"Unmanaged" means that HP SIM cannot find a management protocol (e.g. SNMP) that it can use to manage the device.

Hi,

I compared another machine that is not unmanaged, but the configuration is the same of which is unmanaged. Where can I check more ?
Thanks in advance

Hello

1. Check the propertis of SNMP service, trap destination, community name. Also check security tab. If you have enabled option Accept SNMP packets from these hosts add 127.0.0.1 and applay, restart SNMP servis, check for HP Insight web agent is started .
After this run Identification task.

Re: Discover new machine on HPSIM

We have the same problem. In our SNMP settings we use "Accept SNMP packets from these hosts". Listed is 127.0.0.1, servername and name of HP SIM machine. Some servers work but at the ones that do not work i've discovered that if I change the SNMP setting to "Accept any SNMP packets from any host" and rediscover, it works. Why is that???
