unable to connect to the target

The error happens when I try to either push SSH or configure agents remotely on a p-class blade: “HP Systems Insight Manager was unable to connect to the target. Retry with administrator credentials for this target.”

I can’t really think of why I would get this but bad credentials. I verified that I am using the Administrator account and I even created another account (ServerAdmin) which is part of the Administrator group but I still get the same thing. I rechecked to make sure that I have a trust established with client and I do.

But I keep on having this error anyway. Any ideas?

Re: unable to connect to the target

Is this one particular server you are having a problem with or are there others?

What version of HPSIM, earlier versions of HPSIM needed to login to themselves to initiate some tasks, and the failure could be there.

Re: unable to connect to the target

This is happening on 1 particular client. The other ones seem to be ok.

I am using SIM 5.0 SP5. PSP 7.41.
