Disk and memory requirements

This version of HP-UX WLMTK requires:

  • 3 Mbytes of disk space in /opt/wlm/toolkits/

Memory requirements for the individual toolkits are as follows:

  • ODBTK requires 6 Mbytes of memory

  • ApacheTK requires no more than 1 Mbyte of memory

  • WebLogicTK requires no more than 1 Mbyte of memory

  • SAPTK requires no more than 1 Mbyte of memory

  • DMTK and SASTK require no more than 1 Mbyte of memory (DMTK and SASTK will be deprecated in a future release; a new, improved version of SASTK is pending)

  • SNMPTK requires no more than 1 Mbyte of memory

Installation procedure

WLMTK is installed when you install WLM. To install or update WLMTK separately, run the SD-UX swinstall command. It will invoke a user interface to lead you through the installation.

To install or update HP-UX WLMTK Version A.01.10.xx:

  1. Load product WLMToolkits.

  2. If you are not also installing HP-UX WLM, update the file /etc/MANPATH to include both of the following:

    • /opt/wlm/share/man/%L

    • /opt/wlm/share/man

  3. If you are going to use ODBTK (wlmoradc, smooth) or WebLogicTK (expsmooth), or ApacheTK (wlm_watch.cgi), or SAPTK (wlmsapmap):

    The wlmoradc, smooth, wlm_watch.cgi, expsmooth, and wlmsapmap utilities all require /opt/perl/bin/perl.

    Starting with WLM A.02.02, WLM offers a cntl_smooth configuration file keyword. It is recommended that you use the cntl_smooth WLM keyword instead of the smooth tool and the expsmooth tool. For information on cntl_smooth, see wlmconf(4). If you adopt cntl_smooth and are not using wlmoradc or wlm_watch.cgi, you do not need perl and you can skip the rest of this step.

    If perl is not already installed, you can install it from the quarterly Application Release (AR) CD-ROM, using the following swinstall line:

    # /usr/sbin/swinstall -s depot_path perl

    If you already have perl version 4.0.1.8 (or newer) installed in a location other than /opt/perl/bin/ and you prefer to use your perl, either:

    • Ensure there is a symbolic link from /opt/perl/bin/perl to your perl.

    or

    • Invoke wlmoradc, smooth, expsmooth, and wlmsapmap with your installed perl.

      The following examples illustrate this idea for perl installed in /usr/contrib/ instead of /opt/perl/, with the invocation on the command line:

      # /usr/contrib/bin/perl /opt/wlm/lbin/coll/wlmoradc arguments

      # /usr/contrib/bin/perl /opt/wlm/lbin/coll/smooth arguments

      # /usr/contrib/bin/perl /opt/wlm/lbin/coll/expsmooth arguments

      # /usr/contrib/bin/perl /opt/wlm/toolkits/sap/bin/wlmsapmap
      arguments

      The next examples perform the same functions as the above lines, but with the invocation inside the WLM configuration file using the coll_argv keyword (line breaks are permitted in the configuration file):

      coll_argv = /usr/contrib/bin/perl /opt/wlm/lbin/coll/wlmoradc arguments ;

      coll_argv = /usr/contrib/bin/perl /opt/wlm/lbin/coll/smooth arguments ;

      coll_argv = /usr/contrib/bin/perl /opt/wlm/lbin/coll/expsmooth arguments ;

      procmap = group : /usr/contrib/bin/perl
      /opt/wlm/toolkits/sap/bin/wlmsapmap arguments ...;

      Use the coll_stderr keyword in your WLM configuration to catch perl incompatibilities, toolkit errors, and errors in your data collectors.

The following table indicates where the WLM toolkits are installed:
