HP Systems Insight Manager - Manual (Page 555)

Solution 2: If the disk image has already been deployed, perform the following to remove the image from
each target system. The following information is divided by network operating systems.
▲ In NetWare:
The Globally Unique Identifier information is stored in a 16-byte file on the sys:\system subdirectory of
the NetWare server. This file is created and populated with the Globally Unique Identifier when HP SIM
performs an SNMP SET command to the NetWare server.
To remove the permanence of the Globally Unique Identifier, delete the file \system\cpqbssa.cfg in
the NetWare SYS volume.
After the file is deleted, restart the Insight Management Agent and a new Globally Unique Identifier is
assigned by HP SIM when the system is discovered.
▲ In Windows NT:
The Management Agents create the Globally Unique Identifier information in an entry in the Windows NT
registry.
To remove permanence of the Globally Unique Identifier, remove the entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Compaq Insight Agent\hostGUID
After the entry is removed, restart the Insight Management Agent services. A new Globally Unique Identifier
is automatically generated.
▲ In UnixWare:
The Globally Unique Identifier information is stored in a file that is created and populated with the Globally
Unique Identifier when HP SIM performs an SNMP SET command to the UnixWare server.
To remove the permanence of the Globally Unique Identifier, delete the following file from the UnixWare
system.
/var/spool/Compaq/foundation/registry/cpqhoguid.dat
After this file has been deleted, restart the Management Agents. A new Globally Unique Identifier is assigned
by HP SIM when the system is discovered.
On a Windows XP SP2 machine, I receive an error message and the installation does not complete.

On an HP-UX system, the mxinitconfig -a command fails at step 8, and the following error appears in
the /var/opt/mx/logs/initconfig.logfile: ...8. Database Configuration Connecting
to database...- Failed HP Systems Insight Manager shutting down: Lost connection
to database. org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Connection refused.Check that
the host name and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP
connections. for db loaded from database.props
Solution: Try the following solutions:
•
Ensure that the semmni and semmns kernel parameters are set to the minimum values (1024 for
semmni
and 2048 for semmns.)
•
The subdirectory /var/opt/iexpress/postgresql exists because the PostgreSQL product is not
installed or was installed and uninstalled incorrectly. Uninstall PostgreSQL if it is installed, delete the
/var/opt/iexpress/postgresql
directory, and then reinstall PostgreSQL.
After installing HP SIM, a CMS that is setup on a desktop is shown as a server.
Solution: Identification identifies a system as a server if SMH is found on the system. Re-identify the CMS
with WBEM credentials. The system will be identified as Desktop with the correct system information.
