Installing and Configuring the Software

Install HP Systems Insight Manager:

swinstall -s /directory/depot –x autoreboot=true HPSIM-HP-UX

where directory is the path to the depot file and depot is the name of the depot file. For example:

swinstall -s /tmp/HPSIM_download.depot –x autoreboot=true HPSIM-HP-UX

	NOTE: All required dependencies are selected automatically for installation.

(Optional, required only if you plan to use an Oracle database). Configure HP SIM to use a newly created Oracle database using the following command:

/opt/mx/bin/mxoracleconfig

The command executes and asks for user information for the the following host/port/Database/Username/Password/Jar file path with the file name.

mxoracleconfig

Or

Mxoracleconfig -h hostname -n port number -d database name -u user name -p password -j driver jar file location] [-f ]

–h Hostname

Full DNS name or IP address of the Oracle server.

-n Port number

Port number to be used to connect to the oracle instance. Default port is 1521.

–d Database name

Name of database instance.

–u Username

Database user name.

–p Password

Database password for the corresponding user name.

–j Driver file location

Full path to thin driver jar file. This is not required if the jar file is already in the class path for HP SIM and jboss. Mxoracleconfig will report an error if the driver class cannot be loaded. Mxoracleconfig will not copy over a jar file if it already exists in the classpath for HP SIM and jboss.

–f Force flag to force a re-run.

Typically this command is run only once. This flag is provided if a re-run is required because of some type of user error such as specifying the wrong Oracle server or database instance.

Test the prerequisites:

/opt/mx/bin/mxinitconfig –l

This verifies and list all the prerequisites are present. You can review the log file found in /var/opt/mx/logs/initconfig.log to verify that the initialization completed.

	NOTE: HP SIM recommends resolving any warnings before continuing with the setup process.

Initialize HP Systems Insight Manager:

/opt/mx/bin/mxinitconfig -a

Note: The initialization of the upgrade is done in the background, which takes several minutes. To verify if the upgrade is 100% complete, view the file /var/opt/mx/logs/initconfig.log.

Verify that the mxdomainmgr and mxdtf daemons are running:

ps -ef | grep mx

If they are not running, start them:

/opt/mx/bin/mxstart

(Optional) If you plan to run the Mozilla browser on the CMS verify that Mozilla 1.7.3 or later is installed. To verify which version is installed, open the Mozilla browser, and select Help> About Mozilla.

(Optional) To use the CMS as a managed system, install WBEM, if it is not already installed. Because WBEM requires OpenSSL, be sure OpenSSL is installed on the CMS by running:

swlist OpenSSL

If this command returns "Error: Software "OpenSSL" was not found on host", then OpenSSL is not installed.

OpenSSL is available on Software Depot at

http://www.hp.com/go/softwaredepot or on your operating system media.

	NOTE: To verify if WBEM (cimserver, cimserverd) daemons are running: ps -ef | grep wbem . On HP-UX 11i v2 (September 2004 or later) (B. 11 .23) WBEM is installed by default.

(Optional) Configure the Central Management Server (CMS) to send SNMP traps to itself.

1. Add the name of the CMS as a trapdest in the file /etc/SnmpAgent.d/snmpd.conf trap-dest: <cms_full_hostname_or_ip_address>

2. Stop the SNMP Master agent and all subagents with the following command:

   /sbin/init.d/SnmpMaster stop

3. Restart the SNMP Master agent and all subagents with the following command:

   /usr/sbin/snmpd

	NOTE: After installation is complete, log out of the operating system and log back in to configure the new parameters to your system environment variables.
