The VSE Management Software relies
on WBEM providers and other agent software installed on the managed
systems. You can install these products on managed systems from the
CMS using the Configure VSE Agents menu. Install HP-UX VSE Agents |  |
Follow the steps in Procedure 3-10 to install
the VSE agents and providers to HP-UX managed systems from the CMS.
This procedure allows you to select the individual agent software
that you want to install. If you prefer to install the agent software
manually, see “Alternate Procedure for Manual Installation of Agent Software”.  |  |  |  |  | IMPORTANT: When you upgrade an
existing version of the gWLM agent, processes placed in a PSET or FSS group by gwlmplace are moved to the default PSET or default FSS
group. You can avoid this behavior by placing applications in workloads
when you define the workloads. For more information, see gwlmplace(1M). |  |  |  |  |
Procedure 3-10 Install HP-UX Managed System Software from the CMS Prerequisite. OpenSSH must be installed on the managed systems
and configured for use by HP SIM. For more information, see “Configure Secure Shell (OpenSSH)”. Select your HP-UX managed systems, then
select Configure Configure
VSE Agents Install HP-UX VSE Agents... from the HP SIM menu. Click Run Now to start the installation. A table of available HP-UX agent software
is displayed, with default selections already applied. You can accept the defaults or modify the selections.
Not all products need to be installed on all systems. For example,
it is not necessary to install the Virtual Machines Provider except
on VM Host servers and virtual machines. However, there is no harm
in installing the agents and providers on managed systems that do
not require them. To select or clear all software choices, check the
box in the table header. To select or clear a specific component,
check the box next to that component.  |  |  |  |  | IMPORTANT: Some of the products available for selection require the managed
system to be rebooted after installation. This is indicated in the Requires Reboot? column. If you select a product that
requires a reboot, the managed system is automatically rebooted when
the software installation completes. The default selections do not
include any software that requires a reboot. |  |  |  |  |
When you have selected the software that you want to
install, click OK. The selected software will
be installed on each of the managed systems that were previously selected.
HP SIM displays the progress and results of the installation in the
Task Results screen. Review the output for error messages before continuing. If any of the selected software requires a reboot
after installation, the managed system is rebooted automatically. Select
the systems that you want to manage with gWLM, and selet Configure Configure VSE Agents Start gWLM Agent... from the
HP SIM menu bar to start the gWLM agent on the selected systems. (Optional) To manage systems with
Application Discovery, you must exchange certificates with the CMS.
You can perform this step now or after installation.is complete. For
instructions for completing this step, see “Complete the Certificate
Exchange for Application Discovery” in the VSE Management Software Version 4.0 Getting Started Guide. Run
the HP SIM discovery process again. This will allow HP SIM to retrieve
additional information about the systems where agent software has
been installed. Select Options Identify Systems... from the
HP SIM menu, then click Run Now.
Install Linux VSE Agents |  |
Follow the steps in Procedure 3-11 to install
the VSE agents and providers to Linux managed systems from the CMS.
This procedure allows you to select the individual agent software
that you want to install. If you prefer to install the agent software
manually, see “Alternate Procedure for Manual Installation of Agent Software”. Procedure 3-11 Install Linux Managed System Software from the CMS Prerequisite. OpenSSH must be installed on the managed systems
and configured for use by HP SIM. For more information, see “Configure Secure Shell (OpenSSH)”. Select your Linux managed systems,
then select Configure Configure
VSE Agents Install Integrity Linux Agents... from the HP SIM menu bar. Click Run Now to start the installation. A table of available Linux agent software
is displayed, with default selections already applied. You can accept the defaults or modify the selections.
To select or clear all software choices, check the box in the table
header. To select or clear a specific component, check the box next
to that component. When you have selected the software that you want to install,
click OK. The selected software is installed
on each of the managed systems that were previously selected. HP SIM
displays the progress and results of the installation in the Task
Results screen. Review the output for error messages before continuing. Run
the HP SIM discovery process again. This allows HP SIM to retrieve
additional information about the systems on which agent software has
been installed. Select Options Identify Systems... from the
HP SIM menu bar, then click Run Now.
Alternate Procedure for Manual Installation of Agent Software |  |
If you do not want to use the procedures described
above, you can selectively install the agents required for managed
systems from the depots and installation packages that are installed
in the depot directory on the CMS with the VSE
Management Software. On an HP-UX CMS, this directory is /var/opt/vse/depot. Use Procedure 3-13 to manually install the agent software. Procedure 3-13 Manual Installation of HP-UX Agents Copy the desired depot files (file.depot) from the depot directory
on the CMS to /var/tmp on the managed system.
Or, if you are using a Software Distributor depot server, copy the
depot files to the depot server. To determine which depots you need,
and which bundles within those depots should be installed, use the swlist command, as shown in Example 3-1. If you
are using a Software Distributor depot server, replace the source
part of the command with the server location of the depot. Example 3-1 List the Bundles in the Utilization Provider Depot # /usr/sbin/swlist -s /var/tmp/up.depot -a software_spec |
Install the desired bundles from the depots using the swinstall command, as shown in Example 3-2. In this
example, UtilProvider is the bundle being installed
from the up.depot file. If you are using a Software
Distributor depot server, replace the source part of the command with
the server location of the depot. Example 3-2 Install the Utilization Provider on an HP-UX System # /usr/sbin/swinstall -s /var/tmp/up.depot UtilProvider
|
Enter the corresponding swinstall command
for each of the depots that you want to install.
Procedure 3-14 Manual Installation of Integrity Linux Agents Copy the desired tar files (file.tar) from the depot directory on
the CMS to /var/tmp on the managed system. Copy the agent installation script install-agent.sh from the CMS to /var/tmp on the managed system.
On an HP-UX CMS, this script is located in /opt/vse/lbin. Install the agent software using the install-agent.sh script, as shown in the following example. Example 3-3 Install the Utilization Provider on a Linux System # cd /var/tmp
# sh install-agent.sh hp-utilprovider.tar
|
Repeat the previous step for each of the agents that you
want to install.
Procedure 3-15 Manual Installation of Windows Agents Copy the desired Windows install files (file.cab) from the depot directory on the CMS to C:\ on the managed
system. Copy the agent installation script install-agent.bat from the CMS to C:\ on the managed system.
On an HP-UX CMS, this script is located in /opt/vse/lbin. Install the agent software using the install-agent.bat script, as shown in the following example. Example 3-4 Install the Utilization Provider on a 32–bit Windows
System C:\> c:
C:\> cd \
C:\> install-agent WMIUtilProvider.cab
|
Repeat the previous step for each of the agents that you
want to install.
