Blade servers not apprearing correctly in HP Sim V4.2

[Dsmit]

Greetings , I have HP Sim V4.2 SP2 running on Windows 2000 system, I am having a problem that HP Blade servers and enclosures do not appear correctly. The enclosure firmware version is 2.30. The servers ilo version is 1.82 Also after having performed the discovery function, after the new blade servers where installed only the ILO ip address appear when servers are listed. Any idea on what could be causing this problem.and how I could solve it. Many Thanks Denis

There are known issues in rack views in versions of HP SIM prior to HP SIM 5 SP5. Please upgrade to the current version.

Many Thanks for your input.

The version of HP Sim that I have is the version that came with the blade servers that were very recently installed.

Does anyone know if HP SIM V5 is free to download and use and if no licence is required for using it.

Thanks
