HP w2207 monitor issue no input

Is HP ever going to rectify the issue with no dvi or no input? The hp user community has been reporting this problem for years, over and over. It is so frustrating to have this msg in the middle of an important document such as taxes or a spreadsheet. Loosing all of that data and starting over is brutal and discouraging, and time consuming.
I would like the results of your testing for this issue to be posted, including dates and what resolution is being rolled out to compensate users of this apparently defective device. I should not have to buy another monitor because of your defect, and a warranty has no place when it comes to a defect! The item needs to be fixed or replaced by your organization and rolled out as an update period..

Hello i-cicle,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that your having issues with your HP w2207 monitor. The first thing we need to do is restore your monitor back to factory. Now since your monitor OCD menu does not show up in English we are going to approach this in a different manner.
When the main menu shows up I want you to look for a symbol that looks like the image below.
The image is the image for the Factory Reset. I want you to select that option and apply it. This should restore your monitor back to factory settings, since according page 4-5 of the User Guide for your monitor the factory default language is English we should once again be able to read the options available.
Now this potentially could resolve all of your issues with the monitor or at least some of them. I would ask that if there are any issues that are still unresolved that you re-post and I will endeavor to offer additional assistance. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Cant use DVI-D port with DVI-D cable from Pav 500-100a to HP W2207 monitor

I have a new Pav 500-100a factory standard with no mods. A HP w2207 monitor.
Currently connect fine with VGA to the DVI-D port with the adapter that came with the pc. I've setup Windows, updated to 8.1, put in my files from my old PC and all was well except video isnt that good.
I got a DVD cable form work but its a DVI-I cable. It took 5 mins before windows comes up and then whenever the background picture changed in the theme it hung for a few seconds. I read that I need a DVD-D cable which i purchasd today.
The packet says its a CL-DVI2M - DVI M/M 24+1 CABLE 2M. The tech in the shop says its a good calbe and will work fine.
When connected and I power up I get teh hp logo and rolling dots then it goes blank.
I reconnect teh VGA cable and its all fine - using the VGA to DVI adapter.
I ran msconfig and turned of safe boot - restarts and comes up fine in safe mode. I set the resolution to 1280x800 and restarted and reconnected the DVI cable - blank again.
If I put the VGA cable back in it boots fine. The monitor has been factory reset and seens the DVI connection but Windows remains blank. Also tried booting first with no cable - connect teh DVI and the monitor remains in sleep - power reset teh monitor and still blank also shows no DVO conenction.
I fI power up with DVI connected I can get to BIOS, and i see the HP logo and dots as Win 8 starts.
I dont know what else I can try. I have no other usable video card with DVI
Any ideas out there?
Pls help - Steve

Hi Steve,
Only connect one active video cable to the monitor and do not use any adapters.
Use a flashlight and examine the DVI connector on the monitor. Which DVI type is it?
Some of the older HP monitors have DVI issues so you might want to check with HP Support and see if you have one of those models.
An older post a long time back indicated that audio also had to be feed to the monitor (claimed by a poster). If this is indeed true then it's a monitor design flaw. So, you could use a native HDMI cable and test out that claim.

HP w2207 Monitor - "No Video Signal" After Power Outage

My mother has a Mac Mini - 2009 model - that I bought her. It is connected to an HP w2207 monitor I used to have with a mini-display port to DVI [I think, either that or VGA] adaptor. She lives 2 1/2 hours away.
Last week there was a power outage and ever since she cannot get her system to work. Her monitor says "No Video Signal" and then goes to sleep.
I worked with her for over an hour on the phone trying to fix this problem (oh what fun). Tried every combination of things I know to fix it. It seems from her description that the Mac Mini is not actually booting. When I have her turn the computer off by (press the power button, wait, press it again), she reports that she will here the disk drive spin up for 10 seconds but then no more activity. The green light is on, but that is it.
I had her reset the SCM, but that didn't work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

See if the Mini will boot from the install disk. If it does, have your mom use Disk Utility to repair her internal hard drive. Repeat running repair until Disk Utility gives the disk a clean bill of health. Then repair permissions.
Disk Warrior can sometimes repair things Disk Utility can't. However, it's possible the internal directory is beyond help. In that case, erasing the internal disk and reinstalling the system will be necessary. It's also possible that the disk itself or electronic components in the Mini have been damaged which would require repair at the Mac hospital.

