4-2-1-3 Checking other programs related to security
• Check whether the following programs are installed. If they are installed, take action by
following the explanation below:
○ A program that monitors security
Stop the program that monitors security, or change its settings so that Device Manager can
be installed normally.
○ A program that detects viruses
We recommend that you stop programs that detect viruses, and then install Device
Manager.
If a program that detects viruses is running during installation of Device Manager, the
speed of installation might be reduced, installation might fail, or installation might finish in
an incorrect state.
○ A program that monitors processes
Stop the program that monitors processes, or change its settings so that the program does
not monitor the processes of the Device Manager server and Common Component.
If a program that monitors processes starts or stops the above processes during installation
of Device Manager, installation might fail.
4-2-1-4 Checking other programs
• When using another XP Command View AE Suite product, make sure that you back up the
database for the relevant product.
• When Common Component has been installed, HiRDB is installed as the database
management system. As a result, the Device Manager server will not be able to operate
together with the HiRDB products listed below. If any of these HiRDB products has been
installed on a machine, do not install the Device Manager on the same machine. Also, do not
install these HiRDB products on a machine on which the Device Manager server has been
installed.
○ HiRDB/Single Server
○ HiRDB/Parallel Server
○ HiRDB/Workgroup Server
○ HiRDB/Run Time
○ HiRDB/Developer's Kit
○ HiRDB SQL Executer
4-2-1-5 Checking other information
• You must log in as a root user.
• You must revise the Linux OS parameters (kernel parameters and shell restrictions). To
change the kernel parameters to the appropriate values, see section
4-7 for Linux. If the kernel
parameter setting is not correct, installation will fail.
• Verify that the following directories can be created or that they have already been created and
are write-enabled. (The following directories are examples, and apply when the Device
Manager server and Common Component are installed in the default directories.)
○ /etc/init.d
○ /opt/CVXPAE
○ /opt/hitachi
○ /var/opt/CVXPAE
○ /var/opt/hitachi/HNTRLib2
