1.
Install HP SIM on each node in parallel.
2.
Download the binary distribution under /tmp, and then execute the following steps.
3.
Run the regular installation steps as described on the
HP SIM website.
4.
To in
stall HP SIM with its d
atabase, execute the following command:
# cd /tmp
# ./HPSIM
-
Linux*.bin
5.
The
HPSIM
-
Linux*.bin
file extracts the RPM Package Manager (RPM) files, installs PostgreSQL
based database
s
erver, and then continues with t
he HP SIM installation.
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