Trouble with color on Presario, No red tones on display. Not a monitor issue.

Am experiencing trouble with color on Presario, model no. CQ5500F. Purchased a couple of years ago, and trouble was present immediately. Am getting no red tones - red items appear black or sometimes blue. Was told by HP that it was a monitor issue, and let computer slide out of warranty. installed new monitor today and problem still exists. Is this merely a display adjustment of some kind? Or will I have to pay HP their $99 for a one time fix? Any suggestions appreciated.

Hello UncleBob62,
It could be the display driver that is not properly working
1. Click on the start icon
2. Right click on computer and go to properties
3. Select Device Manager
4. Expand display adapters and right click on the video card driver and uninstall
The computer screen will go blank
On the keyboard press the windows key the right arrow key twice and then the letter R.
At this point your computer is going to reboot. After the reboot Windows will install generic drivers for your video card. Do you still see a lack of red tones?

Multiple Monitor Issue

Alright, so I have a 15" Macbook Pro with the dual graphics cards (GeForce 9600M GT and GeForce 9400M GT 256 version). It's the 2.66 intel processor one. Anyway, I've been trying to figure out this dual monitor issue that I've been having for a few days now. When I'm using the 9400M card and I plug into my mini displayport everything works just fine. This includes the VGA cord, the HDMI, as well as a standard Apple monitor. Now, when I switch over to the higher end graphics card, as soon as I plug into the mini displayport my screen goes black. And that's it. I can't do anything. I have to hold the power button down until the computer turns off.
I've been searching for days in order to find an answer to this question or if anyone has ever had a similar problem and no one could help me. I even went to the genius bar and no one could help either. Keep in mind I've tried this in a variety of ways. I've plugged the monitor in after the computer was running, I've had it plugged in while the computer was turning on, and each time after the initial boot up everything goes black.
To make matters worse, I originally came across this issue because I use Windows 7 on bootcamp and I wanted to use dual monitors within Windows. Bootcamp is only set to use the 9600M graphics card which is the one giving me all the heartache and apparently there's no way around it. If anyone has the slightest clue as to what's going on here or why it would be doing such a thing, let me know. Thanks.

Jon: Thanks for answering those questions. Run the Apple Hardware Test that you'll find on one of the DVDs that came with your MBP. If any errors are reported, go back to the Genius Bar with the error codes reported by AHT and ask to have the machine repaired.
If you have extended AppleCare protection, you have a TechTool Deluxe CD/DVD. You can also use that to test your hardware. If it reports any errors, take the exact wording and error codes from that report along with you to the GB, too.
The problem is not with your three external displays or your cables, adapters, or your MBP's mini-Displayport, because they all work fine with the 9400M. The problem isn't some wrong contact that's being made momentarily as you insert the mini-Displayport plug into the port, because it occurs even when the cable is securely connected before starting up the computer. It seems to me the problem must reside either in your 9600M GT or in its connection to the mini-displayport.

Graphics card issue or monitor issue?

Hello, i have a MacPro 2.66 w/ an ATI x1900 and a MacBookPro with th nVidia 8600
i recently purchased a 28" Hanns-g Display which i upgraded from my 20" apple cinema display, im curious if this could be a graphic issue or a monitor issue:
When i connect the 28" monitor to my ATI card (port 1) and boot into 10.4.10 (macPro) i noticed diagonal lines that seem to "scroll" (like an overscan line or something) on greyish and lighter backgrounds.
tried it with the second port, same thing, it does it on all resolutions
(it runs @ 1920x1200).
when i boot into XP and try the same sites i did in 10.4.10 it doesnt do it at all, its as it should.
I tried both VGA>DVI and HDMI>DVI to the ATI on OSX but it only does it with the HDMI>DVI connection under OSX, VGA looks fine.
(btw my ati card is clean as a whistle, no dust or anything)
However if i plug it into my MacBookPRo with hdmi>DVI it doesnt do that at all.
so im wondering probably incompatible monitor or what?
im looking to getting a 30" Apple Display but not if its gonna act up like that on my macpro, none of this appeared on my ACD 20".
any suggestions or tips?
thanks!

im not experiencing scan line son my 30" ACD display under OSX or XP with my ATI, could be the monitor you are using, but if its not doing it with your MBP than.....idk
sonds strange, try another gfx card or another macpro if possible.

