Issues and suggested actions
• Uninstalling HP Insight Storage Module for vCenter does not remove all files.
The following directories and their contents remain after uninstalling HP Insight Storage Module
for vCenter:
◦ C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\HP Insight Control for
vCenter\Storage\JBoss\standalone\log
You can access this directory to retrieve log files.
◦ c:\Program Files (x86)\HP\HP Insight Control for vCenter\icvc
Part of the uninstallation process is to back up server module configuration data. You can
access this directory to retrieve this configuration information and backup data of the server
module.
• The network diagram display is incomplete.
When a VM is not accessible by the Hypervisor (such as if the VM is on a datastore which
has been detached from the host), the Insight Control for vCenter network diagram is
incomplete.
Suggested action: Reattach the datastore to the host to get a complete network diagram.
◦
◦ On a configuration with large number of VMs and datastores, it can take a long time for
Insight Control for vCenter to draw the network diagram. You might see a dialog box prompt
indicating that it is taking too long to run the script on the page be prompted to continue to
run the script or stop running it.
Suggested action: Click Yes to stop the script from running, which prevents the diagram from
completing, or click No and possibly wait a long time for the complete diagram to appear.
• Insight Control for vCenter fails to get host data from CIM providers in lockdown mode when
vCenter is configured with non-standard https ports.
Insight Control for vCenter attempts to get server authentication ticket from vCenter server listening
on https port 443.
Suggested action: Configure vCenter server to listen on standard https port 443.
