  • 1.  HPE IMC - Custom Device Panel

    Hello everyone.

    We use the HPE IMC PLAT 7.3 (E0605P06) to manage our network. Most of our switches are HPE models (7510, 5500, 3600, 5120, etc...) but a few years ago we got some Aruba hardware as well.

    One model os the InstantOn 1930 24G. It  works fairy well, but the function to show the "Device Panel" that should show the switch fontal face shows a different picture, with a different one, more gerenic and with a wrong number of ports.

    Is there a way to correct the image to the correct one?

    Attached the image we are getting.

    If anyone has any idea, it would be helpful.

    Have a nice day!

    RR

    You need to create custom device panel with Visual Panel Designer. 


    You can find VPD installer on IMC distribution under PLAT/linux/tools/VDP.

    Hello Gorazd, thanks for the reply.

    I can't seem to find the VPD on my current installation (IMC 7.3) for windows.

    Is it tied with a specific version?

    Hi.

    No, it is not tied to specific verzion. It should be in iMC distribution files not on installed environment. If you unpack the distribution, you should look into PLAT directory. I only have linux iMC environment, hence path is most probably somewhat different on Windows, but you should have tools directory somewhere on it.

    In worst case you can download linux version and extract files from it. VPD is windows application anyway.
