Health Monitor bug with hpasmcli utility ProLiant DL360p Gen8

[Garrett_ComSysA]

Finding issue with the hpascli utlity that may be buggy on G8 server along with the Health Monitior. The hpasmcli utility is not starting and although a restart on hp-health is successful, redoing the status shows it is stopped. The iLO interface is running sucessfully but unsure the correlation from the log file reference to the iLO.

• hp-health-8.7.0.22-11
• ProLiant DL360p Gen8
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.10 (Tikanga)

What distro? What is the output of 'lsmod | grep hp'?

[Garrett_ComSysA]

Output is the following:

[root@basxxxx rpm]# lsmod | grep hp
shpchp 70893 0
hpilo 44497 0

Also, I checked /var/logs/messages log file and not sure if this is related, but it contains the following string numerous times over a log time span:

Jul 7 15:49:34 basxxxx hpasmxld[6806]: OsKcsExecCmd: IPMI NetFN 0x36 CMD: 0x2 has timed out!
Jul 7 15:49:34 basxxxx hpasmxld[6806]: OsKcsExecCmd: hpasmxld application in full reset. Command aborted
