Auto refresh?

[Craig Bradshaw]

Is there a way to get the SIM console to auto refresh? Ideally I'd like to set the status overview as the SIM Home Page and have it refresh periodically so I can see new events without manual intervention.

If you are viewing a table, it will automatically update (this is the reason tables are live Java applets) when something changes. Don't forget that you have to wait for a status poll to complete and then a little lag time to propagate through the database.

That is true for the event lists, but is it possible for the Status Overview screen. It doesn't refresh unless done manually.

I have the same problem using SIM 4.1 on a windows XP machine (the SIM server).

The events list refreshes but not the all systems view.

When I use the web console on my own PC (same OS) it seems to work OK, although changing between forground and background windows as I work may possibly be refreshing it.

This "feature", or lack of it, is documented in http://www.hp.com/wwsolutions/misc/downloads/management/hpsim/sys-book.pdf , page 51.

I guess I have to deal...
