Modify many SMH from WBEM to SNMP

rijsbergen — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 07:45:22 GMT

When a PSP is used for deployment and the WBEM agents are also deployed the SMH is set to use WBEM as a default.

If you want to change this setting on many systems i do not see an option in 'configure or repair' and 'replicate agent settings.

How can you change this on many systems?

I have also run into this same issue. Is there any facility within SIM to change notification from WBEM to SNMP on multiple SMHs at the same time?

It appears that the following REG key affects this setting (or is affected by it):

\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Hewlett-Packard\WBEM\Switch\WebApp

A value of 1 = SNMP
A value of 2 = WBEM

However, when I try to change the registry manually, something else converts it back to its original value (so it if was 1, and I change it to 2, when I run SMH, it gets changed back to 1).

So then I tried manually changing it and restarting SMH service. But that did not work either.

There is some other piece missing, I just don't know what it is. I will keep digging.

Nice find Nelson! Definitely a start, I too will see what I can find out using the RegKey you posted as a starting point. If I also come across more I will post here.

Thanks for the reply!!
