Event Monitoring Service Version A.03.10 Release Notes

10 Chapter1

Compatibility Information and Installation Requirements

• Use the Software Management area in SAM

If you have many systems, it may be easier to install over the network

from a central location:

1. Create a network depot according to the instructions in Managing

HP-UX Software with SD-UX.

2. rlogin or telnet to the remote host on which you are installing

EMS.

3. Install over the network from the depot.

Your requests are retained, when monitors are updated, or when you

re-install a monitor on top of an existing monitor. This is part of the

functionality provided by the persistence client.

Removing EMS

To remove EMS, use swremove or the Software Management products

under SAM. Note that the monitors are persistent, that is, they are

always automatically started if they are stopped. Therefore, it is likely

you will have warnings in your removal log ﬁle that say:

Could not shut down process

or errors that say:

File /etc/opt/resomn/lbin/p_client could not be removed.

Even if you see these warnings, monitors are removed and any dirty ﬁles

are cleaned up on reboot.

CAUTION When you remove EMS, all log ﬁles are also removed. If you wish to save

any of the EMS log ﬁles, rename them or store them off before you

remove EMS.
