HP StorageWorks mpx Manager for Linux
This section describes how to install HP StorageWorks mpx Manager on a Linux server.
NOTE:
In the following procedure, replace n.n.nn and n.nnbnn with file names (for example, 2.0.65 and
2.65b85).
1. Download the hpmpx_n.n.nn_linux_install.tar.gz file from http://
h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/evaiscsiconnect/. The .gz file contains the
GUI.bin file and a GUI install README file.
2. Unpack the file to a temporary directory. For example:
tar -zxvf hpmpx_n.n.nn_linux_install.tar.gz
3. Issue the following command to start the install:
./hpmpxn.n.nnbnn_linux_install.bin.
A chmod may be necessary prior to execution.
4. Follow the installation instructions on the screen and note the installation location. The default
directory is /opt/Hewlett-Packard/mpxManager.
Connecting the mpx100/100b to AC power
To power up the mpx100/100b, connect the power cord to the power receptacle on the
mpx100/100b chassis and to a grounded AC outlet. The mpx100/100b responds in the following
sequence:
1. The chassis LEDs (Input Power, Heartbeat, System Fault) illuminate, followed by all port LEDs.
2. After a couple of seconds, the Heartbeat and System Fault LEDs are extinguished, while the Input
Power LED remains illuminated. The mpx100/100b is executing the POST.
3. After approximately 45 seconds, the POST is complete and the Heartbeat LED starts flashing at
a one-second rate. Any other blink pattern indicates an error has occurred. See the “Heartbeat
LED blink patterns” on page 174 for more information about error blink patterns.
