Anyone successfully install Insight Manager Server on Linux

For the past week I have been struggling to get Insight Manager server running on a Linux Server. Running Red Hat RS 2.1 on a Proliant DL380G3. I have followed step-by-step instructions and have built and rebuilt the server probably a half dozen times now. Everything seems to build OK, I can get to the management web pages OK, but the problem is that no data is ever loaded. I perform the discover process (both manually and automatically) and it appears as if the process is working, but the web pages show no managed systems. HP support suggested that I try a different version of postgresql, but the version that's being loaded by the RPMs that come with the package. Looking at the forum pages, I see lots of questions and responses about Windows installs, which leads me to believe that the successful installed base of Linux is minimal (or non-existant). So, has anyone successfully built the current distribution of the product?

Re: Anyone successfully install Insight Manager Server on Linux

Well, wouldn't you know that a few minutes after I posted this I got it working? Actually it looks like it was working all along. The problem was when I set up the accounts it wasn't enough to select the radial button to give accounts full rights - I also need to select the administrator "template" when setting up the web account. Once I did that, the account could see all of the managed systems!
