4. Ensure that the Execute Objects Within Folder permission is selected.
5. Select Users & Groups from the Navigation panel.
6. Select the IO user for SA (typically hpiosa).
7. Click Edit in the upper right corner.
8. Select the Client Features tab.
9. Scroll to the section OS Build Plan Management.
10. Set the radio button Manage OS Build Plan to Read.
11. Set the radio button Allow Execute OS Build Plan to Yes.
12. Click Save at the top of the page.
To make the OS Build Plan available for infrastructure users (for example: hpiosa), create the
following custom attributes on each of the OS Build Plans:
1. Set OSType to any one of the following values:
Windows Server 2003
Windows Server 2003 x64
Windows Server 2008
Windows Server 2008 x64
Windows Server 2008 R2 x64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5 X86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 6
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 6 X86_64
2. Set archType to one of the following values:
x86 (for 32-bit systems)
x64 (for 64-bit systems)
See the Application Automation section in the HP Server Automation User Guide for more information
about creating custom attributes.
Communication between infrastructure orchestration and SA is done through the SA core. The core
then directs the satellite(s) to deploy software. This occurs automatically, and requires only that a
network is selected that has been configured to use SA.
To configure a network to use an SA deployment server:
1. From the infrastructure orchestration console, select the Networks tab.
2. Select a network from the list, and click Edit.
3. From the Deployment Server list, select an SA satellite (for example, 10.0.0.10 (SA).)
4. In Boot Network, select Yes, and save the configuration.
5. In infrastructure orchestration designer, create or edit a template, and edit the network
configuration to select the network from step 2.
Default memory setting
The default minimum memory setting for templates that use the SA server to deploy software is 512
MB. This value can be changed in the ..\Program Files\HP\Matrix infrastructure
orchestration\conf\hpio.properties file. Search for the following lines:
# Template Config minimum MB "Memory size:" for SA agent install
sa.minimum.memory=512
Configuring an environment for virtual provisioning
Virtual provisioning requires a correctly configured and licensed virtual machine host that is
discovered and visible in Systems Insight Manager. Run either ESX or Hyper-V on the virtual machine
host. You can also manage Integrity VM using infrastructure orchestration (see “Setting up an
Integrity virtual machine network” (page 39)).
