Installing and configuring the software
When you install HP Systems Insight Manager, the following software dependencies are required: SysMgmtDB,
JAVAOOB, and SSH (HP-UX Secure Shell). To best manage your HP SIM Central Management Server (CMS)
install WBEM if it is not already installed. If you downloaded your software from the Web, these dependency
packages are included in the depot file. The installation procedure is described using this depot.
To install HP Systems Insight Manager:
1. Install HP Systems Insight Manager:
swinstall -s /directory/depot –x autoreboot=true HPSIM-HP-UX
where directory is the path to the depot file and depot is the name of the depot file. For example:
swinstall -s /tmp/HPSIM_download.depot –x autoreboot=true HPSIM-HP-UX
Note: All required dependencies are selected automatically for installation.
2. (Optional, required only if you plan to use an Oracle database.) Configure HP SIM to use a newly
created Oracle database using the following command:
/opt/mx/bin/mxoracleconfig
The command executes and asks for user information for the following
host/port/Database/Username/Password/Jar file path with the file name.
mxoracleconfig
Or
mxoracleconfig -h hostname -n portnumber -d databasename -u username \
-p password -j driverjarfilelocation [-f ]
