A Important Notes
System and object names must be unique
System and object names must be unique in HP SIM.
For example, the name of a Virtual Connect Domain must not be identical to the name of a Virtual
Connect Switch, or they can be confused in HP SIM. The Virtual Connect Domain is a virtual system
with no physical network address. The Virtual Connect Switch is a physical system that is network
addressable.
Setting the Primary DNS Suffix for the CMS
IMPORTANT:
If the Windows server you are installing HP SIM onto is a multi-homed system
serving up multiple IP addresses across multiple domains, then it is important that the server has
the primary DNS suffix defined for the system. The primary DNS suffix must be displayed in the
System Properties as part of the Full computer name for the server.
In Windows:
Procedure 37 Setting the Primary DNS suffix of the CMS BEFORE installation
1.
From the Windows Control Panel, click System. The System Properties window appears.
2.
Select the Computer Name tab. The Computer Name window appears.
3.
Click More. The DNS Suffix and NetBIOS Computer Name window appears.
4.
Enter the primary DNS suffix name in the Primary DNS suffix of this computer field.
5.
Continue clicking OK until you return to the Control Panel.

Virtual machine guest memory reservation size
If HP SIM is installed on a virtual machine guest, but does not start and an empty
mxdomainmgr.0.log
file is observed in the installation/logs directory, then use the virtual
machine configuration tools to set the guest's memory reservation size to be a minimum of 4GB.
