Okay, thanks. I have successfully changed over a few G9's to use AMS/iLO SNMP. I had to do "configure -> configure or repair agents" then pick the AMS option at the top. I also had to set up the credentials for the iLO. I'd like to do this globally but that didn't work for me. After setting up and running my repair agents task, it failed with bad creds. So I enterd the credentials on that specific system's iLO settings. Then it worked. Not a big deal at the moment...that's the least of my problems.
Hey - on the G9 server's iLO management screen, next to the SNMP, there's an Alertmail tab. See screenshot. I don't think I need to do this - because HP SIM is sending the alert e-mail when it gets an snmp trap. If I set up email on iLO, I'd probably get double the alerts...I assume if you don't have HP SIM, you'd then use that to send your alerts. Does that sound right?
