HP SIM - EVA integration problem

Alejandro Gomez Lopez — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 02:22:30 GMT

I have read dozens of documents regarding EVA - HP SIM integration yet I still can't make the HP SIM see the EVA's LUNs and futher information. At most, I get the "WBEM" value under Health Status at the System status, but there is no trace of LUNs, ports, etc.

Since HP SIM and Command View are running on the same server, I had to change the wbemportlist.xml, cxws.properties and cimserver_planned.conf files with no success. With the current configuration I have SMI-S running on 5988 (http) and 60000 (https) and WMI running on 5989. Plus, I have browsed the WEBES page and I can see a red cross on what seems to be a WBEM-WMI component under the ELMC-CV-EVA node on the navigation pane , but have no idea why it is happening.

Maybe I should try using SNMP event notification instead of WBEM, but I wonder if LUN information will be visible with that option.

Thanks in advance.

If you want to see port and Lun information of your EVA you need to test the connection to the SMI-S You will find the wbemdisco tool in your HP SIM directory. As soon as you can see the eva entries at the end of the wbemdisco output you can define the same credential inside HP SIM for the port and after a new identify and data collection operation you should see more details for your storage.

Check also the troubleshooting section of your HP SIM online help.
