I cannot add remote server monitor using SSH password authentication.
Please
follow our suggestions below,
1) When adding that server monitor , please specify the correct command prompt
value, which is the last character in your command prompt after connecting to
that server with that appropriate username
Connect to the remote Linux/Freebsd/Mac OS/HP UX/Solaris server
and check the command prompt. Default value is $ and possible values are >
or # etc
To ensure this, access the file /etc/ssh/sshd_config (or /etc/sshd_config file) and verify the value of PasswordAuthentication variable. If it is set as 'no', modify it to 'yes' , uncomment that line and restart the SSH daemon using the command /etc/rc.d/sshd restart
3) Applications Manager can not add the server monitor (even though SSH2 is running) if the entry in </etc/ssh/sshd_config> (or /etc/sshd_config file) is 'Protocol 2,1'
Change the entry as below in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file (or /etc/sshd_config file), uncomment that line and then restart SSH2 daemon
protocol 2
4) Add the below lines in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file (or /etc/sshd_config file) in the remote server which are trying to add in Applications Manager and restart the SSH Daemon using the command /etc/rc.d/sshd restart (comment the lines if they are already present)
#Default Encryption algorithms and Message Authentication codes
#Ciphers aes128-ctr,aes128-cbc,arcfour,3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc
#MACS hmac-md5,hmac-sha1,hmac-sha1-96,hmac-md5-96
Note:You have to take backup of original file before modification

2) Send us copy of /etc/ssh/sshd_config file (or /etc/sshd_config) from the
remote server which are trying to add in Applications Manager via SSH
3) Open command prompt in remote server that you are trying to monitor in
Applications Manager with SSH
uname -a
/sbin/ifconfig -a
dladm show-link
hostname
4) Open command prompt in Applications Manager host and execute below command
with remote server hostname or ipaddress and send us the screenshot of the
output
telnet <hostname> <ssh_port>

telnet app-centos 22
5) Open command prompt in Applications Manager host and execute below commands
with remote server hostname and ipaddress and send us the screenshot of the
output
ping hostname
nslookup hostname

6) Try to add the server monitor in Applications Manager a couple of times and
then immediately create a new support information file and upload it to our
