HP Insight Management 7.3 Installation and Upgrade Release Notes

Installation notes
The following list contains general notes that apply to a new installation of Insight Management.
Read these notes before you begin an installation.
• The Insight Management Advisor password expiration check may fail displaying the following
error message: A system error occurred calling NetUserGetInfo due to the fact that the
workstation service and/or the server service failed to restart on the Windows domain controller
server.
Suggested action: Ensure that the Workstation and the Server services are running on the
domain controller server for the domain to which the CMS belongs.
• The packaging for Insight Control server deployment is changed.
To install Insight Control server deployment:
1. Download the Icdepl-7.2.2.x.zip package.
2. After extracting, you receive a .exe and .sig files.
3. Double click ICdepl-7.2.2.x.exe, and proceed with the installation.
NOTE: The latest version of HP Insight Control server deployment Installation Guide is
available on the web. The version that is shipped in the installation kit is not the latest.
• The Insight Management Installer cannot run from a mapped drive if the server is running a
Windows Server 2003 OS.
This issue occurs when the Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) enhanced security feature is enabled,
which is the default setting for Windows Server 2003-based computers. This enhanced level
of security might prevent certain web sites from appearing as expected in IE because scripts,
ActiveX Controls, and downloads are disabled.
Suggested action: To resolve this issue, turn off the IE Enhanced Security Configuration before
starting the installation.
WARNING! If you turn off enhanced security, you might expose your server to potential
security attacks. HP recommends that you use a limited user account instead of an administrator
account for general web browsing. Use the Group Policy feature to keep unauthorized users
from making inappropriate changes to browser security settings.
• Microsoft .NET 4.0 Framework can be installed and present on the CMS, but it cannot be set
as the default. The entire .NET package needs to be installed, otherwise the SQL server
installation fails.
• On rare occasions, it is possible for individual component installations to not be able to
continue (the component installation fails to complete) due to a timing issue in the startup of
the HP SIM service.
Suggested action: If this situation occurs, rerun the Insight Management Installer to complete
the installation of the components that were not installed.
Post installation notes
This section contains information that is important to note after an Insight Management installation.
Patch required for proper management of Microsoft Windows Server 2008 with
Hyper-V systems
A patch from Microsoft is required for managing Microsoft Windows Server 2008 with Hyper-V
systems. Patches are installed on the Hyper-V hosts. After you have installed the patch, you must
install or update Hyper-V Integration Services from the updated host to each VM guest. Do this as
a precaution because not all patches affect Integration Services on the guests.