Advice needed for a W2207 monitor

My neighbor gave me a W2207 monitor that wouldn't work. I used to repair the old tube-type tv's many years ago and thought I'd give it a try to fix it. After taking it apart I found that if I had to use a hair drier on the powerboard everytime I wanted ti use it. I did the usual looking for cracks on the board and bad solder joints. I spent some time on resoldering the board hoping to find something but, that didn't work. So, I bought another powerboard. Installed it and the monitor worked great. No hair drier needed anymore. But then I messed it up. I was using it with just the screen propped up against the tower until I was satisfied that it would keep working before I put the whole thing back together. I was reaching around back of the monitor when I bumped the propped up screen and the VGA plug came out part way making the screen turn green. I turned off the computer and monitor. Plugged in the VGA cable back in but this time with the screws. Turned on the monitor but now was greeted with just a white screen, no video. The power button turned or orange after few seconds. I booted up the computer. The power button turned blue again like it was now getting a video signal but still no video just a white screen. I figured I blew the video board so I bought another board. Installed it but still the white screen and no video. The computer is fine as I'm using it now with the original monitor. Anyone ever had any experience with this monitor that can give an idea or two? Sorry for the long post. Thanks a bunch.

Playing off the Timeline via firewire( XdCam pal) Monitoring Issues

Hey,
I have just switched to FCP and have found that when recording the from the FCP timeline manually via firewire into a Sony XDCam PDW530 I experience 4:3 flashes in the Camera monitor and viewfinder as the timeline plays down Video Transitions. All effects have been rendered (Blue line above transition)
However the Camera appears to record correctly to disc. I played the recorded material from the camera via an XD deck into a wide screen monitor and all appears fine the 4:3 flashes are not present on transitions. play the disc back in the camera and the 4:3 flashes for the duration of the Video Transitions return????
when playing out of the Camera via SDI and Analogue Composite outputs into a wide screen monitor all appears ok as well.
It's a little odd that you cannot monitor the output correctly on the XDcam. If i change the pull down settings from 2323 to 2332 it monitors the transitions correctly but the video aspect is somewhere between 4:3 and 16:9.
Shoot in 16:9 Capture DV Pal, Edit DV Pal, Playback Output Apple FireWire Pal (720 x 576)
Any ideas????

Thanks Shane,
We have been down the PRINT TO VIDEO road with the same playback issues in the XD Camera's LCD screen. We still see the 4:3 transition on the 16:9 image when playing off the timeline / playing back the recorded media in the camera and viewing on cameras screen .
I guess this is only a monitor issue. If you don't include any video effects it plays down 16:9 perfectly in the cameras monitor
What is recorded onto the disc is fine.
Also my understanding is the what's coming off the timeline is a DV stream so not sure how the GOP format comes into play. Recording onto a XD Cam off the timeline thru other edit programmes has never been an issue. I have come from Avid Pinnacle and the monitoring of transitions was never an issue when streaming back to the xdcam.
Thanks

Dell Tablet Dock FW Update 0.41.23, A03 with Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139) - monitors issue

Hello,
I have Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139).
I have installed “Dell Tablet Dock FW Update 0.41.23, A03” http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=97N0V (previous version was Version 0.41.19, A02). Installation completed successfully, but my monitors (connected though DP and HDMI) disappeared after installation (system do not see any monitor connected trough Dell Tablet Dock).
I have restarted system, disconnected / reconnected power from “Dell Tablet Dock” – nothing helped.
I tried to revert to previous version 0.41.19, A02, but the installation process requires monitors to be connected to “Dell Tablet Dock”. But they are connected, system simply do not see them!
Could you help me with this issue or with advice, hot to force previous version 0.41.19, A02 installation (to ignore monitor connection check)?
Thanks,
Aleksandrs

