Installation Manual

Installing the CIM Extension for HP-UX214
1. Go to the [Installation_Directory]/conf directory.
2. Open the cim.extension.parameters file in a text editor, and enter the following line:
-on 127.0.0.1,192.168.0.1
NOTE: If you want to configure the CIM extension to listen on multiple NICs, use a comma
to separate multiple addresses.
3. Save the file.
4. Restart the CIM extension for your changes to take effect.
NOTE: The CIM extension looks for parameters in the cim.extension.parameters
file whenever it starts, such as when it is started manually or when the host is rebooted.
The -on parameter may include a port specification. In that case, the CIM extension listens on the
indicated port of the indicated NIC, rather than the default port, for example:
-on
192.168.2.2:3456
The CIM extension listens only on the NIC that has the IP address 192.168.2.2 on port 3456.
The management server assumes the CIM extension is running on port 4673.
If you change the port number, you must make the management server aware of the new port
number. See ”Adding a New Port Number to Discovery” on page 213.
Additional Parameters
The following table describes additional parameters that can be specified in the
cim.extension.parameters file:
