Environment\logs\gwlminitconfig.log.0:
SEVERE [17] Error performing database operation: CREATE DATABASE failed.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.n\MSSQL\Data\
where n is some number.

as well as the following entry in gwlminitconfig.log.0:
SEVERE [32] Error performing database operation:
Cannot open database "gwlm" requested by the login. The login
failed.
use the following commands to remove the database and reinitialize it:
NOTE: These commands delete all configuration and historical data for all VSE
components.
# vseinticonfig --unconfig --clobber
# vseinitconfig --initconfig
• If the time zone is not set properly for the CMS and managed nodes (including issues related
to the change in the start/end of daylight savings time in the US), VSE Management Software
may collect, analyze, or display data incorrectly. Please see http://www.hp.com/go/dst for
information and pointers to relevant daylight savings time changes needed for your operating
environment.
On Windows Server 2003 this would include the need to install the update described by
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942763.
• When installing VSE from the Insight Control Management (ICM) DVD onto a Windows
CMS, the VSE installer may detect that HP SIM has not yet started. This causes the VSE
installation to fail partially or completely. It is also possible that the VSE installer cannot
clean up the partial installation. You must re-run the ICM integrated installer and start the
VSE installation again. If the integrated installer claims that VSE is already installed, you
must first uninstall VSE and then re-run the ICM integrated installer.
