EVA and HPSIM in the same server.

[Eduardo Ferreira Rego]

Hi Friends,

I installed the EVA Command View and HPSIM in the same server and now the HPSIM cannot monitor the EVA. What shoud i do ?

[Rob Buxton]

Did you follow the guide that covers running HP SIM and CV on the same Server?

There are some things you need to do to ensure they can run together.

Have you monitored an EVA with HPSIM before?

I follow the Install Guide ("Running HP Command View EVA and HP Systems Insight Manager on the same server"), but still not worked. any tips ???

First thing I'd try and run is wbemdisco.
It should be in the HPSIM Install directory.

You need to ensure the credentials you use are in the local Storage Admins group. These are the same credentials that should either be in the global wbem credentials or in the system specific wbem credentials.

When i run the wbemdisco.cmd it present the following error:


C:\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight Manager>WbemDisco.cmd

I think you may need to log a call with HP on that one.
I've not moved to CV9 and I'd be a bit concerned by that CV version reported with the Dev44 bit.
Also try and verify the namespace being used. Not at work so can't verify ours. It used to be root\pg_interop but that may have changed.

Call HP. Last fall we spent about 3 weeks on and off getting this to work. We re-installed HP SIM 3 times and did a lot of re-discovering. We were lucky that the SAN was new and we were not using it yet.

Thanks friends,

I will call HP to resolve my problem.

Thanks a lot.
