let's try to make things clear: On in a Gen 7 and lower you should alway use WBEM on Windows server, SNMP on Linux and WBEM for for ESX 5.5 and above. On a Gen8 or higher you should use the SNMP/AMS setup. Disable any other agent, SNMP, SNMP agents on the operating system. AMS only works right when all other agents and OS SNMP are disabled. If you set the ILO, be sure to set the following SNMP Read & Trap community and trap destination to the SIM server Set the send traps using the hostname instead of the ILO name. If you get datacollection erros it's probably with the Gen8 or higher using any other than the AMS/ILO setup. Datacollection is a job that collects information for the servers in SIM. It has nothing to do with monitoring functions. The two things SIm does is receive traps SNP or WBEM and datacollect status and hardware inventory. where do you want to focus on right now ? If monitoring is the main thing (i would imagine) ignore the datacollection timeouts for now, we can fix that as soon as the email function is working. If you look at the left and you look at the Event collections you should find the Collection used for emailing. So all events found in this collection should create an event. I made a selfmade collection for Minor, Major, Critical events. The screenshot you show shows a NIC problem on a server. Go to the servers SMH and see what is wrong. The most confusing thing HP has done is create SNMP, WBEM and ILO events and they don't always match. So stick with the protocols mentioned above a the top and only use one protocol at a time for each server type.
