Installation
the computer name. Registration using the cluster alias provides high availability and
eliminates the duplicate reporting of storage data. In the event of a node failure on the
cluster, the SRM Agent will automatically failover and execute on another node.
NOTE: SRM provides UNIX Agents for IBM AIX, Sun Solaris, Hewlett-Packard HP-UX,
Compaq Tru64 UNIX, and a Linux Agent for Red Hat Linux.
To install the SRM for UNIX or Linux Agent:
1. Insert the SRM CD into a system from which you can make the installation files
available to all target systems.
2. Transfer the installsrm and appropriate .Z files to each target system.
NOTE: UNIX agent files are in the unix_agents directory. Linux agent files are in the
linux_agents directory.
3. Use chmod to make the installsrm script executable.
4. Type .
/installsrm to start the installation.
The product files will be extracted into the directory from which installsrm is
executed. To install the agent into a different location, copy installsrm and the
appropriate .Z file to the new location and type ./installsrm.
Before any files are extracted, the installsrm script will ask the user to confirm that
the files should be installed in the current working directory location.
These are the scripts:
/installdirectory/srmagent/srmagent Agent executable
/installdirectory/srmagent/removesrm Agent uninstallation script
/installdirectory/srmagent/revertsrm Script to revert Agent to earlier version
/installdirectory/srmagent/registersrm Script to register/unregister Agent with SRM
Server or to change existing registration
NOTE: installdirectory is the name of the directory where you placed the SRM Agent kit.
Watch for the port confirmation request.
After installsrm puts the files in place, it invokes the registersrm script. If
registersrm detects no previous Agent version, it enters into a dialog to determine
what port the Agent will listen on. It tries these ports:
11125, 11126, 11127
5. If one of these ports is found, registersrm requests confirmation:
I am proposing to use port number as the agent listening address. Is this OK? (y/n)
