how to install agents and update old agents

[_bj]

we have installed Sim 5.0 and we liked to know how we push the installation of the agents to new servers, and uppdating the old ones on our Cim 7.0 hosts

Setup the VCRM on your network (if you don't have one) and then using the "Initial ProLiant Support Pack" install task in HPSIM, you can install the agents on the target hosts.

Hi bj,

If you are using the HP SIM 5.0 SP4, then you would get a HTTP 400 error message at login to the SIM server due to the following reason:
The SP4 patch overwrites the file "\jboss\server\hpsim\conf\jboss-service.xml"


Edit line 450 of the file to show the proper install location of SIM.
If they are installed at "C:\mySIM", then the line should look like this: file:/C:\mySIM\hpwebadmin\webapps: file:///C:\mySIM\hpwebadmin\webapps

If SIM is not installed at "C:\program files\hp\systems insight manager", they won't be able to log in.

Run "mxinitconfig -a" from a CMD prompt. This will also resolve the problem. This command updates the jboss-service.xml file to set the path.


The problem only exists for the SP4 patch (not full kit) and ONLY for SP3 to SP4 upgrades. If an earlier 5.x is installed, mxinitconfig will be run and the jboss-service.xml file will be correct.

Hope this answers!!!!!
