If you confirm that process maps are not being updated, you can try the following actions to get process maps working correctly.

3.Check that the workload is defined for this host.

A workload receives process maps only for the host or hosts for or on which it is deployed. To check that a workload is defined for a host, click the Workloads tab in HP Matrix OE visualization. You may need to modify a workload to include this host or create a new workload for it. For help on this topic, see the HP Matrix OE Visualization with Logical Servers Help reference.

4.Check to see if the workload is parked.

A parked workload does not generate process maps anywhere. Process maps that existed prior to parking the workload are deleted. See the discussion of “General Workload Properties” in HP Matrix OE Visualization with Logical Servers Help and the glossary for information about parked workloads.

5.Check to see that the application associated with the workload is currently running.

In Application Discovery, click the Applications tab. Then, under the Running tab, sort by host. (Click the “Host” column header to toggle the list to sort in ascending or descending alphabetical order.) To rule out the possibility that the running application is hidden, click the drop-down menu above the 'Application Instances' to 'Show hidden apps'. If the application that you are looking for is not in this list, you must run the application so that it can be discovered.

6.Check that Application Discovery server is running on the CMS.

On HP-UX, type ps -elf grep amgrserver.jar on the command line of the CMS. You should see a Java process running the Application Discovery server.

If you do not see this Java process, type /opt/amgr/bin/cms_start . You must be logged in as user 'root' on the CMS to initiate this command.

On Microsoft Windows, type C:>net start on the command line of the CMS. You should see a service called Application Discovery in the list of running services.

If you do not see this service, type cms_start from any directory in the Matrix Operating Environment installed drive. You must be logged in as Administrator on the CMS to initiate this command.

NOTE: If none of these measures are sufficient, other underlying problems may be the cause. See also the suggestions in “Host not visible in Application Discovery screens” (page 42) that relate to communication between the Application Discovery server and the WBEM provider and between the WBEM provider and the Application Discovery agent.

Errors in Application Discovery user interface operation

Issues listed in this section include the following:

“UI “Unable to connect to server”messages” (page 47)

“Java “UI exception” message displays” (page 48)

UI “Unable to connect to server”messages

1.Application Discovery might not be correctly configured.

Run vseinitconfig -aon the command line to correct the configuration of Application Discovery. (See also vseinitconfig(1M).)

TIP: Alternatively, you can run I300appdisc.pl --aon the command line to limit the configuration change to Application Discovery.

Matrix Operating Environment Software specifications

HP Matrix Operating Environment (MOE) is an innovative software platform designed to deliver efficient management and orchestration of IT resources across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. It provides a comprehensive solution for organizations that require a robust and flexible environment to manage their IT operations seamlessly.

One of the main features of HP MOE is its ability to optimize resource utilization by automating the provisioning and management of infrastructure components. This includes the ability to rapidly deploy servers, storage, and networking resources in a manner that meets the dynamic needs of modern businesses. This automation significantly reduces the time and effort required for manual configurations, enabling IT teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine tasks.

The software offers a unified management interface that provides visibility into the entire IT environment. Users can monitor performance metrics, track resource allocation, and manage workflows through a single dashboard. This centralized control not only simplifies operations but also enhances decision-making capabilities by providing real-time insights into system health and performance.

Another critical characteristic of HP MOE is its support for both physical and virtual resources. The platform is designed to seamlessly integrate with existing infrastructure, making it easier for organizations to adopt virtualization and hybrid cloud strategies. Its compatibility with industry-standard hypervisors allows businesses to leverage their current investments while taking advantage of the benefits of virtualization.

HP MOE incorporates advanced technologies such as automation scripts, APIs, and tools for workload balancing. This technological backbone enables organizations to implement elasticity in their environments, allowing them to scale resources up or down based on demand. The software also supports a service-oriented architecture, facilitating integration with other enterprise applications and systems.

Security is a top priority in the design of HP MOE. The software provides robust security features that ensure data integrity and protect against unauthorized access. This includes role-based access controls, encryption, and compliance reporting, all of which contribute to a secure operating environment.

In summary, HP Matrix Operating Environment Software is a powerful solution that addresses the complexities of managing modern IT resources. Its key features include automation, unified management, support for physical and virtual environments, and strong security measures. With its ability to enhance efficiency and streamline operations, HP MOE is an essential tool for organizations looking to stay competitive in an increasingly digital landscape.
