Installing Software from the HP Support Pack

Review the “Product Installation Dependencies” section and ensure that you prepare your system accordingly.

Ensure that you have the latest version of the product as described in “Obtaining the Latest HP Integrity Essentials Foundation Pack for Linux”.

Log in to the system as root.

Mount the media containing the HP Support Pack or identify the directory into which the tar file was unpacked.

Start the installer:

# ./install.sh [-s]

	NOTE: The optional command option, -s , can be used to execute the installation silently.

The following message is displayed:

Welcome to the HP Intergrity Essentials Foundations Pack for Linux version 4.23.

Check ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/linux for software updates [Y/N]?

Select one of the following options:

1. If you want the installer to determine if a newer version of the HP Support Pack is available, enter Y.

   The installer connects to the HP FTP site and performs a comparison between your version and the latest version of the HP Support Pack.

   • If a newer version is not available, the installation of the current version of the HP Support Pack software proceeds.

   • If a newer version is available, a message is shown notifying you that a new version is available. A list of options is displayed. Select the appropriate option.

2. If you do not want the installer to determine if a newer version of the HP Support Pack is available, enter N .

   You have selected not to update your Management CD software at this time. If you would like to update this software in the future, you can obtain the latest version from HP’s support website as follows: For the latest information and downloads go to http://www.hp.com/go/integritylinuxessentials Press <enter> to continue the installation of the current version of the Management CD.

   Press Enter to proceed with the installation of the current version of the HP Support Pack.

You are prompted to make additional selections based on the software update option you selected in the previous step.

After all selections are made, the installer launches and displays the following message:

Launching the version_number installer

The installer analyzes your system and prepares it for installation of the products provided with the HP Support Pack.

	NOTE: If the installer detects missing RPMs that are necessary to the installation, messages are displayed indicating which RPMs you must install before proceeding. For example, messages similar to the following may appear: hpima will not be available because the following required RPMs are missing: net-snmp sensors hpsmh will not be available because the following required RPMs are missing: net-snmp sensors In this case, you would need to install the required RPMs for HP-IMA and HP-SMH before these products can be installed.

A menu of available products and options that can be installed is displayed. The contents of this menu depend upon the version of the HP Support Pack that you are installing. The following is an example of the menu that is shown:

1. Install HP Insight Manager Agents for IA-64 Linux
2. Install HP System Management Homepage for Linux on the Itanium Processor
3. Install nPartition Commands
4. Install The nPartition Management GUI for HP Integrity servers.
5. Install HP WBEM Providers for Linux

9. Install HPVM Guest Kitr for Linux
10. Install The Open64 Compiler Suite v4.2
11. Install everything and exit

What do you want to install?

Enter an option from the menu and press Enter.

	NOTE: There is a known compatibility issue with HP ACU-CLI and RHEL5U1 on HP Integrity servers with a SmartArray controller configured with more than one logical drive. To avoid creating this adverse condition, the installer will not install the HP ACU-CLI (hpacucli) product on these servers and this option is not displayed in the product installation menu. Further, if hpacucli is detected on the system, it is uninstalled by the installer.

After the installation is complete, you must start OpenPegasus to access any providers:

# /etc/init.d/tog-pegasus start
