SIM Events in MOM 2005

HAKI_1 — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 06:12:16 GMT

Hi

We have SIM 5.1 SP1 and MOM 2005 SP1. HP Insight Management Pack is already installed.

We would like to see the SIM Events (especially hardware issues of ESX boxes) in MOM.

How can that be achieved?

Thanks,
Hannes

Mom is primary a windows event monitor. By installing the Mom IM mgmt pack, your Insight Agents events within a Windows server will be reported in Mom. However, hardware issues in a ESX server will not be reported in Mom since there are no Mom agents running on a ESX host.
All hardware issues of an ESX box is noticed in Sim. One can use automatic events handling within Sim to create events in the eventlog of that Sim server, provided that you run Sim on a Windows server. Then you can create Mom rules (if necessary) to trap these events within Mom.

Thanks for your input!

Your idea came to my mind as well and i successfully implemented it that way. So for so good.

Going one step further I'd like to mark issues in SIM as solved, as soon someone mark them as solved in MOM ... Any idea?
