What is the latest version of HP SIM for ESX 3.0.1 and does anyone know where I can find it?

Trying to navigate and search HP's site is like pulling your own hair out..

thanks

7.7.0 appears to be the latest

You can't search for VMware or ESX... The trick is to go to Software and Drivers... then put in your server (like DL585), then under all the possible drivers for that server, you'll see VMware ESX near the bottom

Ok..I need to get the latest HP SIM agent again which is 7.9.0

Is HP's download site just retarded or is it me?

But when I click on the link to go to the new location I get "We apologize, we were unable to find the driver description document you requested"

WTF?

there are issues with 7.9.0 spawning zombie processes every 5 mins,

7.9.1 is now out and has fixed the 7.9.0 problems and i downloaded from HP yesterday, cant remeber link im afraid,

You can find the agent on the hp site under drivers from your product.

Go to support en driver download, choose the server you have and then choose your os (esx 3.xx)

Then click management software and voila there it is

Since we're ressurecting an old thread...

The following page contains all the information you could possibly want about HP and VMware ESX in a very neat tabular format, including which hardware is supported with particular revisions of ESX servers, links to the downloads for those hosts, VMotion compatibility guides as well as: which version of the HP SIM agents are supported with which ESX revision.

The page has been around for some time and is maintained quite well.
