HP StorageWorks Command View SDM Installation and User Guide (T1086-96023, February 2005)

40 Installing Command View SDM
Installing the SAM HostAgent on OpenView SAM
When installing the Command View SDM software in a SAM environment, the
SAM Host Agent must be installed on hosts connected to the arrays that will be
managed. The SAM Host Agent must be installed and running on a host to
allow the SAM management client to detect and manage the array .
1 Launch the SAM GUI.
2 Select Tools > Manage Host Agent > Install Host Agent Software.
Refer to the SAM on-line help for more information on installing the host
agent.
What’s Next?
■ If Command View SDM was installed on a host connected to an array,
refer to "Configuring Command View SDM" on page 50 for additional
configuration information.
■ If Command View SDM was installed on a client, continue with "Setting Up
the Launcher on a Remote Client" on page 40.
Note Two Command View SDM daemons are installed on the client
that are only required on a host connected to the array. They
may be shut down on a client. To shut these daemons down,
refer to "Starting/Stopping HostAgent and OpenDIAL" on
page 55.
Setting Up the Launcher on a Remote Client
After installing Command View SDM on a client management station, you
must identify the host you want the Launcher to connect to. This will be a host
running Command View SDM and connected to the array(s) you want to
manage. The Launcher properties on the client must be modified to identify the
desired host.
Note It is not necessary to perform this procedure if
Command View SDM has been installed on a client being used
for Instant Support Enterprise Edition.
