Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 cannot be installed in VM guest on ESXi 4.1
host on BL465c G7
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 cannot be installed in a VM guest on an ESXi 4.1 host on server
blade BL465c G7.
To resolve this issue, install RHEL 5.5 on the host system, install a RHEL 5.4 guest and then upgrade
the guest to RHEL 5.5, ensuring that kernel-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 or higher is used.

Managing Microsoft Windows servers without OpenSSH installed
Even though the product documentation states OpenSSH is required, HP Insight Dynamics supports
Microsoft Windows environments not running OpenSSH. However, for Microsoft Windows systems
without OpenSSH, there are several limitations with agent installation and troubleshooting.
For details on using HP Insight Dynamics with Microsoft Windows systems not running OpenSSH,
see the HP Insight Dynamics 6.0 software without OpenSSH on HP ProLiant and Integrity Servers

Patch required for proper management of Microsoft Windows Server 2008
with Hyper-V systems
A patch from Microsoft is required for managing Microsoft Windows Server 2008 with Hyper-V
systems. Patches are installed on the Hyper-V hosts, and after you do so, you must install or update
Hyper-V Integration Services from the updated host to each VM guest. Do this as a precaution
because not all patches affect Integration Services on the guests.
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2 with Hyper-V requires you to install the following patch that
fixes the hang in host servers with many simultaneous virtual machine operations. The patch is
located at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/980081.
See the Managing Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V with HP Insight Software technology
brief for more information about other patches that might be required for later editions of Microsoft
Windows Server 2008 (R2):

Managing a Microsoft Hyper-V (or any MSCS) cluster when an alias is
assigned by DHCP
In Windows Server 2008 Failover Clusters, if the cluster alias is assigned using DHCP, the cluster
alias PTR (reverse lookup) record in DNS will be incorrect, and will cause the cluster to be incorrectly
discovered in Systems Insight Manager.
To correct this problem, delete the cluster objects from Systems Insight Manager, take the steps in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969049 to modify the
cluster DNS behavior, and then rediscover the cluster in Systems Insight Manager.
