Andrew,
I would totally agree with you but it isn't lol.
If I pull the power cable on the psu, the health status does eventually change (I'm guessing at the next polling intrerval) and If I drill down it tells me which psu is showing the fault, but at no point do I get an event, so no email either.
As I said earlier, when I reboot now, I do get some events and emails , but only if I do something at that level, at the component level I don't get anything. And yes on the communications page if I mouse over the green checkbox on events it says it's able to receive events.
I have to say, I know I'm a newbie to SIM , but it has to be one of the most complicated systems I've seen just to report system events. lol. All this just to try and monitor my couple of vm boxes so I don't have to physically look at them every day for some flashing orange lights.
I'm open to suggestions if you can think of anything.
Thanks,
Dave
