Installing a management domain involves
installing the central management server (CMS), installing the DTF
and WBEM agent software on the managed nodes, and adding the managed
nodes to the CMS. Figure 2-1 “SCM Install Process”
presents a flow diagram
of the install process.
Accessing the software
Servicecontrol Manager is available on the Web
and with the HP-UX application releases.
Estimated installation time
The time it takes to
install an SCM management domain will depend on the performance
and load of the target systems during the install process and on
your familiarity with the execution process. It will also depend
on the size of the management domain that you are installing. Adding
managed nodes with the add_nodes script can significantly reduce the installation
time if you are installing a large management domain. The add_nodes script is discussed in the section “Adding Managed Nodes”.
