When the All Systems window sits idle for a few minutes and I launch a new browser window, the All Systems
window turns white and Internet Explorer hangs. I am forced to end the task. How can I avoid hanging up
in Internet Explorer?
Solution: For security reasons, always sign out of HP SIM before closing Internet Explorer. Signing out before
closing Internet Explorer resolves this issue.
When I use the command mxnode -r -f to delete systems, the container systems (for example, clusters,
enclosures, and racks) are not deleted.
Solution: Containers must be deleted individually.
How do I change a credential for a system that is currently using the global defaults?
Solution:
1. Run the mxnodesecurity command to change or add the credentials.
2. Run mxnode from the CLI to generate an XML file for a particular system and redirect the output to an
external file:
mxnode -lf nodename >somefilename.xml
where somefilename.xml is the name of the external file in which the output is directed.
The following is an example of a partial mxnode XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<node-list>
<node name="abc" guid="..." host-name="abc.mycompany.com">
<hw-attribute name="DeviceType">Workstation</hw-attribute>
<hw-attribute name="DeviceSubType">HP9000</hw-attribute>
<hw-attribute name="Model">9000/785</hw-attribute>
<hw-attribute name="ProcessorFamily">pa-risc</hw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="OSName">HPUX</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="OSVendor">HP</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="OSRevision">11.00</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="IPAddress">192.1.2.3</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="ProtocolSupport">SNMP:1.0</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="Description">HP-UX phoenix</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="SystemName">abc.mycompany.com</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="DefaultProtoSettings">true</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="DefaultAttributeSettings">true</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="DefaultSystemName">true</sw-attribute>
</node>
</node-list>
3. The last three sw-attribute elements represent the current default settings (true or false).
4. Edit the file and change all three values to false, and save the file.
5. Use the mxnode command to modify the same system, using the modified XML file as input:
mxnode -m -f somefilename.xml
The system should now use the new settings.

After accessing the System tab for a blade system and clicking Refresh from the browser, the timestamp in
the System Status panel does not match the time shown in the Rack View.
