HP Systems Insight Manager 7.2 User Guide

2. Run mxtool -mf <tool XML> -x force' where <tool XML> for each TDef is as follows:
iux_tools.xml
swm-msa-tools.xml
swm-ssa-tools-up.xml
swm-ssa-tools.xml
hpux\iux_tools.xml

HP MIBs
The LinkUp and LinkDown traps in IF-MIB.mib are redundant traps; these are also present in
rfc1215.mib. As per the current framework, the redundant traps are not allowed in HP SIM
Traps with same name.
Change the loading of MIBs. The IF-MIB.mib is loaded first and then the RFC1215.mib. The
IF-MIB.mib will be listed in mibcore.list and RFC1215 in preload.list. By doing this
the LinkUp and linkDown traps from IF-MIB.mib will only be registered with HP SIM. The RFC1215
file will only show four traps Cold Start, Warm Start, Authentication Failure, egp....
-------------------------------------------------------------
Do not rename, move, or delete MIB files from the MIBs directory after they are registered.
Solution: For a MIB file to be listed as registered, the MIB file must reside in the MIBs directory.
Onboard Administrator
When an Onboard Administrator system is deleted, health status of the bare metal server systems
remain stale. ProLiant OA must be rediscovered to obtain updated health status of the bare metal
server systems.
OpenSSH
OpenSSH installation fails on a Windows XP SP3 system.
Solution: Verify that the Network access: Sharing and security model for local accounts under Local
Policies→Security Options is set to Classic - local users are authenticate as themselves.
Performance
When running HP SIM in an environment that contains a large number of ProLiant systems running
the WMI-based Insight Agents, the completed job output in Tasks & Logs→View Task Results might
exceed several thousand files.
Solution: This can result in HP SIM consuming large amounts of memory, task page interface
slowdown, or out of memory errors.
If this behavior is noted, the following workaround can be implemented to alleviate the consumption
of memory and disk space. The workaround adjusts the retention values for completed tasks and
can be altered as desired to reduce resource consumption.
NOTE: This fix only applies to HP SIM instances which are managing a large number of servers
(maximum 5000) using WMI.
Add the following script to the MX.PROPERTIES file located in the Microsoft Windows directory
\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight Manager\config or in the Linux and HP-UX
directory /etc/opt/mx/config:
MX_JOB_MAX_COMPLETED_JOBS_PER_TASK=3
Recommended value is 3 for greater than 1500 systems
MX_JOB_MAX_COMPLETED_JOB_AGE=7
Recommended value is 7 for greater than 1500 systems
