  • 1.  CA Vantage: refresh SMI-S object collecting manually?

    Posted Nov 16, 2018 03:06 AM

    Hello,　

    is there a possibility to start the SMI-S Object Collection scans manually with a corresponding operator command?　

    Or can this only be achieved by reducing the scan intervals?　

     

    Thanks!

    Best regards,

    Andi

    Hi Andi,

     

    please try "F SAMS,REFRESH,CIMSUPP". This should rebuild all objects that are managed by the CIMMNGR task and should start a new collection confirmed by message

    Hello Achim,

     

    thank you very much, it work's!

    Unfortunately in the CA Vantage Windows Client under "RAID Devices - CIM Provider List", i get an ERROR in Column Status and can't find any indication what's leading to the error.

     

    Best regards,

    Hi Andi,

    glad it works. As for the ERROR status the help for the Object says:

     

    >
    CIM Provider List

    Status
    This identifies the "last known status" of each CIM
    Provider. A status of UNKNOWN indicates that
    CA Vantage has not tried to access the Provider since
    the last time the CIMLIST structure was built. A status
    of ERROR indicates that the last attempt to access the
    CIM Provider failed, while a status of NORMAL indicates
    that the last access to the Provider was successful.
    A value of ACTIVE indicates that CA Vantage
    is currently accessing the Provider.

    <

     

    In order to find out the cause of the ERROR status, I suggest you open a Support Case in Support Online.
    May be there is any related message in JESMSGLG or in the MSGE log that gives a clue.

     

    Best regards
