Default tools filtering

[John Manwaring]

Hi,

I am using HPSIM 5.0 and have a number of Solaris servers which have SSH installed. If I set the OS For Tool Filtering to LINUX and run a built-in UNIX/Linux tool such as PS (from the Tools, Command Line Tools menu) it works fine. If I set the OS For Tool Filtering to Unix and modify the PS tool definition to accept Unix operating systems it passes the initial Tool launch OK? stage but fails with an Operation system not valid error. Is there any way to overcome this other than changing OS For Tool Filtering to LINUX on all my Solaris servers?

Thanks,

John

hi,

a few questions to you:
-how are your servers running solaris discovered in HPSIM as far as the OS is concerned ? Does it say Linux or Solaris ?

If it says Linux(and it probably does according to what you wrote), then leave the tools filtering part as it is(set to linux) in the existing xml files or the ones you would add later on.
If it says Solaris, you can change the tool filtering to solaris but I doubt this the case.
