Server health Status

[James D'Amico]

hey all --

Here is my issue. On many servers I am monitoring, The server health status is considered MAJOR. However when I go to the system management homepage everything is green and fine. How do you change the Health Status to be green??

Have you cleared or deleted the history of the health status.
Even if you fix something... a previous alert still shows unless you clear or delete it.

when I clear all of the events it clears the status for "Aggregate Even Status" colum. not the Server health colum. is there a separate area to go to to clear the sserver health status?

AFAIK it should change by itself. you could try disabling/enabling monitoring for one of the systems affected to see if it rechecks the health status or even delete and rediscover but you should'nt have to !

anyway good luck hope this helps

Thanks guys. It wasn't clearing because the data sourse wasn't pointed to snmp. Once I changed it to snmp, i had to disable ilo ports cause it was detecting loop back failed. Once I disabled the ilo ports and snmp was configured as the data sourse...everything is now displayed properly.

An alternate to disabling the ILO port is to remove the Remote Insight Agent. From Control panel - HP Management Agents GUI.

Consider marking all the entries under Integrated Management Logs as repaired.
