Installation Manual

Installing the CIM Extension for HP Tru64 UNIX268
Finding the Version of a CIM Extension
You can find the version number of a CIM extension:
1. Go to the /opt/APPQcime/tools directory.
2. Enter the following at the command prompt:
# ./start -version
The version number of the CIM extension and the date it was built are displayed, as shown in the
following example:
Starting CIM Extension for Tru64

CXWS x.x.x.x on /192.168.1.5:4673 now accepting connections
where
• xxxx is the year.
• x.x.x.x is the version of CIM extension
• 192.168.1.5 is the IP address of the host
• 4673 is the port used by the CIM extension
Stopping the CIM Extension
To stop the CIM extension, enter the following at the command prompt in the
/opt/APPQcime/tools directory, where /opt is the directory into which you installed the CIM
extension:
# ./stop
Keep in mind the following:
• You must have root privileges to stop the CIM extension.
• When you stop the CIM extension, the management server is unable to gather information
about this host.
Rolling Over the Logs
The logging information for the CIM extension is contained primarily in the cxws.log file, created
by default in the <Installation_directory>/tools directory. The cxws.log file rolls over
once it becomes more than 100 MB. The information in cxws.log is moved to cxws.log.1.
When the logs roll over again, cxws.log.1 is renamed to cxws.log.2 and the information that
is in cxws.log is moved to cxws.log.1. The numbering for the files continues sequentially, with
there being a maximum of three backup logs, as follows:
• cxws.log - contains the latest logging information
• cxws.log.1 - contains logging information that was previously in cxws.log
• cxws.log.2 - contains logging information that was previously in cxws.log.1
cxws.log.3 - contains logging information that was previously in cxws.log.2
