disk broke on ibm server

luca1 — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 13:53:16 GMT

Hi,
I installed sim 6.3 for manage HP server. In my network I have also some IBM server (X3650, X3400 and DS3400 storage).
When I discover IBM server I read in system type "unknown" and read green box only for HS field.
How I must discover IBM server and storage. I will use sim main for detect disk broke, power supply broke and memory broke. On the IBM server I configured (as on hp server) comunity and snmp settings on snmp services.

Thanks

Jonh

Did you get to know something on this?

You would need MIBS imported into SIM for the IBM server and also some agents/method on that server to send traps when a hardware error is encountered.

I guess, HP SIM is recommended for "HP devices" ONLY?
Does HP SIM works in the same fashion(Functionality wise & data collected from managed system) for Non-HP devices also?

Again, depends on whether you can get the MIBS into SIM and agents on the server to send traps. traps are sent with just the SNMP OID in them so the MIBS decode these into a meaningful alerts at the SIM end.
