Hi,

You'll need to install the HP Management Agents for ESX server which are available here:

http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/26407.html

Once that's installed you should be able to browse onto the System Management Homepage with:

https://:2381

and see the status of your hardware.

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Rob

I installed it already but it still doesn't show any disk configuration maybe i should install some agents?

Hi,

I've not tried on a DL380 G5, but I've just loaded the management agents mentioned previously on an ML350 G4 and I can see the state of the storage as you'd expect.

Do you see anything under Home -> Storage ??

Cheers,

Rob

Under home -> storage I have one option file system space used and if i click on it I have no volumes inside.

Thank you.

Hello,

I installed it again and now it works good, but i have another question about sending alerts to an Email address if it's possible.

Thank you.

I finally did it, I installed system management on the ESX server and insight management on on virtual server and the i configure fro the insight management to send Email alerts.
