Linux CMS
Setting up managed systems from a Linux CMS
Use the following checklist as a guideline to assist you with setting up managed systems from a Linux Central
Management Server (CMS):
1. Ensure that HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) is installed on the CMS.
2. Ensure the First Time Wizard has been completed on the CMS. See “Using the First Time Wizard” for
more information.
Important: Discovery must be run before setting up managed systems. See “Running a discovery task”
for more information. Configuring automatic discovery is part of the First Time Wizard.
3. Install the ProLiant or Integrity Support Pack on the Central Management Server. See Installing the
ProLiant or Integrity Support Pack on a Linux system for the first time.
4. Configure the managed system software. See Configuring the managed system software.
Installing the ProLiant or Integrity Support Pack on a Linux system for the first time
For Linux systems, use the Linux Deployment Utility to install the latest support pack with the preconfigured
components to the local system. For more information regarding installing a support pack using the Linux
Deployment Utility, see http://www.hp.com/servers/psp.
