Re: HP insight foundationagent service not running

We had the same problem on a couple of our servers. Log onto the server in question, uninstall the HP Management Agents. Reboot, reinstall the management agents and reboot again. This should take care of it.

There are no special steps and you should already have SNMP installed and configured. You don't have to stop the service before you uninstall the management agents.

Hi Rancher,

PSP 7.90 is the latest.

THis worked for me in each case where the Foundation Agents would not start.
1. Log onto the affected server.

2. Go to Contol Panel, Add or Remove Programs, and Remove the HP Insight Management Agents.

3. Reboot the server.

4. Install the HP Insight Management Agents
5. Reboot the server.

This should fix your problem
