HP SIM question

[stevenliutj]

Hi,

Our company is using product of HP SIM 5.3, and I encountered a question,.There is a equipment in all server systems, and Its HS( Health status) displays major severity, but when I click it to check its detail to find system status is normal of the equipment.

I have verified all setting for it, I didn't find any cue.

could you please provide some suggestion?

Many thanks

hi,

You can try to change the SMH data source and to check if the SMH will report any status.

What is the PSP version?

Hi,

Because I just touch SIM, could you please explain further detail for your answer?

Such as: how to find PSP version and SMH data source?

many thanks!

You also need to check the intervals at which SIM is polling the systems for hardware status. This is a task in SIM that run regularly to check the health of managed node.

hi,

So far, the issue is still existing.

Someone can provides any suggestions?

And adding some information, the server is VMWARE ESX sever, and there is empty in MP status,

and its ilo port' system name doesn't include host name(ESX server name).

[SwisspostIT]

if it is a ESX Host and your Health Status is allways "Major" it could be because of the NIC Ports!

as long as you don't have every NIC Port connected or disabled (which you acutally cannot do in ESXi) HP SIM recognizes this as an Hardware Failure.

[stevenliutj]

but, other ESX servers are nornal and may display health status is ok. someone knows other reason?

[stevenliutj]

Our ESX host is ProLiant DL380 G7, I don't know if SIM 5.3 supports the kind of server.
For your reference.

Youd should check integrated management log if you have uncleared events there, from System Management Homepage ---> Logs.
