Error in Ditributed Package XML file.

Recently I tried to install a

I had the same results as the user in this thread:

His fix did seem to fix the register host issue. I reviewed the vmmsrc.xml file from package hpvmmagent.tar on a new install of SIM 5.1


VmmService

inbound
tcp

1124
1126

-m state --state NEW


outbound
tcp

1124
1126

-m state --state NEW




This file is not properly loaded via the install script to the services.xml file. Maybe due to the at the end?

I had to manuall add it and enable for firewall access from the SIM.

My issue now is it does not seem to be registering the vm on the host, error:

Host has no VMs registered

Note:
1) All VMs do show identification as VMware Virtual Platfor... in the SIM Product Colume.

2) I do have another server (VM Server on Win32) that works fine after installing the VMM on that host. Host and VM's all show up properly.

P.S. I did put in a service call yesterday, but no one has returned my call yet. So I am seeking and help in getting this issue resolved.

Sorry left out a line:

Should have been:

Recently I tried to install the VMM agent on a ESX server to monitor it via SIM.

Note:

Another restart of the service:

service hpvmmcntsvc restart

...seems to have fixed this issue. I do think someone should review the vmmsrc.xml file and the install routine to fix this bug.
