Re: Monitor VMware ESX 5 HP server thru HP SIM
Also note that if you have Insight Control licensed for your servers, you can install the Insight Control plugins to vCenter and monitor your hardware from VMWare's vCenter management console as well, which will probably give you an even better experience in regards to fine grained control of your virtual machines as well as hardware monitoring. There's no extra charge for these plugins, the right to use them is included with your Insight Control licenses for your servers.
Hope this helps!

Re: Monitor VMware ESX 5 HP server thru HP SIM
Hi LGentile,
Thank for the help.
I had try to create and subscribe the WBEM event, and it run completed. Below is the message
Create Subscription for:
server.XXX.Com
Indication subscription successfully created.
If i'm click into my client under SIM and check system status,->Health Status, it still show me PING only.
If i run the data report collection, it can show me the hardware spec but not hardware status.
You have mention to force a hardware poll, may i know which tab under SIM can do this?
