System Management Homepage 6.2 Installation and Configuration Guide

3. Install software from the Applications DVD useing the swinstall.
The following example uses swinstall to install software from the source mounted at /cdrom:
/usr/sbin/swinstall -s /cdrom bundlename
See the swinstall (1M) manpage for details.
4. Select and install software from the Applications DVD.
The swinstall program has an interface for selecting and installing software from the DVD.
5. Unmount and eject the Applications DVD.
You must unmount the DVD before you can eject it from the DVD-ROM drive. The DVD automatically
unmounts whenever the server reboots.
Use the umount command to unmount the DVD. For example, umount /cdrom unmounts the /cdrom
file system. See the umount (1M) manpage for details.
6. Start using HP SMH.
Installing using HP SMH Software Depot
1. Go to the Software Depot Home at http://www.hp.com/go/softwaredepot.
2. Find the product that you want to download. Each product has a web page with information and
download links.
3. Click the Receive link.
4. Complete the registration form.
5. Review any installation instructions.
6. Save the bundle to a local directory such as /var/temp.
7. Install the product to your system:
swinstall -s /var/temp/ depot_filename.depot bundlename
For example: swinstall -s \
/var/temp/SysMgmtHomepage_A2214_HP-UX_B.11.23_IA+PA.depot SysMgmtWeb
8. Start using HP SMH.
NOTE: When HP SMH is installed, the user hpsmh and group hpsmh is automatically added to the
/etc/passwd file. If you are using LDAP or any other network service to manage user and group accounts,
there might be a possibility that the user ID (UID) and the group ID (GID) is already in use by the LDAP users,
which can be confusing. The problem occurs in HP-UX 11i v3 on Integrity systems.
To overcome this, add a local hpsmh user and group using a unique UID and GID (IDs not in use by LDAP
or the other network services) manually before installing the HP SMH.
1. Determine the available reserved IDs for the group (for example, 130) and the user (for example, 125).
2. Add the group using the command /usr/sbin/groupadd -g 130 hpsmh.
3. Add the user using the command /usr/sbin/useradd -u 125 -g hpsmh -d/var/opt/hpsmh
\ -c "System Management Homepage" hpsmh.
4. Add the group using the command /usr/sbin/groupadd -g 130 hpsmh.
5. Add the user using the command /usr/sbin/useradd -u 125 -g hpsmh -d /var/opt/hpsmh
\ -c "System Management Homepage" hpsmh.
Configuring HP SMH
The HP SMH configuration is based on environment variables and tags that are set by the following files:
• /opt/hpsmh/lbin/envvars
• /opt/hpsmh/conf.common/smhpd.xml
• /opt/hpsmh/conf/timeout.conf
• CLI smhconfig tool located at /opt/hpsmh/bin
