OVNM 5.3 - Operations Agent for NonStop Installation Guide

Installing OVNM on HPOM UNIX 51

5-2-2 OVNM Installation

Getting Started

1. Logon to the HP Operations Management Server as root user and switch to the directory where the Depot

tar file was FTPed.

# cd /var/spool/sw

2. Extract the resulting tar file.

#tar –xvf depot.tar

NOTE:

If OVO (VPO) Server being used supports Japanese language support, OVNM configuration file

“

ovnm-cfg.idx” needs to be modified.

To configure OVNM for the Japanese environment edit:

/OVNM

-HPUX/OVNM-CONF-FILES/var/opt/OV/share/tmp/OpC_appl/ovnm/conf/C/ovnm-

cfg.idx

Locate and change

HARACTER_SET ISO88591

CHARACTER_SET SJIS

3. Next, register the temporary path as a depot path.

# swreg -l depot /var/spool/sw

4. By default the OVNM SPI components are installed in the /opt/OV/ directory.

There may be times when a different installation directory is desired, for example when installing OVNM

on an HP UX cluster, the OVNM SPI components should be installed in the OV share directory:

/var/opt/OV/share. Refer to Appendix E: HP MC/SG Cluster Installation Supplement for more information.

To change the directory where OVNM is to be installed, execute the following script before performing the

installation procedure.

# /var/spool/sw/custom_install.sh

Non-Interactive Installation

Start the non-interactive installation process using the following command.

# swinstall -s <OVNM-DEPOT-LOCATION> OVNM

For example: # swinstall -s /var/spool/sw OVNM

The installation completes with the display of messages.

NOTE: Before continuing, verify that the

swinstall

completed successfully.

Please refer to Appendix C: Sample Installation Session on HPOM HP-UX for sample sessions.