Hi,
I had almost the same problem. I used Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139) with Dock and NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX through HDMI-DVi cable. There were no probs while tablet was on, however when it was sleeping or off the NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX permanently (each 2-3 seconds) showed the sign that there were no input signal. It was not critical for me, however it was one more my disappointment in Dell new products (I have used Dell latitude D620 and dock for 7 years without any problems, thats why I chose Dell Venue 11 Pro, assuming that the Dell quality remains the same... I was wrong, Dell Venue 11 Pro has too much loose ends).
Yesterday I updated Dock firmware to “Dell Tablet Dock FW Update 0.41.23, A03” and Dell lost NEC. I.e. the monitor was connected, but the tablet just did not want to see it or recognise. I connected dock to another monitor Samsung SyncMaster 226CW (took from my friend) through the same HDMI-DVI cable and found that it is working with it. So I decided to downgrade the Dock firmware to 0.41.19, A02 (the only previous version I found at dell support), however it was impossible with my NEC, as tablet didn't see it. I connected again the tablet to Samsung SyncMaster 226CW which was recognised through the dock and successfully downgraded the firmware to 0.41.19, A02. Afterwards connected my old NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX and fortunately it was found by my Dell tablet and dock. Now it's working.

Windows 7 and Multiple Monitor Issues

Alright, I have spent the past 3 days searching these forums as well as on Microsoft's support pages and all of Google to find the answer to my issue and it seems as though I'm the only one who is running into this problem.
I have a 15 inch Macbook Pro with the GeForce 9600M GT Nvidia Graphics card with the latest version of Mac OSX and Bootcamp installed on it. I have Windows 7 installed in bootcamp. I just purchased a Mini DisplayPort to VGA cord with a VGA cord so as to connect my computer to my Sony Bravia HDTV to use as a second monitor. I plug in the cords, plug them into my TV, and put it into the proper input and it works like a charm. Then I go and boot up in bootcamp under Windows 7, plug in the cord, and my screen gets to the "starting windows" logo and then it goes black. I push ever button, I try control alt delete, nothing. I have to hold down the power button to turn off the computer and then turn it back on.
I turn it on, boot up into Windows 7, let it load, then plug in the cord, and the computer display instantly goes black, again, and yet nothing displays on the TV. Again, I try everything to no avail, so I power it off and back on. I go through this at least 10 times to no avail. I finally give up and try again the next day.
Next day, I plug it in, and the monitor stays up, but yet nothing is displayed on the TV. I go to my resolution settings in Windows, and go to the multiple monitors tab, and select every possible option (extend, duplicate, etc) and nothing will display on my TV. I try to change the settings to which it responds with "unable to save display settings" and nothing changes. I attempt to enter the nvidia program and make changes that way. The TV is detected, but when I select it and attempt to apply anything, no changes take effect and I am left with only the laptop display. Keep in mind I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the video drivers and such.
Finally I get fed up so I purchase a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapted and a DVI to HDMI adapter. I try again. Again in OSX it launches immediately, no problems. I go back into Windows, and immediately I'm dealing with the instant black screen.
I'm going crazy over here trying to figure this out. I know it's possible to do this because I've seen people on youtube doing this and again it works on OSX so why the heck won't it work? If anyone has any idea what's going on here please help me out. Thanks.

JonMarx... I'm having the exact same problem. I'm in the exact same situation as you are. I'm going mad, and it's only by divine providence that I've finally located the only other person who knows what I've been going through. I've spent at least 20 hours trying to get this started back up, to no avail.
I had the secondary display working peachy for a while, long enough to configure everything to be exactly how I wanted it. I unplugged the monitor from the computer just to see what would happen, and that's when the problems started. I managed to get it to work one last time for a brief period a few hours later, but the way it just clicked on made it feel too good to be true.
I've had a wierd problem with a phantom display as well. The display will frequently show up as being available in both the nVIDIA panel and the windows settings, but if I apply the settings, they won't go through. I got a few screenshots of it the last time it happened.
I was just about to reinstall windows completely, but it seems that I'll just run into the same problem again if I do... Here's to hoping a solution is found.

