HP Systems Insight Manager 6.3 User Guide

HP Insight Control virtual machine management
After you have selected the Install Linux PSP or ESX agents and Register VM host options in a
Configure or Repair Agents task for ESX 3.5 U4 or later, the VM-host registration task fails because
the system shows as Not Responding in Vcenter. Vcenter takes about five minutes for a system to
reach a Normal status and therefore fails when Systems Insight Manager tries to register the VM
host. Re-run the VM-host registration task at a later time when the server is in a Normal state in
Vcenter.
