Installing the communication agent on HP-UX and Linux (x86 and x86_64) hosts
NOTE:
If the HP-UX PHKL_40311 cumulative patch is not installed, the following message is displayed:
Please contact HP service to install the "asyncdsk cumulative patch"
to get APEX support for I/Os through HP-UX asyncdsk driver. If you do
not need support for HP-UX asyncdsk driver or you will get this patch
installed later, you can continue with this installation. APEX would
not support I/Os through HP-UX asyncdsk driver without this patch.

1. Transfer the P9000APEX_CA.bin to the HP-UX or Linux host.