External Monitor Issues - MacBook Pro +Acer

Hello Everyone!!
I currently have my new Macbook Pro hooked up to a Thunderbolt display and all is running well! BUT, I also have a mid 2009 MBP that I am setting up with a new ACER S271HL monitor (one of their newer models) and I am having some "quality" issues. The MBP is utilizing 8G of RAM with a 500G HD: approximately 400G available, running the most current version of LION with all updates and runs nicely. I didn't have any connectivity issues using a new Startech mini-display port to HDMI adapter and a new Monster HDMI cable. The ACER monitor is one of the newest models with resolution of 1920x1080 and the MBP did not have any issues recognizing it and I have not had any problems with "setting it up"- all resolutions are supported and recognized and everything seems ok. I began by using MAC's Color Sync Utility and customized the monitor profile. Then I did some fine tweaking with the monitor controls themselves - no issues. The PROBLEM is that it just doesn't look good!!!! The text is not sharp in any document, browser tabs, content, etc. - the whole thing is kind of dull?! Video is ok at best - but again, not sharp. So, I tried the Color Synch Utility again and had a second person set up a profile just to make sure I'm not going crazy?! - same result?! I tried a different HDMI cable (new) - same result. I tried a different mini-display to HDMI adapter - same result. I reset the SMC and the PRAM - same result?!?! I tried moving the monitor to another location to see if it was just the light and my eyes - no good. I switched to a mini-display to DVI adapter/cable - same result. NOW, the thing that is really bothering me here is that my office uses older ACER monitors - discontinued V213H - I have three set up with an "older" DELL PC (no hot- rodded graphics/video card - standard, boring, office PC) and they LOOK GREAT?!?! So, I hooked my office laptop up to the new ACER monitor I bought and it LOOKED GREAT!?!?! (with NO CONFIGURATION) I even used an old ratty VGA cable and it looked SO much better!?!? I took the MBP to the office and hooked it up the work monitors and it only looked ok - better than on the new display, but still not sharp!?
So then I tried the driver route...ACER actually has a specific APPLE disclaimer of sorts on their support page indicating, that although their monitors are configured to work with all current computer models, that are tested in a PC environment and you may encounter issues that should be addressed with APPLE?! Even though the monitor drivers I had are listed as the most current, I tried downloading them anyway - the MBP downloads them, but cannot install them because they are not recognized?!? (All the support documentation, installation CD, etc. that came with the monitor was not recognizable by the MAC either)
SO - does anyone else have similar issues with ACER monitors?? Know of anyone else that might??? I can't hook up the MBP to the Thunderbolt display to really rule out a problem - but I'm confident this is not a hardware issue with any of the components.
I hate to give up on this because I'm setting it up for a friend so I figure I'll give it a few more days and see what kinds of ideas others might come up with before I throw in the towel and take this sucker back!
Thanks for reading my 'novel' of a post - any ideas are greatly appreciated!!!

i had the same problem, i solved it by buying a more higher end "hdmi to vga" wire, i 1st bought a cheap conversion wire "hdmi to vga" from a slow boat from china via Amazon and it didn't work on my macbook but seems to be working well on my windows laptop.
so i bought another conversion wire via Amozon "hdmi to vga" from a company called Sewell Quirts in a 10' version.... now my mac mirrors or extend my laptop monitor, hope this helps.
and its not a "file" issue like everyone else says in here.
and my acer monitor is an older one with only a dvi and vga inputs.... using it to extend my 2014 macbook pro retina.

Macbook Pro w/ 30 inch Dell monitor issue SOLVED

I was amazed at the huge problems Apple apparently had with the bizarre $99 adapter that enables 30 inch dual channel display for the new Mini Displayport machines, including the current Macbook Pros. The reports of problems here were terrible, and I frankly waited six months or more to buy my next machine because of these problems -- Apple should be more careful about products like this.
I'm happy to report that the Mini Displayport to Displayport cable from Monoprice works GREAT with my Dell 30 inch monitor (the current one, I can't find the number since it's hidden on the back but it's the current model they sell). Fully compatible in both Mac and Windows, video seems fine, and no issues that affect display quality. The only issue I have noticed is, when the monitor goes to sleep and I wake it up again on the Mac side, it displays strange lines. Any change in monitor color or resolution causes this to go away, so all I have to do is go to 16 bit color and back again. On top of everything, the cable is dirt cheap.
Here it is:

feel free to comment with your own experiences.
Ok. But, what have you solved?
First off, the 'huge problems' that you mention pertain to the Apple mini-DisplayPort to Dual Link DVI adapter. There's nothing 'bizarre' about that adapter - it allows you to connect a display requiring a dual-link DVI (i.e. up to 2560x1600) to your MBP. Those issues were not really that common (judging frequency of problems by reading these forums is like judging human health by visiting an Emergency Room - you'd think most of the population was sick or injured). If you went by forum problem reports, you'd never buy any product.
More importantly, the _cable you linked above is an entirely different product_, a mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. It has nothing to do with DVI (note that Apple doesn't even make a mini-Dp to DP cable). If your display has a DisplayPort input (as the Dell 30" does) then it's fine. If your display has only DVI input (such as the Apple 30" Cinema Display), the cable you link is useless.
But, although I find it utterly unsurprising that a mini-DP to DP cable will allow one to connect a mini-DP port on a computer to a DP port on a display, good to know that in that instance, the dirt cheap cable from Monoprice does the job.

