Alex,
The discovery failed because we had a problem parsing the data in the Service Descriptor Table. The Service Descriptor Table contains the list of running services, what the run state (running, stopped, etc), and what programs loaded them. HPSUM didn't generate a srvdiscovery.xml file which it merges into discovery.xml during the discovery process. When I've seen this before, it has meant one of two things.

1) The server is running in a language setting other than English or Japanese. We had a bug in HPSUM in the 7.90 PSP where it didn't work in non-English language environments. This has been fixed for the next version due out next month.

2) There was data returned from the services table that contained special characters (path to a file, language-specific tags other than English, or within a service name) that did not work with our discovery tool. We had an issue reported on this and fixed it, but it may not be in a version of HPSUM available to you until 1Q08.

In the meantime, there are a couple of things you can do to resolve this.

1) Change the language setting in your locale to English when you run HPSUM (or setup.exe, which now just calls HPSUM) and change it back afterwards.

2) Use the Remote Deployment Utility (RDU) out of the PSP 7.80 to deploy the PSP 7.90.

mmm nice to kwno where the HP SUM keeps the log file "%TEMP%\hp_sum"


Alex also you can copy and paste
%TEMP%\hp_sum on Start Button -> Run

and it is going to open the TEMP directory

Hello,
I want to confirm the steps what I need to do.
1. Shutdown the backup device
2. Run firmware CD 7.5 (can I run from the windows?).
3. Try to install PSP 7.8

Alex,
There are a couple of things to do, but not what you have down.

1) If you think the SCSI device is causing the failure, disconnect it from the server.
2) Run HPSUM to install the PSP 7.90.

That's all you should need to do if you think the device is causing the problem.

If you are running in a non-English OS, do the following:

1) Go to Control Panel and change the "Regional and Language Options" and set your language to English.
2) Run HPSUM to install the PSP 7.90.

If you want to run the older RDU, copy the setup.exe, msxml3.cab, setupcor.dll, elmsetup.dll files to the same directory as the PSP 7.90. Run setup.exe to launch the older RDU product.

Regards,
Michael

that's correct

1. Shutdown the backup device
2. Run firmware CD 7.5 (can I run from the windows?).
3. Try to install PSP 7.8 or PSP 7.9

let's try and let us know

[KarloChacon]

sorry I did not see this

2. Run firmware CD 7.5 (can I run from the windows?).

you can apply Firmware online or booting from CD

it up to you

in online installation the HDDs are not going to be updated

So, I tried and it doesnâ t work.
I shut down the backup device and started the firmware management CD from windows.
It is something was installed and by the way itâ s started PSP and looks like it did some discovery. When it was done, it show me is server donâ t need any update (the latest firmware for ROM BIOS was from 2002)
The second try it was to run PSP 7.9 and gave me the same message Discovery Failed.
The third try it was to run PSP 7.8. It was gave me on the end: installation failed.

ok

let me picture this

so when you start firmware CD 7.5 server says it is not supported? is that 7.5?
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/24777.html

something else it seems that when you run PSP 7.8 the Failed Discovery message does not appear just that big log regarding System management homepage right?

do you have the SNMP Service(protocol) install on windows?
you can check that checking SNMP Service on windows Services

am I right with my points or you have something else to add?
