Installing the CIM Extension for HP Tru64 UNIX158
Software Requirements
NOTE: You do not need to install the FC-HBA shared libraries if you are running Tru64 UNIX
version 5.1B-4.
If you are running Tru64 UNIX version 5.1B-3 or version 5.1B-2, you must install the FC-HBA shared
libraries. Refer to the IT Resource Center Web site at the following URL: http://www1.itrc.hp.com/.
To access the FC-HBA shared libraries on the Web site, select the following in order and then search
by keyword for FC-HBA:
1. maintenance and support for HP products
2. patch/firmware database
3. Tru64 UNIX
Required Disk Space
The CIM Extension for Tru64 requires 60 MB under /opt.
Network Port Must Be Open
The CIM Extension uses port 4673 by default to communicate with the management server. Verify
the network port is open. Refer to the documentation accompanying your Tru64 host for more
information. If you need to use a different port, see ”Permanently Changing the Port a CIM
Extension Uses (UNIX Only)” on page 249.
Verifying SNIA HBA API Support
The management server can only talk to host bus adapters (HBAs) that support the SNIA HBA API.
Tru64 hosts need to have the hbaapi library installed on the host. See ”Software Requirements” on
page 158.
To verify if hbaapi is installed on the host, check for the presence of the file hba.conf under the
/etc directory. The contents of the file would contain a line, such as the following:
com.hp.emulex /usr/shlib/libemxhbaapi.so
Verify the presence of the shared library file mentioned in the hba.conf file.
Installing the CIM Extension
IMPORTANT: You must install the CIM Extension for Tru64 in the default directory.
You can install the CIM Extension for Tru64 one of two ways:
• On a Standalone Host - See ”Installing CIM Extension on a Standalone Host” on page 159.
• On a Cluster - See ”Installing the CIM Extension on a Cluster” on page 159.
