SMI-S Pegasus service stops

[S-tog a s]

Hi Forum,

I'm running the following on my W2k3 appliance server.

EVA Provider=5.0
Pegasus=2.5.0.34

The appliance is working fine expect that the Pegasus CIM Object Manager service stops once in a while.

The Problem is that HPSIM isn't populated with the SAN data when the autodiscovery run each Sunday because the Pegasus service wans't running.

The only error I can find is the following Event ID: 7034 The Pegasus CIM Object Manager service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s).

I'd like to upgrade to Command View 6 but I'm told that the SMI-S isn't ready just yet.

Any suggestions!?!

Only to get hold of CV EVA 6.
I was having a number of problems with CV EVA 5, including one where the Pegasus server on the CV EVA Server would restart whenever a connection was made to it. And no SAN Data could be collected.
CV EVA 6 installed simply and I now get complete data collection. It seems pretty stabled as well.

Hi Rob,

I'm now running:

EVA Provider=6.0
Pegasus=2.5.1.19

but if I run a Datacollection on the SAN I get the following error:
An error occurred connecting to this system with the WBEM protocol. Check the system configuration.

If I run the discovery test I get the following:
C:\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight Manager>wbemdisco SERVERNAME 5989 root/pg_int

HOST = Servername
PORT = 5989
NAMESP = root/pg_interop

Any suggestions since yours are working fine!?! as I mentioned I heard that the SMI-S wasn't ready in CV6...is that not true? or do I need an update...

I've the following WBEM set ups.
WBEM enabled in the Global settings.
For the Server hosting CV EVA I use the server specific WBEM Settings and have the Global ones plus a second set of credentials that match the one that works in the wbemdisco command which just for good measure have the port number entered as well.
Then you need to run a Discovery, I just create a new Discovery task and include the CV EVA Server.
I seem to recall I may have deleted the old EVA from HPSIM before rerunning the Discovery task.

Hi Rob,

I've removed the appliance and SAN entry from SIM.

made a new discovery, datacollection, identify and SW polling of the appliance box.

I got back the appliance box but not the SAN.

So I made a discovery of the SAN but it doesn't have any connection with the appliance box so running a datacollection result in a "The device does not have any supported instrumentation."...which isn't good...

The SAN should be discovered through the appliance.
I've abandoned SMA's and just have CV EVA and all of the associated products installed on a Server. So from HPSIM click on the server name for the appliance, then the Tools & Links tab and select System Protocol settings and update the wbem to use server specific properties. If you use wbem globally, enter those in 1, and then enter the wbem for cv eva. I've used the default administrator and also entered the 5989 port number.

Then do a Discovery of the appliance. The discovery process should pick up the EVA.

Hi Rob,

It just doesn't work. I can telnet to 5989 from the HPSIM server and looks good.

I still get the following read out which doesn't look good to me...

This is a read out from when it was working with CV5 - as you can see the difference is that it can see the namespaces for the SA...

Claus,

I did my CV EVA 6.0 installation on a new Server that had no previous CV EVA installations.
Did you do an upgrade from 5?

The section you're reporting as missing I do get in my wbemdisco command using 6.0.
