I recently installed PCNS 3.1 on vMA 5.5. This in an ESXi version 5.5.
I installed vMA and added my ESXi with 'vifp addserver server.domain.name' .
with 'vifp listserver'I can see that it is succesfully added.
Then, I installed Powerchute and configured it like this:
-IPV4
-Standalone VMware Host
-information to the ESXi server (IP address, username and password)
-Single UPS configuration.
-login information to the ups
the PCNS succesfully regsitered the UPS' management card.
The problem
------------------
I now go to the UPS' web ui and comamnd it to reboot the UPS (to test my PCNS obviously).
So I go to the event log in the PCNS and it show 'shutting down host IP ADDRESS'.
But when I view my ESXi it says 'Find entity by IP' and it doesn't do anything.
Both the PCNS and ESXi view these events every 30 seconds.
What can I do to make it actually work?
Thanks in advance.
