SIM 4.2 and ILO
Also the system information is not being populated when a server is dicovered. Again all snmp settings are identical. Thanks for any help.

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
On those servers where you are seeing the ? in the MP column... go to one of them and check under control panel - HP Management Agents applet and check to see if your Remote Insight Information agent is on the Active list. If not ...activate the agent - you will then be prompted to restart the agents.
Then go back to SIM and do a Daily Device discovery...
As far as the second issue:
What do you show under the Autodiscovery - Discovery Filters area for the default SNMP community strings? Do these default fields match up with the strings on the new servers being discovered?

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
First, the iLO itself has to be a discovered device on its own. Check the 'All management processors' list to see if it shows up. The association then happens by retrieving information from the iLO.
During initial or daily device identification, HP SIM asks each iLO some information about itself to which it responds with an XML document. You can view that information from an iLO by typing
http://[ILO-NAME-OR-IP-ADDRESS]/xmldata?item=all
to which you will get a response such as this:
The level of detail that is returned can be set under Administration-->SNMP/Insight Manager Settings. The basic data used for the association is the server's serial number, tagged by
Anything that causes a bad serial number to appear (such as after a motherboard replacement) will interfere with identification.

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
A quick test to determine if openSSH is setup correctly is to select the CMS, and then go to options --> command line tools --> windows --> netstat. If this fails then openSSH is not properly configured.

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
Something a simple as a rerun of the Autodiscovery on all relevant ip addresses may correct the situation if you want to hurry up the process.

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
I am having the same problem here. While I look at each individual server or ILO, they show linked up. But the MP column shows ?

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
Alternatively, you may call (800) HP-INVENT, then say "Insight Manager".
They will ask that you use the iLO firmware 1.64 and hp Systems Insight Manager to ensure that the hardware/software combination is supported.

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
I won't bother calling. I can't remember the last time they actually fixed something other than a failed HD. And even that's becoming difficult.

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
After about 10 minutes of mostly silence on the other end with the occasional question, I am back on hold...
I would think that if someone has called HP on this before, they would have a record of it.

Re: SIM 4.2 and ILO
I have a case number on this now, but I have several cases that have been open for months with no updates. So I guess that's the end of that.
That was an hour of my life I will never get back...
