HP Storage Essentials SRM 6.0 Installation Guide 29
IMPORTANT: The directory in which you install the management server must have write access
for the local Administrators group. Be aware that installing the management server in a directory
created by another program (for example: the Proliant Support Pack) is not recommended.
3. Read the information on the Welcome screen. Click the hypertext links on the screen to learn
about service packs and other important requirements and click Next when you are ready to
continue.
The System Inspection screen is displayed briefly while the installation wizard checks the system
and the Getting Started screen is displayed giving you an overview of the installation process.
4. Click Next to continue. The Installation Options screen is displayed.
5. Click the Storage Essentials and HP SIM on the same server option.
Choose the installation locations. Installing HP Storage Essentials and HP Systems Insight
Manager on the same server allows you to install all of the software components on one
designated system. The software components include:
– HP Storage Essentials
– HP Systems Insight Manager
– Oracle 10g Standard Edition database
– HP SIM Connector
– CIM Extension Management tool
IMPORTANT: Valid locations must be entered on the Installation Options screen. Path
information can only contain the following characters: A-z, 0-9, hyphen, underscore,
period, back slash. Storage Essentials, HP SIM, and the Oracle database paths cannot
contain spaces. Drive letters must be fixed drives.
Choose the installation directory where you want to install the Oracle database for the Storage
Essentials management server. Choose a drive with enough dedicated disk space for the
Oracle database and its backup files. The disk space requirements are dependent on the size
of the SAN you are managing.
If the system does not meet the disk space requirements for the Oracle database used to store
the management server data, the installation stops and prompts you to allocate the required
disk space.
6. Click Next. The Service Account Credentials screen is displayed. Enter the user name and
password for the HP SIM service account and the Domain name of the domain on which you
are installing Storage Essentials and click Next. Click the Help button for more information
about the service account credentials if needed.
