HP-UX Software Assistant Administration Guide (5900-3003, March 2013)

SWA will be available within HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) if you install SWA while HP
SIM is running.
If SWA is installed before HP SIM is initially configured via mxinitconfig, SWA will automatically
be included for use within HP SIM. See mxinitconfig(1M) for more information.
If you install SWA when HP SIM is installed but not running, you must run the
/opt/swa/lbin/configHPSIM script once HP SIM is running again to configure HP SIM for
SWA.
The following error indicates HP SIM is not properly configured to run SWA. Use the information
outlined above to determine whether to run mxinitconfig or configHPSIM.
NOTE: Cannot configure HP SIM. Add SWA to HP SIM by running mxinitconfig
(1M) or /opt/swa/lbin/configHPSIM
NOTE: HP SIM servers might require significant space in /var/opt/swa/HPSIM to support
client systems' analysis, catalog, inventory, and report files. You should consider the number of
client systems you intend to support and adjust file system sizes accordingly.
