I've been running ESX with HP Management Agents for 4 years over several versions of ESX. Early on the agents were flaky, there was little information, and they didn't always function as advertised. Now we rely on them for comprehensive hardware monitoring probably since early ESX 3.5 they have been relatively solid with better and better integration with ESX. I am transitioning from ESX to ESXi 4.1 installable and I am having he same difficulties finding information as I did 4 years ago. I did install the 'hp-esxi4.1uX-bundle-1.0.zip' and can do a very basic discovery of the Host but, it isn't useful in its current state. (1) Is there any documentation for configuring an ESXi 4.1 in HP Insight Manager?

(2) I assume I can still get traps that alert up to the Insight Manager Console. Is that true? (3) Does SMH still exist or is there some other means for our NOC to drill down to identify a hardware problem? Any help would be much appreciated. I would think since ESXi has existed for sometime now there would be plenty of documentation but, I'm not finding anything.

I am trying to get the HP Insight agents running on my ESX server. I have installed the file as below. Android Vnc Viewer Source Code Download. 1) Go to the HP website and search for HP Insight Manager Agents for VMware ESX Server 2) Download the Agents 3) Open WinSCP and upload the.tar file you just downloaded to the (for example) /home/ folder 4) Log into putty with your normal user account and issue the su command to become root 5) Issue the following command to unzip the contents: tar -zxvf hpmgmt-7.5.1a-vmware.tgz. This will create a new subdirectory home//hpmgmt/751 6) You must enable the firewall port for the `hpim' service (2381) for accessing the System Management Homepage. The `snmpd' service should be enabled in the firewall for the Insight Manager agents to communicate properly with the hp Systems Insight Manager.

These ports can be enabled by using the 'esxcfg-firewall' command in the service console, or by answering 'y' when prompted by the installation script. 7) To read the readme.txt, you can issue the following command on the command line: cat README.txt 8) After reading the README.txt and to begin the installation, issue the command./installvm741.sh install 9) Follow the wizard, when asked for the public string enter (if you use this string) public 2 times (it will not be visible), and be sure to have the HP SIM server's IP or FQDN. Always answer Y when asked to activate the port 2381 (HPMHP) & Snmpd deamon. 10) To check if the configuration has succeeded, log in to the HP System Homepage:2381/. You should see the servername on the right side. I can see the server on the right hand side.

For Windows 7/2008 R2 VDAs that will use Personal vDisk, or AppDisk, or any other layering technology, install Microsoft hotfix 2614892 A computer stops responding. The main thing you'll need is the HP offline bundle, which will provide a few more health agents than you have now, and will include disk and array status (ESXi does not provide this by default). HP System Insight Manager support also WMware Esxi managed systems as reported in the support matrix.

However when I go into the Insight manager console and try to rregister the ESX box as a virtual machine looks as if its running then comes up with There was a problem connecting to the HP Systems Insight Manager server.
