NOTE: To install Systems Insight Manager on a system without OpenSSH or with a purchased

version of SSH, use the --nodeps option on rpm.

For example, rpm --nodeps -ivh followed by the rpm files.

5. Install Systems Insight Manager using the .rpm files:

rpm -Uvh hpsim*

NOTE: The initialization of the upgrade is done in the background, which takes several minutes. To

verify if the upgrade is 100% complete, view the file by executing the following command:

cat /var/opt/mx/logs/initconfig.log

NOTE: If PostgreSQL is used by Systems Insight Manager and hpsmdb is installed successfully, the

Systems Insight Manager upgrade process automatically migrates the Systems Insight Manager data

from PostgreSQL to hpsmdb. If hpsmdb cannot be installed successfully, the upgraded Systems Insight

Manager continues to use PostgreSQL.

http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.html.

d. Copy the JDBC driver file (ojdbc14.jar) to the [installdir]/lib and
