Hi all,
I'm trying to get HP System Management Homepage (SHM) to display info about my HP ProLiant DL360 G6 server. As of now, I can log into the web page (https://localhost:2381), but instead of the expected information I'm only "No items".
I'm suspecting that it has something to do with my SNMP setup. Is it so that the SHM issues SNMP commands to the local system in order to fetch system status?
I ran the /sbin/hpsnmpconfig script, and this is the resulting /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file:
-- code start --
[root@server snmp]# cat /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
# Following entries were added by HP Insight Management Agents at
# Fri Mar 25 13:28:23 CET 2011
dlmod cmaX /usr/lib64/libcmaX64.so
rwcommunity public 127.0.0.1
rocommunity public 127.0.0.1
trapcommunity public
trapsink 1.2.3.4 public
# ---------------------- END --------------------
-- code end --
I'm not very experienced with SNMP so I've probably answered something wrong in the script prompt, but I can't figure out what.
Both the snmpd and the hp-snmp-agents are running on the system. Using snmpwalk I can see that SNMP is returning a lot of information, so it looks like at lease something is correct:
-- code end --
[root@server snmp]# snmpwalk -v2c -c public -m ALL 127.0.0.1 |wc -l
8453
[root@server snmp]# snmpwalk -v2c -c public -m ALL 127.0.0.1 |tail -20

-- code end --
Can anyone spot any errors in my current setup, or could point me to some information on how to debug this myself? I've found a lot of documentation on HP web site, but haven't found any info that have helped me debug this thing.
Best regards

Re: Problems getting System Management Homepage to display system info
Your snmpd.conf looks fine provided you have a 64bit kernel.

Re: Problems getting System Management Homepage to display system info
I installed that templates package, and it seems to have made at lease one small difference - under the "Settings" tab i the SMH GUI, I now have one box "SNMP Webagent" and another box "System Management Homepage". Before installing the package I only had the latter.
I see that under "Data Source" in the top right corner of the SMH, there are no entries. How to I go about specifying which data source should be active? As far as I can see there are no places under "Settings" that allow me to do this.

Re: Problems getting System Management Homepage to display system info
If the SMH uses SNMP to fetch information about the system, may it be that it's the SNMP setup itself that's causing the problems? Maybe it's not returning all the information needed by SMH? Is there anything I can grep for when running that snmpwalk command I posted in the first post, to check that all the needed information is provided by SNMP?
Btw, I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but a couple of the SNMP sub-agents failes to start:
-- output start --
[root@server snmp]# service hp-snmp-agents restart|grep FAILED
Shutting down Rack Infrastructure Info Srv (cpqriisd): [FAILED]
Shutting down Rack agent (cmarackd): [FAILED]
[root@server snmp]#
-- output end --

Re: Problems getting System Management Homepage to display system info
I found that the documentation says that "The Data Source setting is only available if the HP Insight Management WBEM providers are installed.", but according to http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/System-Administration/WBEM-provider-for-proliant-Linux-server/m-p/4400864#M36091 "HP does not provide the WBEM provider for Proliant server". And of course, I'm running a Proliant server. :/
So it seems like this is not going to work. Are there any workarounds I can make use of?

Re: Problems getting System Management Homepage to display system info
1) uninstalled the RPM's
2) removed the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file
3) downloaded and installed the newest versions of the RPMs (i.e. hp-health, hp-snmp-agents, hpsmh and hp-smh-templates)
4) Ran the /sbin/hpsnmpsetup script
I did the exact same approach with the old RPMs, but didn't get things up and running before I used the newest RPMs.
Thanks for the help anyway!
