1. On the CMS, open the Control Panel, and select Network Connections→Local Area
Connection Settings→Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)→Properties→Advanced.
2. Select the DNS tab.
3. Be sure that DNS suffix for this connection contains the full DNS suffix for the system.
4. Be sure both the Register this connection's address in DNS and the Use this
connection's DNS suffix in DNS registration checkboxes are selected.
• The System name for the CMS is not configured properly. HP recommends the following
workaround:
1. On the CMS, open the Control Panel and select System.
2. Click Network Identification.
3. Click Properties or Change next to the Rename this computer or Join a domain
field.
4. In the dialog box, click More.
5. Be sure the primary DNS suffix is set correctly. If not, set it, and click OK until all dialog
boxes are closed.
• The proxy settings on the client browser is configured to proxy local systems. HP recommends
the following workaround:
1. In Internet Explorer, select Tools→Internet Options→Connections→LAN Settings
and then select Use a proxy server for your LAN.
2. Click Advanced.
3. Add the DNS suffix for the CMS to the Exceptions list.
4. Click OK until all dialog boxes are closed.
• The company DNS servers could be having problems. HP recommends that you contact your
company's network support group.
Complex
You cannot delete a complex and all associated systems when you first select either the system or
complex alone and then try to delete.
Solution: You must select all associated systems from the list for the deletion to work correctly.
Configure or Repair Agents
Configure or Repair Agents cannot be used to install the WBEM Providers to Integrity Windows
systems.
You must manually install the WBEM provider by copying cp010621.exe (can be found in the
smartcomponents directory under the HP SIM install) to the target system and then running it.
-------------------------------------------------------------
HP-UX 11.31 does not ship with smbclient, therefore, any Configure or Repair Agents task from
an HP-UX 11.31 CMS to a Windows target fails until smbclient is installed on the CMS.
Solution: A back up smbclient is located under /opt/mx/bin/smbclient. Copy this to the
opt/samba/bin/smbclient folder to execute the Configure or Repair Agents task.
-------------------------------------------------------------
How do I push an SSH key using mxagentconfig to a target system running Windows Vista?
Solution: HP recommends turning off the Windows Vista User Account Control.
How do I push an SSH key through Configure or Repair Agents on Windows 2008?
Solution: HP recommends disabling User Account Control on Windows 2008 systems.
NOTE: Configure or Repair Agents is not supported on Windows Vista.
-------------------------------------------------------------
I received a connection failed error in Configure or Repair Agents on Windows XP.
