2.2.1.1 Presence of Some Insight Management Agents Kits May Require Additional Steps
The following installation-related release notes pertain to the Insight Management Agents. See
the section “Insight Manager Components Dump Core” (page 43) for information about a
potential problem with Insight Management Agents that can occur after Version 5.1B-4 is installed.

2.2.1.1.2 Some Insight Management Agents Kits May Prevent V5.1B-4 Installation (revised)
Under certain conditions, you will be prevented from installing Version 5.1B-4 if you are running
HP Insight Management Agents Version 3.1 or higher or had a version of the kit previously
installed. Those conditions are as follows:
• Your system contains a pre-Version 5.1B-4 kit and the Insight Management Agents kit.
In this case, upgrading to this kit gives the following error message:
Patch 26020.00 - SP04 OSFCLINET540 (SSRT3653 SSRT2384 SSRT2275 ...)
./sbin/init.d/snmpd: its origin can not be identified.
This patch will not be installed.
• Your system contains Patch Kit 2, Patch Kit 3, or Patch Kit 4 and the Insight Management
Agents kit was once installed but has since been removed.
In this case, upgrading to Version 5.1B-4 gives the following error message:
Patch 26020.00 - SP04 OSFCLINET540 (SSRT3653 SSRT2384 SSRT2275...)
./etc/pmgrd_iorate.config: does not exist on your system,
however, it is in the inventory of installed subsets.
This patch will not be installed.
To work around this problem you will need to run the dupatch baseline process before installing
Version 5.1B-4. The following steps will guide you through the process:
1. Make a backup copy of the /sbin/init.d/snmpd script. For example:
# cp /sbin/init.d/snmpd /tmp
An alternative to backing up this file in which you manually modify it is provided following
step 7.
2. Run the Version 5.1B-4 dupatch utility and select Option 5, Patch Baseline
Analysis/Adjustment. See the Patch Kit Installation Instructions for detailed instructions.
