README - HP Systems Insight Manager 5.3 with Update 1

HP SIM running on a Linux system might not receive HTTP Events from the HP Version Control Agent performing

an Install Software and Firmware task. Therefore, the task status remains at 0% for an extended period and

shows In Progress on the Task Results page.

Set up the Hosts file on the target system running the VCA to include the name and IP address of the Linux

CMS system. Edit the windows dir\System32\Drivers\Etc\hosts file by adding the following

lines:

HP SIM system name

HP SIM system IP address

. For example:

License Manager

The License Manager Update Credentials option might not work correctly in the License Manager UI. Microsoft

Internet Explorer has a maximum URL length of 2,083 characters and has a maximum path length of 2,048

characters. This limit applies to both POST and GET request URLs. Therefore, the maximum number of systems

that should be selected will depend on the length of the individual names. Mozilla Firefox does not have

this limitation.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Collecting v0 keys from iLO targets is

not

supported.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The HP SIM license manager can be used to assign licenses to managed systems. Using this function to

assign a ProLiant iLO Advanced license to an iLO system does not work. The pop-up window implementing

the operation waits indefinitely with a message Connecting, please wait ....

-------------------------------------------------------------

When a subscription license for a particular product has expired, license manager's opening table will still

show that product has no system limit. The true disposition of licenses for the corresponding product can be

determined by opening Manage Licenses. If an expected subscription license is not listed, it has expired

and is no longer available.

Locale

Certain parts of CLI output might contain system-generated text that always appears in the language indicated

by the default CMS locale, not the locale of the user's CLI terminal. This condition can occur following two

problems:

• This text might provide a localized property key of the TDef file, which is not allowed for TDef input.

• This text might be identified by one or more question mark (?) character strings appearing in the CLI

output.

The CMS locale is determined by the globalsettings.props file. To change the CMS locale and possibly allow

the CLI to generate proper locale text, edit the globalsettings.props file by running the following command:

To set CMS Locale to Japanese:

mxglobalsettings –s –f CMSLocale=ja_JP

To set CMS Locale to English:

mxglobalsettings –s –f CMSLocale=en_US

After you run this command, restart HP SIM.
