Assumptions

It is assumed that you have already installed the following software:

• HP Systems Insight Manager

• HP Matrix Operating Environment Management Software CMS

• gWLM agent on your managed nodes

For information about setting up System Insight Manager, see the documentation available at

http://www.hp.com/go/hpsim.

The following steps give an overview of the System Insight Manager installation process. When

you install the Matrix OE Management Software and gWLM, you must do the following:

1. Decide which system will be your central management server (CMS), then install the Matrix

Operating Environment Central Management Server on that system.

This system must also have System Insight Manager installed and running.

2. Initialize the CMS by running the vseinitconfig command.

For more information, see vseinitconfig(1M).

3. Decide which systems will be your managed nodes, then install the gWLM agent software on

those systems. (The agent software is free, but it is functional only for a limited time. For

unlimited use, purchase the agent license to use, or LTU.)

4. On each managed node, start the gWLM agent daemon gwlmagent.

You can perform the last two steps through System Insight Manager, as described in the HP Matrix

Operating Environment Software Installation and Update Guide.
