Ping

I am not able to ping discovered systems.

Solution: If you manage more than 1,000 systems in HP SIM, tune the kernel parameters by adding the
following entries to the /etc/sysctl.conf file:

net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh3 = 4096

net.ipv6.neigh.default.gc_thresh3 = 4096

After adding the entries, reboot the system.

Printing

When printing a container view page that includes a Rack Display, the display does not print correctly.

Solution: In Internet Explorer, select Tools

Internet Options, then select the Advanced tab. Select

Printing

Print background colors and images. The system Details page should now print the Rack

Display correctly, showing all details of the rack.

When trying to print In Internet Explorer, I am receiving a message, stating that my printer is not configured.
In Mozilla, the print dialog box appears to print to a file.

Solution: The printer must be installed before trying to print in both Internet Explorer and Mozilla.

When printing lists or reports in HP SIM, selecting Landscape as the paper orientation is not changing the
printout to landscape.

Solution: From Control Panel

Printers, set the orientation to Landscape.
