Summary

When you do not see data in System Management reports, you can check the following details.

Error

Fix

1.       Please ensure Topology is up and running:

-          Check topology connection and collection status

-          Check the topology configuration

-          Do they use https (port 443)?

-          Do they use OBR remote collector?

-          Check topology collector.log that collected SM_PA view from RTSM

-          Check PMDB\reconcile_registry\registryDump – you need to have Unix.csv or NT.csv

2.       Verify which version and ETL they have for System Performance Content Pack:

3.       Verify the version of OBR and patch level.

4.       Did they deploy views on RTSM:

-          Access Omi>Administration>RTSM>Modeling Studio

-          Navigate to “Resources” and check HP-SHR>SM>SM_PA

-          Does SM_PA contains any nodes with Operation Agent.

5.       Please verify that SM Domain and ETL streams are all in success and also all their steps:

-          Access Administration console>Data process Status

-          Navigate to SysPerfDomain and SysPerf_ETL_PerformanceAgent

6.       Please verify that they have connection/collection for servers in Admin Console> Operations Agents page.

7.       We can also verify that the Operation Agent has data:

-          ovcodautil –ping –n <node name>

-          ovcodautil –dumpds CODA –n <node name>

-          ovcodautil –dumpds SCOPE –n <node name>

-          Version of Operation Agent

-          Does CODA running (command on node itself):

ovc –status

8.       If we need to check data on Database level, we need to verify first:

-          Problematic report

-          Edit the report and see respective database tables in use

-          Query the tables in database

9.       Typical logs to check:

-          Topologycollector.log – check for any errors for topology collection and is the SM_PA view collected

-          Collection.log – check for connection problems to nodes with Operation agents

-          Hpacollector.log – check in details. Do we collect any data from SCOPE and CODA data sources from server with Operation Agent

-          Remotepoller.log – test connection results to nodes.

10.   Every time collect Capture tool in order to have all the logs.
