Removing agents when using Solaris 10

If the Device Manager agent (version 4.1- 5.1) was upgraded to 5.5 or later in an environment with

the non-global zone specified, it is installed in the global and non-global zones. Because the agent

is not required for the non-global zone, you can remove it.

1. Log in to the non-global zone.

2. Execute # pkgrm HDVMAgent

Host prerequisites for AIX

Do not install Device Manager agents in AIX environments when symbolic links exist for the following

directories:

• /usr

• /usr/HDVM and its subdirectories

• /var/HDVM and its subdirectories

• /var

• /var/HBaseAgent and its subdirectories

• /var/tmp

When IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition V8 for AIX Runtime version 8.0.0.3 to 8.0.0.5 is applied,

the overwrite installation of the Device Manager agent hangs if either:

• the Hitachi Dynamic Link Manager installed is version 5.8 through 5.9

• the Device Manager agent installed is version 5.0 through 5.1.03

When you use the Device Manager agent, upgrade IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition V8 for AIX

Runtime to version 8.0.0.6 or later, or apply the APAR IY87291 patch.

Before you install the Device Manager agent in AIX, verify the IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition V8

for AIX Runtime version by running # lslpp -L xlC.aix50.rte

• AIX includes the Stack Execution Disable (SED) function that protects systems from attacks that use

a buffer overflow. If the SED mode is set to all, change the mode before installing the Device

Manager agent by running # sedmgr -m {select|off|setidfiles}

NOTE:

To return the SED mode to all after installing the Device Manager agent, exclude the Java process

used by the Device Manager agent from the SED protection targets. For details, see the
