HP SIM 7.5.0 and Host File

[erki72]

I have updated HP SIM to version 7.5.0.
Now I have new server, these must integrated with the HostFile into HP SIM.

I'm wearing a new server in the host file. When i click "ok" I get the following message from SIM:

""There was a problem with your request, please try again later""

Any ideas to the message?

Hello,

The post is a little vage, could you post a screenshot of the error?

You use a hostfile to add your servers?

[erki72]

Yes. I use a hostfile.

After editing i would like to save.

The message then:

I still have a 7.4 setup so i'm not sure if the file still needs to be a specific type of format, perhaps SIM can generate a sample file for comparison?

Not sure if this could be related, but I had the same experience when attempting to import CA-signed certs in 7.5.  After much time wasted, I found the root cause to be some missing Java jar files.

To fix the problem I downloaded the Apache Commons IO binaries and extracted the jar files to 

C:\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight Manager\jboss\server\hpsim\lib  

After restarting the HP SIM service, everything worked like a charm.

Hello,

Strange thing is that there is no hotfix available yet so i would think it's not a known issue. But then again most people do updates from previous versions. I' ll install the 7.5 on a clean test setup and see what happens.

This solution works :-)
