2 Important notes Central Management Server Use careful planning if you want to deploy new drivers, firmware agents, or other software to the local CMS because you might receive unexpected results, such as a mandatory reboot of the CMS. Configure or Repair Agents Se1170 is not discovered as an HP Proliant server. Therefore, deployment of agents is not supported through Configure or Repair Agents for Systems Insight Manager 6.1.
Hyper-V manager Configuring two VMs with the same name in Hyper-V manager is not supported in Systems Insight Manager 6.2. Systems Insight Manager uses the _ as the name of the VM when the host is identified, thus, even though the UUID of the VM is different, Systems Insight Manager is not able to handle this situation. PCI card information PCI card information is inaccurate on new hardware platforms that support HP-UX (for example, SuperDome 2).
------------------------------------------------------------When configuring a Configure or Repair Agents task, limit the number of target servers to 100 or less so that the internally created Windows command will not exceed the maximum Windows command line length.
