Disk Thresholds

[Yvan Lefevre]

I'm currently testing HPSIM5 SP5 and would like to set disk thresholds.

I don't succeed and always get the famous "Could not set the disk threshold, the agent did not accept the request."

I've searched the forums but did not find a suitable solution.

I'm trying to set the thresholds on a DL380 G4 installed with Windows 2003 SP1, Smartstart 7.60A.

I've tried with a lot of different snmp settings (read only, read write, read create, accept packets from any host ...)

I can't even set thresholds locally via the System Management Homepage because the Java applet doesn't work (even if I install the latest jre-1_5_0_06-windows-i586-p.exe).

Hi Yvan Lefevre,

I have same issue on my server not able to get the java applet loaded in SMH and could not configure the thresholds.

Download FREE - Java Runtime Environment Version 5.0 Update 6

Visit the following site:

http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/java/

Select Sun Microsystems under Java Runtime Solution and proceed to install the JVM.

or

http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_ie.jsp

And install the SW. It will install ActiveX component first than JVM after that everything started to work fine.

The applet loaded fine in SMH and I am able to set the disk threshold.

Regards,
Raj.

Thanks for this tip.

Indeed, now the Java applet works, I can set thresholds from the server itself and I get the low disk space alerts in HPSIM!

I guess the package I did download from java.com is not the same as installing it from the website directly.

Anyway, in HPSIM, I still have the error message if I try to set up disk thresholds from the HPSIM Console.

Hi Yvan,

Try upgrading the JVM and check if that helps.

Download FREE - Java Runtime Environment Version 5.0 Update 6
