatir in SIM, but cannot be exported to Excel:
"Unable to export data appair" in Excel window.

2.The report from Snapshot Comparison is
not "good" / I mean not in good view-format /.

If you have any experience with this, please help me.

Hi,
try this guide:
http://www.hp.com/wwsolutions/misc/hpsim-helpfiles/sys-book.pdf

About report, I seems to remember you can show report in csv format. Then it should be easy to import data in excel.
