Troubleshooting steps

  1. In SCOM console navigate to Authoring -> Management Pack Templates -> HYCU SCOM MP for Nutanix: Application Awareness Configuration and check if the wizard was started to create a new template instance with accounts. If wizard was not started, then please follow the steps to setup WinRM Account.
  1. In SCOM console navigate to Administration -> Run As Configuration -> Accounts and check credentials for all HYCU Nutanix AppAwareness Account for .... Please set valid credentials: account name and password (in case VM is part of a certain domain, e.g. 'domain.com', set account name as "accountname@domain.com").
  1. After credentials are set wait at least 6 hours for discovery to reappear. In case you don't want to wait so long, you can overwrite the discovery intervals as described below.

NOTE (How to override discovery intervals): 
Navigate to Authoring -> Management Pack Objects -> Object Discoveries and search for:

  • Application Awareness Discovery
  • Application Awareness Discovery on User VMs

In both objects override Discovery IntervalDiscovery Spread and Timeout to desired values (e.g. 900, which is 15 minutes for Discovery Interval, 300, i.e. 5 minutes for both Discovery Spread and Timeout).
