Management Agents hang

[palm101]

Using the free version.

Found that the management agents tends to hang after a few days causing vsphere client to connect and hang half way through.

Needed to go to the console and restart management agents. Using a HP DL380 G6 so it is on the HCL.

Looks like I need to get iLo advanced for remote restart.

Check your logs. You shouldn't be experiencing this. Are you using the HP version? SD or installed.

I am using the HP version installed on a SD card.

I will check the logs.

I will post from the HP website just because and just in case. NOTE: HP does not support any other USB or SD flash devices.

I didnt face any issue when I installed the free version on RAID. If you can tell me the step by step procedure on how to install it on a SD card, I can help you solving this.
