Re: New to the ESX support world
You can use Insight Control to capture your ESX and Linux hosts (without paying for and using the Virtual Machine Management Pack)
I suggest you request the Trail on the link anyway, and if you find the features valuable then you can purchase the rest of the HP Insight Control license.
If not, you can still use the interface to capture and report on all you Windows / ESX and Linux servers.

Re: New to the ESX support world
Expand the tar file and have a look at the Readme file.
There's also a file hpmgmt.conf.example that you can use with as a bit of editing to do a silent install. details in the readme file.
I recommend this as you get a consistent install of the agents and most importantly snmp. It should set up the RO and RW community names and trap destination.
Just like windows, snmp is used for identification and traps, so snmp comms is two way.
It mostly looks the same except you don't have a VCA.

Re: New to the ESX support world
Rob, That's just what I needed but I didn't know how to do any of that in the Linux world. I found someone that tinkered with Linux before and we hammered though our first install. I used WinSCP to upload the file and PuTTY to connect. This is the first time I've ever connected to a Linux box.
Anyway thanks for the responces I have 3 of the boxes reporting back to my HP SIM server now so I think I have and idea what needs to be done.
