HP StorageWorks P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.1.1 Installation and Configuration Guide (TB581-96063, September 2011)

If the Device Manager agent (version 4.1- 5.1) was upgraded to 5.5 or later by an overwrite installation
in an environment with the non-global zone specified, then it is installed in the global and non-global
zones. Because the agent is not required for the non-global zone, you can remove it.

Removing agents when using Solaris
If the Device Manager agent (version 4.1- 5.1) was upgraded to 5.5 or later by an overwrite installation
in an environment with the non-global zone specified, it is installed in the global and non-global
zones. Since the agent is not required for the non-global zone, you can remove it.
To remove the Device Manager agent from the non-global zone:
1. Log in to the non-global zone.
2. Execute # pkgrm HDVMAgent

AIX prerequisites
When installing the Device Manager agent on AIX, do not create a symbolic link for the following
directories.
If you created a symbolic link using the directories, do not install the Device Manager agent.
• /usr
• All subdirectories under /usr/HDVM (including /usr/HDVM)
• All subdirectories under /var/HDVM (including /var/HDVM)
• /var
• All subdirectories under /var/HBaseAgent (including /var/HBaseAgent)
• /var/tmp
• When IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition V8 for AIX Runtime version 8.0.0.3 to 8.0.0.5 is applied,
the overwrite installation of the Device Manager agent hangs if either:
• the Dynamic Link Manager installed is version 5.8 through 5.9
• the Device Manager agent installed is version 5.0 - 5.1.03
When you use the Device Manager agent, upgrade IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition V8 for AIX
Runtime to version 8.0.0.6 or later, or apply the APAR IY87291 patch.
Before you install the Device Manager agent in AIX, verify the IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition
V8 for AIX Runtime version by running # lslpp -L xlC.aix50.rte
• AIX includes the Stack Execution Disable (SED) function that protects systems from attacks that use
a buffer overflow. If the SED mode is set to all, change the mode before installing the Device
Manager agent by running # sedmgr -m {select|off|setidfiles}