MacBookPro DVI output to Monitor DVI-D input

Where can I find a compatible cable that will let me connect my MacBookPro (early 2008) to my ViewSonic VX2025 DVI-D input.
I have spoken to the Apple store staff, and the AppleCare support team, and neither departments could come up with a solution, or answer.
Please can somone point me in the right direction? I am sure one person out there has come across this issue before.
PS:
Before suggesting I use the VGA input on the monitor; this is in use by my Xbox 360 (which will not work using a VGA-DVI adapter).
Many thanks in advance for anyone who is able to help.
My email adress is not working so if anyone woulf like to get me via email, please send to [email protected]

You need the Apple Mini-DVI to DVI-D adapter, and a male-to-male DVI-D cable like one of these:

2nd monitor says in input - what to do?

Hello. I have been having trouble getting a 2nd monitor to connect with my computer on the windows side. Two days ago the monitor just quit working and says no input when I turn it on. I have checked drivers for HP, nvidia, and updated my apple software on the mac side.
Two days ago suddenly the monitor began working. I have no idea why. I suspected that updating the apple software might have finally kicked. It worked for awhile yesterdat morning but then suddenly quit and I've not been able to get it started again.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi again Loner T. OK I read over all again. Let me see if I understand what you are saying to do:
First, download bootcamp software from apple-support-downloads. I found a place where it linked my computer to files and took me to bootcamp 4.0.4033. I follow directions on the apple site where it says to double click the file to uncompress it and then save all to a usb flash drive. That's what you mean above I think. I am gathering I download this on the apple side?
Open windows.
Go through and uninstall each of the windows drivers provided by apple that you have pictured above.
Then follow instructions on the apple website per what you say above by clicking on setup.exe.
This should reinstall the windows drivers and correct problems that downloads from windows may have created. Is that correct? I am thinking, however, that this is not the source of my problems. The install date on all these is 7-18-12 rather than a recent update that might have caused problems.
So I can do this. However, this doesn't deal with the issue of the nvidia graphics display card. Again, following other online suggestions for a clear install I deleted this file. The display card now does not show up in the Device Manager nor is there an Nvidia control panel in the control panel window. (The nvidia control panel, however, is still listed in Programs and Features as is a file called Nvidia drivers. What to do about this? I am assuming that this is needed for the display. I know the nvidia control panel was where I could see the connection with the monitor when this was working properly.
Thanks. Michael

Pco monitoring issue.

Hi Experts,
I m trying to achieve Pco monitoring in SAP MII 14.0. I m refering following document:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_pco21/helpdata/en/f2/b1d0e885284db2baabef7eea15373e/content.htm
I m able to do the Alert Configuration using active monitoring.
But what condition should i check in MII transaction or which parameter from remote monitoring will tell me that PCo is down?
I want to send e-mail once PCo is down.
I have enabled the active monitoring and configured the MII system and got test connecttion as success.
I am able to see the all projects in MII server . I configured the transaction and input variable (xml). After click on ok ,getting success message.
After that I could not see any trx in transaction manager.
I made dataserver connection to pco as error but still I could not see the configured trx in transation manager.
Pls suggest me to overcome this issue.
Configuration:
SAP MII 14.0
PCO 2.3 SP3

Raj.

Hi Raj,
Question: But what condition should i check in MII transaction or which parameter from remote monitoring will tell me that PCo is down?
Answer: The MII Transaction will called only when the PCo agent goes down or not able to connect to its source system. So you need not check anything in MII. The input param of the MII transaction will receive the error detection time-stamp and the node name (PCo instance or PCo and agent instance).
Question: I made dataserver connection to pco as error but still I could not see the configured trx in transation manager
Answer: Making the MII PCo data server go down or disabling it will not execute the alert or call the configured MII transaction. When the PCo agent is not able to connect to its source system then the configure MII transaction will be called.
Hope that these clarifications will clear your doubts.
Regards,
Rohit Negi.
