5. Initialize and configure HP SIM by executing the following command:
#/opt/mx/bin/mxinitconfig -a
NOTE: The initialization is done in the background and takes several minutes.
6. Verify that the mxdomainmgr, mxdtf, and mxinventory daemons are running. Mxinventory is an
HP SIM database process. If mxinventory is not running, you cannot browse to HP SIM. Verify
these processes are running by executing the following command:
#ps -ef | grep mx
Change the SIM_MANAGER Password (Optional)
The information HP SE and HP SIM share is stored in a database with the user name
SIM_MANAGER and the default password quake. For security reasons, it is strongly recommended
you change the password for this database.
NOTE: This step only applies if HP SE and HP SIM are installed on the same server.
Make sure you keep the new password for SIM_MANAGER in a safe location, as it is your
responsibility to remember the Oracle passwords.
The management server requires the password to have the following characteristics:
• a minimum of three characters
• starts with a letter
• contains only letters, numbers and underscores (_)
• does not start or end with an underscore (_)
To change the password for SIM_MANAGER:
1. Log onto the server running HP SIM
• Start the HP SIM service if it is not already started.
Verify that the mxdomainmgr and mxdtf daemons are running by executing the following
command:
# ps -ef | grep mx
If necessary, start the HP Systems Insight Manager service:
# /opt/mx/bin/mxstart
2. Stop the appstormanager service, if it is started:
/etc/init.d/appstormanager stop
