HP P420 SIM

gurch1 — Tue, 24 Jan 2017 17:21:01 GMT

Hi All,

I have a P420 raid controller providing local storage to a machine running ESXi 6 and another P420 raid controller running on a Windows server 2012 r2 machine. Both are custom built using various hardware for a home lab
I have just installed HPE systems Insight manager to add both controllers for setting up SMTP disk alerts however I can't seem to locate them when using the discovery - can someone point me in the right direction for this?
Thanks

hi, both the storage server (desktop hardware) and the ESXi host (server hardware) are custom built and use various parts from different vendors

Not sure if this works for *your* servers (non Proliant), but SIM needs system management homepage and WBEM/SNMP agents running on the monitored server.

Have a look at "HPE Insight remote Support - Monitored Devices Configuration Guide".
