HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide, September 2009 (Update 5 Release)

Table A-2 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, consult the ISEE Installation and Configuration Guide for
additional information and instructions at

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.
