# cd /cdrom/tru64/
2. Run the command ./tru64_local_install.sh –curnode at the command prompt:
#./tru64_local_install.sh –curnode

Starting the CIM Extension Manually
The management server can only obtain information from this host when the CIM Extension is
running.
Keep in mind the following:
• You must have root privileges to run the CIM Extension. The CIM Extension only provides the
information within the privileges of the user account that started the CIM Extension. Only root
has enough privileges to provide the information the management server needs. If you do not
start the CIM Extension with root privileges, the management server will display messages
resembling the following: Data is late or an error occurred.
• To configure UNIX CIM Extensions to run behind a firewall, see ”Configuring UNIX CIM
Extensions to Run Behind Firewalls” on page 250.
To start the CIM Extension, type the following in the /opt/APPQcime/tools directory, where /opt is
the directory into which you installed the CIM Extension:
# ./start
The following is displayed:

The CIM Extension is ready to be contacted by the management server when it displays a message
resembling the following:
Thu Sep 21 14:46:47 EDT xxxx
CXWS x.x.x.x on /192.168.1.5:4673 now accepting connections
where
• xxxx is the year.
• x.x.x.x is the version of CIM Extension
• 192.168.1.5 is the IP address of the host
• 4673 is the port used by the CIM extension
Keep in mind the following:
• Depending on your terminal type and processor speed, the message “CXWS x.x.x.x on
/192.168.1.5:4673 now accepting connections,” may not display all the network interface IPs
on the host. Use the /opt/APPQcime/tools/cxws.out file to view the output from the CIM
Extension.
