Can't initialize RSP with w2k8_R2_x64

[Terence Tsao]

Hello,

I installed the SIM 5.3+sp1 and RSP in DL380G4 with W2K8_R2_64 bit at customer site. They access internet via Proxy server and port 8080.
After SIM and RSP installation accomplished , I executed RSP initialize RSSM process ,but it always failed and showed “Failed to connect to HP Support Center. Please click back and verify your proxy setting. “

To find out the root cause, I performed the below test :
1. Installed the same version of SIM , RSP and W2K8_R2_64 bit at HP office and connected to HP proxy server , unfortunately it showed the same error like above.
2. Installed the same version of SIM and RSP but W2K3_R2_32 bit at HP office and connected to HP proxy server , fortunately it worked .
3. Installed the same version of SIM , RSP and W2K8_R2_64 bit at my home and connected internet via ADSL without proxy , fortunately it worked .
4. the same version of SIM and RSP but W2K3_R2_32 bit at customer site and connect to customer’s proxy, fortunately it worked .

So, I guess W2K8_R2_64 + proxy server is a issue , but I don’t know how to fix it. Who can help me.

Thanks a lot.

Hello Terence,
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 is significiantly different to Microsoft Windows Server 2008. Therefore, currently there is no support for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 on a ProLiant platform for either the Central Management Server/Hosting Device or as a monitored device.
It will probably be supported with the next release of Insight Remote Support.

Hello Frauke,

Thanks for your reply.
As your mention that w2k8r2 is no support either the Central Management Server/Hosting Device , but I really install SIM on BL35P with w2k8r2 and it's working now. I want to make sure RSP is not support on W2K8_R2 , so do you have any support matrix in hand and can email me ( tsao@hp.com ). I need to convince customer that reinstall SIM and RSP on w2k3_32bit.
Thanks alot.
