HP SIM 7.3 running on Linux RedHat varient (Oracle Enterprise Linux) with Oracle 11g DB on same server as SIM application. The system has been running for a few months without any systems discovered. I finally got around to it and put a bunch of systems in on Sunday and Monday of last week (8 - 9 days ago). Everything was fine, until I modified the Hardware Status Polling for Servers job from the default.
Factory default:
5 minute discovery timeout, 1 retry, run every 5 minutes.
I modified to:
5 minute discovery timeout, 2 retries, run every 20 minutes.
I did this around 9:00am today and around 4:00pm got flooded with Association Removed messages. But, they are not all from our blade chassis / OA systems. We have stand-alone rack-mount DL380 G6/G7/G8 systems (no shared storage or anything) in remote facilities that also generated these messages.
This is frustrating that this has been a problem for over a year!!
