HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide, September 2008 (Update 3 Release)
Table A-1 Known Install and Update Problems (continued)
Description/ActionProblem
With the HP-UX 11i v3 March 2008 release, Online Diagnostics are
no longer started by default. Traditionally, HP Instant Support
Enterprise Edition (ISEE) depends on Online Diagnostics (EMS
listener) for event detection, however, if it is not started and you
notice anomalies in ISEE operation especially with regard to which
events are submitted, you must consult the ISEE Installation and
Configuration Guide.
What To Do
To check which version of diagnostics is running, run the following
command:
sfmconfig -w -e
The preceding command switches the diagnostics mode to "EMS".
In this mode, EMS Hardware Monitors are enabled and
SysFaultMgmt does not monitor any devices.
If the results show that only System Fault Manager is running
without Online Diagnostics (EMS listener) on your HP-UX device,
and anomalies exist in ISEE operation especially with regard to which
events are submitted, please consult the ISEE Installation and
Configuration Guide for additional information and instructions at
www.hp.com/learn/isee
Note: As of the HP-UX 11i v3 September 2008 OEUR, ISEE is no
longer included in the OEs. See the HP-UX 11i Version 3 September
2008 Release Notes for further information.
