hpdiags: Permission denied

[Wist Marcel]

When trying to run a collection with the hpdiags tool locally on a ML530 server, I always get the negative response 'Permission denied':

----------------------------------------------
C:\hp\hpdiags>hpdiags -o test

HP Insight Diagnostics Version 7.0.0.1198A
Copyright (c) 2002, 2004 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.
\src\common\diagprocess.cpp(line 531), C:\hp\hpdiags\processinfo\hpdiagsai.exe.4724: mkdir failed. Permission denied
----------------------------------------------

I'm member of the administrator group. Does anyone know how to handle this? Thanks, Marcel.

P.S. this thread has been moved from ITRC server mgmt (Insight Manager 7) Forum to ProLiant Servers (ML,DL,SL) - HP Forums Moderator

Not sure what OS - but if it's 2008+ - Did you try running the same from an 'elevated' command prompt?
