Installing the OpenView Smart
Plug-In for ASAP
The OpenView Smart Plug-In for ASAP consists of two components:
•
The ASAP OpenView Adapter
•
An ASAP OpenView policy
The Adapter runs on the OpenView server as a standalone process, and the policy is
installed into OpenView itself. Both components must be installed in order for the
Smart Plug-In to function as intended.
System Requirements
Hardware Requirements
The OpenView Smart Plug-In for ASAP runs on the OpenView server, so its hardware
requirements are identical to those of OpenView. To determine what hardware
resources are necessary to run OpenView in your environment, consult the
documentation for your version of OpenView.
Software Requirements
To run the OpenView Smart Plug-In for ASAP, this software must be installed on your
OpenView server:
•
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2003 Server
•
HP OpenView Operations for Windows, version 7.x
•
ASAP Client, any version
•
ASAP Open Enterprise Management Gateway (OEM), any version
In addition, OpenView itself might require additional software components. To
determine if any such requirements exist, see the documentation for your version of
OpenView.
Installation Procedure
The procedure for installing the Smart Plug-In for ASAP on your OpenView server
depends on whether you use automated installation or manual installation. In either
case, the software requirements are the same. So even if you install the Smart Plug-In
using the manual setup, you still must have the ASAP Client, OEM, and other
components installed on the server.
