Clicking HP Insight power management launch link does not go to expected HP SIM
page
Possible cause: If the Insight power management plug-in for HP SIM is not installed and the Insight
power management launch link under Insight Control for vCenter is selected, HP SIM cannot launch
the Insight power management pages. For the HP Insight power management link to work correctly,
Insight Control for vCenter requires that both HP SIM and the HP Insight power management plug-in
are installed.
Action: Install and configure the Insight power management plug-in for HP SIM.
Cost Advantage field not showing values
Possible cause: The managed vCenter Server cluster is not a DPM-configured cluster or the power
cost value is not configured.
Action: Verify the cluster type and power cost setting.
•
Verify that the cluster is DRS-enabled. This feature applies only to DRS-enabled clusters with
DPM configured.
•
Verify that the power cost value is configured correctly. For more information, see “Setting
the power cost for a cluster” (page 32) .
Events not delivered by Insight Control for vCenter to vCenter Server
Possible cause: Insight Control for vCenter is not configured to deliver events to vCenter Server.
Action: Verify that your systems are configured to deliver events to vCenter Server.
•
Note which events are delivered from Onboard Administrator to vCenter Server as defined
in
“Viewing hardware alert notifications” (page 87) . If any of those events are not delivered
to vCenter Server by Insight Control for vCenter, verify that the managed node is an HP ProLiant
c-Class server blade and that the corresponding Onboard Administrator is accessible from
the default system browser on the system where Insight Control for vCenter is installed.
For all other events delivered by Insight Control for vCenter to vCenter Server, the HP SNMP
agents or HP CIM providers must be installed and configured.
•
Verify that the Onboard Administrator is configured to forward events to Insight Control for
vCenter.
1.
Access the Insight Control for vCenter Home Settings page.
2. Click the Configuration tab.
3. Verify that OA Settings Forward Events is set to Yes. If No is currently selected, select
Yes, and then click Save.
