In this case, you may need to repair the HP Systems Insight Manager agent on the managed
system. Click the following menu selections: Configure, then Configure or Repair Agents.
Make sure to check the box for 'configure SSH access' before running the repair agent.

To verify that the repair action has resolved any SSH configuration problem, you can issue
a remote ls command toward the managed system by doing the following:

a.

Select Tools

Command Line Tools UNIX/Linux ls...

b.

In the text field, type /tmp

If the contents in /tmp are visible, then SSH is working correctly.

Ssh Operation failed for node:managed_node.
The connection could not be established.
Reason:Failed to read remote identification

In conjunction with this, you may also notice that running mxagentconfig and selecting

Configure or Repair Agents fail on the target managed node.

To reconfigure SSH on the managed node, do the following steps:

1.

Log on the managed node as user root.

2.

# cd /.ssh /* <root_user_home_directory>/.ssh */

3.

# rm * /* Erase all possible corrupted contents */

4.

# ssh-keygen -b 2048 -t rsa /* Generate root ssh key */

5.

# ps -elf|fgrep sshd /* Find the sshd PID */

6.

# kill -1 <pid> /* Re-start sshd */

7.

# mxagentconfig -a -n managed_node
