Installation Manual

Installing the CIM Extension for NonStop240
IMPORTANT: The Emulex driver does not contain the required library that is required by HP
Storage Essentials. You must install Emulex HBAnywhere software so that HP Storage Essentials can
discover hosts configured with HBAnywhere and hbatest can detect the Emulex host bus adapter.
To run hbatest:
1. Verify that you have installed the CIM extension.
2. Go to the /opt/APPQcime/tools/hbatest directory on the host where you installed the
CIM extension.
3. Enter the following at the command prompt:
./hbatest
The program runs its diagnostics.
Starting the CIM Extension Manually
The management server can obtain information from this host only when the CIM extension is
running.
Keep in mind the following:
1. You must have superuser privileges to run the CIM extension. The CIM extension only provides
the information within the privileges of the user account that started the CIM extension. Only
superuser has enough privileges to provide the information the management server needs.
2. To configure UNIX CIM extensions to run behind a firewall, see ”Configuring UNIX CIM
Extensions to Run Behind Firewalls” on page 389.
To start the CIM extension, enter ./start in the /opt/APPQcime/tools directory.
NOTE: Ensure that you have installed the CIM extension in the /opt directory.
The following message is displayed:
