Cannot subscribe to WBEM on any server SIM 6.3

[Jeramy]

I have upgraded a non used SIM server from 6.2 to 6.3.
I am able to setup the trust by certificate, have setup the Version control agents, and e-mail.
However if i try to subscribe to WBEM events i get "Cause: Subscription infrastructure is not present or corrupted".
I have used the "configure and repair agents" option to add the domain user to the remote server to access the WBEM events, and the SMH on the remote servers looks like it working, just cant get the SIM server to recconize this.
I have re-booted
unsubscribed, then try to subscribe,
disabled the firewall
uninstalled, re-installed, forced re-install, formatted the whole system and re-installed
checked i was using the correct password, and still getting the same error.
Any one know how to fix this?

additional info, SIM server is 2008 R2, off domain, Clients are 2008 R2, and 2008 R2 Datacenter Core all on domain.

tried to subscribe to a 2003 R2 server, and get this error
"FAILED to create indication subscription."

I'm getting the same issue and also it regulary says 'Timeout Occurred' when i do it form the GUI. If i do it form the commandline using the mxwbemsub command it works fine ;)

i get the the same error message verbatim if i use the command line

You have the WMI Mapper installed on your SIM servers and have SIM pointing at it?

Try the following:

- Pick a serverw itht he HP WBEM providors installed on them. Note: make sure the hardware/OS is supoprted for the version of the providors
- Discover the device in SIM
- Manually set the WBEM credetials to use in the 'System Credentials' pane
- Ensuer this account has local admin privledges on the traget server or that you have altered the WMI security appropriayely for a standard account to subscribe
- Check that all firewalls are not blocking access
- try and subscribe to indications via the command line

well, i got it working with the local administrator. Going to check a domain user with admin access, then the configured user with out admin access.
Configure WBEM / WMI user (START) ...
Configure WBEM / WMI user ...... ................................... [SUCCESS]



Set WBEM / WMI user credentials to System protocol settings ........ [SUCCESS]
Re-identifying system to get updated information (START) ...
Re-identification of system .................................... [SUCCESS]

Subscribe to WBEM / WMI Indications ................................ [SUCCESS]

Checking whether the HP SIM CMS can login to the SMH URL " https://servername:2381/ "
Login to the SMH using certificate.............................. [SUCCESS]

So you got it working without using an Admin account? I never could get it working using a non-admin account.

I have all my subscriptions running under a normal user but you must alter the WMI security on certain namespaces in order to get it tow rok. this is documented in the configuration guides for the WBEM providors.
