I am deploying a few Windows Server 2012 servers on HP Proliant DL380p Gen 8 server hardware. In the past it was pretty simple to configure the HP Event Notifier to send us email alerts on faulty hardware (HDD, fans, power supplies, etc..) With Windows Server 2012, i am having to jump through all kinds of hoops.
I can get the Event Notification service installed and I am able to configure the Event Notificaiton Wizard if I run the application as administrator. However when I try to send Test traps nothing is happening.
I have confirmed that my SMTP server is set up to accept relay messages from my Proliant DL380. I am wondering if there is a guide or any steps on how to set up the hardware alerts for a DL380p Gen 8 in Windows Server 2012, or if anyone has been able to get it to work.
