Hi,

I try to configure OnCommand with host package on VMware but discovery failed after registering the host services

error is due to plugin missing - type of plugin is not specified

Vcenter server is 64 bits 2008R2, VMware 5i

OnCommand Core 5.0 on linux server

OnCommand Host package 1.1

no errors during installation

services are started

could someone help ?

thanks a lot

Guillaume

hi,

we found what was wrong in my case. It was related to network configuration / resolution.

check DNS, long name resolution, nslookup

even try to ping by himself the vcenter...

hope this helps

Hi,

You can check the application logs in eventviewer of HS machine.

In core package: "C:\Program Files\NetApp\DataFabric Manager\DFM\log" in windows and "/opt/NTAPdfm/log" in Linux. in core package look into dfmmonitor.log and dfmserver.log.
