How to login HP SIM and VSE?

[kingsan168]

Hi,

I finished to install HP SIM and VSE on HP-UX v11.31. How can login to SIM through web browser? I typed http://hostname:280/ but no any response. Are there need to start or stop any service in host server?

Below is the installation detail:

The URL should get you to the SIM login screen.

- First I would check you are not using a proxy for local website addresses in your browser.
- Can you ping the server by the you used in the URL from your desktop system?

- Can you also not get to the Systems Management Homepage on that server as address http://:2301

- Actually http://:280 is just a redirection to https://:50000 so try that as well

- On the SIM server what is the output of "mxstatus -l"

The server is connected to intranet through the proxy server.

I can't found the command #./mxstatus -l. Can you tell me it located at which directory?

Need any services to start to use HP SIM on HP-UX?(For instance: Apache or tomcat) If yes, typed what command to start up the service?

[Duncan Edmonstone]

/opt/mx/bin/mxstatus

If the mxiniticonfig and vseinitconfig commands both ran thru OK, you shouldn't have to do anything else.

HTH

Duncan

[kingsan168]

I cannot find this command under /opt/mx/bin/mxstatus

Can any command to verify that HP SIM is running?

[Duncan Edmonstone]

>> I cannot find this command under /opt/mx/bin/mxstatus


I fail to see how you can have the "mxinitconfig" command on your system (as you clearly have from the above output), and not have "mxstatus" - they are part of the same fileset in SIM - you are trying to run these commands on the right system aren't you? (i.e. on the server you have installed SIM on?)

[Duncan Edmonstone]

>> I cannot find this command under /opt/mx/bin/mxstatus


oops, just read that again... /opt/mx/bin/mxstatus isn't a directory, it's the full path to the command... so does:

/opt/mx/bin/mxstatus -l

not return anything?

HTH

Duncan

[kingsan168]

I have already installed these command as below.

1) /opt/mx/bin/mxinitconfig -a
2) /opt/vse/bin/vseinitconfig -a

If I restart the server, is it need to type these command again or start automatically?

[kingsan168]

I typed the command but not return anything.

# /opt/mx/bin/mxstatus -l
sh: /opt/mx/bin/mxstatus: not found.

[Duncan Edmonstone]

Something is very wrong here - you shouldn't have mxinitconfig without mxstatus... if you run:

swlist -l fileset -a state HPSIM-HP-UX

what does it show?

HTH

Duncan

[kingsan168]

It will be showed as follow:

hmmm ok... what about output of:

swlist HPSIM-HP-UX

and

swlist -l file HPSIM-HP-UX.SysMgmtServer.MX-CORE-ARCH

Is it need to start up the apache service so that it can be launch HPSIM or HPSMH? I can't still see anything when I type http://:2301/

[Duncan Edmonstone]

If you can't hit the systems management homepage either, taht suggests a problem with your browser configuration rather than SIM or SMH.

But anyway, just to clear a few things up... you seem to have a pretty old version of SIM installed there (5.2, the latest is 6.2), which didn't have mxstatus but never mind.

No there is no "apache" or anything else to start for SIM - mxtstart/mxstop are all you need to start/stop SIM.

A couple more things to check:

- Check the installation is OK using:

mxinitconfig -l

- Check that SIM is listening on port 280:

netstat -anf inet | grep 280

If that shows anything like this:

tcp 0 0 *.280 *.* LISTEN

Then SIM is definately listening on port 280, and the problem is with your browser or somewhere in-between.
