Hello,
I am new with HP SIM and have been fighting with it but have been slowly making progress. Currently trying to get one of our servers fully setup so that we can then use that setup as a basis to setup the others. I have been able to get SNMP set up and working but my problem now arises with WBEM. During discovery I get "Critical: HP SIM cannot communicate with these systems using the WBEM protocol."
The WBEM ports 5988/5989 (WBEM Service) and 50004 (WBEM Event Receiver) are open as needed. The Pegasus WMI mapper is properly installed on the CMS to my understanding. The credentials that are being used have Admin access. WBEM is installed on the target server and is up to date.
Both the CMS and the server are HP ProLiant DL360p G8 servers running Windows Server 2012. The CMS is running a fresh install of SIM 7.3 with the hotfix applied.
I am not sure what else to try so any help would be appreciated.
Here is the full discovery result:
********* Significant issues and overall target discovery/identification
status:
Normal: The system has valid hardware data (model, serial number, and
unique identifier) and has been identified properly for SIM to
manage.
Critical: HP SIM cannot communicate with these systems using the WBEM
protocol.
********* Additional results (listed for information only):
* Starting identification process...
* Checking for known running web servers...
* Checking for SNMP protocol support on system...
Normal: The system responded to an SNMP request; it supports SNMP Protocol
and has a valid read community string.
* Checking for SNMPv3 protocol support on system...
Minor: Global SNMPv3 Identification is disabled.
* Running HP ProLiant management agent identification...
Normal: Identification can get the system information from the ProLiant
SNMP Foundation agents for servers.
* Running SNMP base cluster identification using common cluster
MIB...
Normal: This system does not have the common cluster MIBs support.
* Checking for WBEM protocol support on system...
Minor: This system does not have any SMI-S CIMOMs installed. No storage
systems will be found on this system.
Minor: The Central Management System (CMS) cannot communicate with the
CIMOM locally installed on the managed system using the WBEM
protocol, Identification will try to identify Windows systems using
the WMI Mapper as proxy; for Linux and HP-UX systems, check
credentials by going to Options->Security->Credentials->System
Credentials. For Linux systems also check if the HP WBEM provider
is installed.
* Running WBEM rules based identification...
Minor: Identification cannot get computer system hardware data from the
WBEM / WMI providers.
* Running Virtual Machine (VM) Host (non HP Integrity VM Host)
Identification...
Normal: The system is not a VM Host (non HP Integrity VM Host), or WBEM
credentials may not be specified so skipping VM Identification.
* Running Storage identification...
* Did not detect the WBEM protocol support on this system. SMI
storage identification will be skipped.
* Storage identification completed.
* Running HP NetServer identification...
Normal: System supports the NetServer SNMP agent, adding system type.
* Running HP-UX SNMP identification...
Normal: System does not have the HP-UX SNMP agents installed.
* Running OA Identifier which will discover systems in an enclosure
if the automatic enclosure discovery option for OA is enabled...
Normal: A non-embedded operating system is detected so skipping the OA
identification.
* Running XMLReply Identifier which will discover systems in a
rack/enclosure if the automatic discovery option for the container
node is enabled...
Normal: A non-embedded operating system is detected so skipping the
Management processor identification.
* Running iLO Identifier which will discover the server if the
automatic server discovery option for iLO is enabled...
Normal: A non-embedded operating system is detected so skipping the ILO
identification.
* Running p-Class Identifier...
Normal: The system is not a p-Class so skipping p-Class identification.
* Running IPMI protocol identification...
Normal: Skipping IPMI discovery in favor of WBEM/SNMP discovery.
* Running SSH Protocol identification...
Minor: The system(s) do not have Secure Shell (SSH) installed or it is not
running on the managed system(s).
* Running SSH Identification...
Normal: SSH Protocol is not enabled so skipping SSH Identification.
* Running WS-Man identification...
Major: WS-Management(WS-Man) is globally disabled so skipping WS-Man
identification.
* Running Monarch OA Identification...
Normal: The system is not a monarch OA so skipping monarch OA
identification.
* Checking for System Management Homepage and other HP web agents...
Normal: System Management Homepage (SMH) is installed or is responding on
the system(s).
* Running HP Serviceguard Identification...
Normal: The system is not part of HP Serviceguard cluster.
* Running SNMP System Type manager ...
Normal: No matching SNMP System Type Manager rule for sysObjID was found.
* Running SNMP subtypes identification...
* No additional subtype(s) found from SNMP.
* Resolving DNS names...
Normal: The fully qualified domain name was successfully resolved for the
system.
* Checking if the Node is a Virtual Center...
Normal: Node is not a Virtual Center Node
* Running Virtual Machine Management (VMM) Plug-in Identification...
* Building system relationships...
Normal: The trust between the CMS and the managed system is established.
* Running system Manage Communication diagnosis...
* System identification finished on system.
