https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/hpsim5-1-and-sql/m-p/4282837#M34770 You'd need to check what HPSIM 5.1 is supported for.<BR />I don't think any version of HPSIM has been qualified on W2K8 as yet, but I'd suggest you will need to look at updating to the latest version of HPSIM. 5.1 is getting a bit old now.<BR /><BR />Not sure when support for SQL 2005 came in.
