We have several ESX clusters that show up in our Virtualization Summary, however there's some confusion since at the top level, they just show the hostname. Unfortunately, several of these are showing up as localhost.localdomain or some other not very descriptive description (see what I did there?). Is there any way of…
Hi: I have a situation where I have a physical machine and also a copy of the athat machine on a HyperV server. My HyperV machines and their VMs are listing nicely. My physical machine is listing as though it is a guest on my HyperV server. How might I reset this to esnure that it reports correctly? i.e. You are a physcial…
Good Afternoon all, Storage Manager was doing quite well scanning our VM environment as well as our NetApp storage, until recently. Something happened (not sure what) and now I can't get it to scan the VM environment (storage is still ok). I make have made a mistake when I removed all of my VM devices and readded them…
We are running ESXi 5.1.0 which is managed by a VCenter. The ESXi host is a Dell R620. We installed the OpenManage VIB on the host and configured according to Dell/VMware docs. When we brought the node into Orion using SNMP polling, it automatically chose to poll directly. I see the hardware information on the Node Details…
We recently stood up a new Orion server after a failure of our last one and have been having some weird issues since then. Our latest issue is recieving an error message when attempting to add a new esx host. So far this only happens when i select poll for vmware and try to add credentials. Here are screenshots of my 2…
We are having trouble with SAM seeing the performance monitors on virtual machines. Also when logged into our Orion server via RDP we can't view a remote VMware machine from the MS Performance Monitor tool. However we can browse other VMware guests (about 10%) from the Orion server. TheOrion server is a physical server.…
Hello, I am having a strangle situation here. I had an alert on one node this night about the CPU which was at 100%. When I check the graph , I see this : But when I connect the machine , the CPU is low ... : That's quite strange. I am using NPM 10.4.2, SAM 5.5. The monitored (virtual) machine is Rhel 6 (64bits) with…
Using Dameware MRC 9, I find myself constantly pressing CTRL+ALT+INS at CTRL+ALT+DEL screens out of habit from using VMWare (both workstation and vSphere client). CTRL+ALT+INS is the industry standard key combination to press CTRL+ALT+DEL to a virtual machine. It would only make sense that Dameware has this feature added…
Does SAM v5.5 integrate with Storage Manager through the SAM interface? How about the vSphere virtualization manager? If so, how do i go about viewing these inside the SAM webpage? Thanks in advance.
We are dipping into moving monitoring of our virtual environment from VCOP's and our server monitoring from Compuware Server Monitoring to SAM. Our Cloud team is interested in Virtualization Manager, but I need to be able to concisely explain to our management team the advantages of Virtualization Manger over what we would…
