HP SIM Not starting

[Jayaprakash Subramanian]

Hello All,

I have a set of machines on the network and there is a CMS to manage those systems. The problem here is when the CMS is rebooted, the HP SIM didn't come up and throws the following error.

INIT: Command is respawning too rapidly.
Will try again in 5 minutes.
Check for possible errors.
id:cms1 "/opt/mx/lbin/mxdtf"

The mxdtf log says that -

# tail -f /var/opt/mx/logs/mxdtf.0.log
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.hp.mx.dtf.MxDTFImpl.main(MxDTFImpl.java:202)
ERROR: mxdtf received an exception from Java Virtual Machine.

------------------------------------------

I have checked the mxdomainmgr log and this says -

------------------------------------------

It seems that the problem is with Java and the mxdtf process is killed if started manually.

here the output of ps for mx -

If i run the "/opt/java1.5/bin/IA64N/java -Djava.library.path=/opt/mx/lib -Xmx512m -jar /opt/amgr/lib/amgrserver.jar" separately, then it shows the following error -

------------------------------------------
I'm not able to find the root cause of this issue. If anyond find out the cause, then it will be more helpful. I have attached the logs for the reference.

Thanks in Advance,
