HP StorageWorks XP Replication Monitor software installation and configuration guide (T1784-96008, November 2006)

Installing XP Replication Monitor software 37
• When the target pair management server uses Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, or Linux as its OS, the user must have
logged in using a user ID in the root.
• The Device Manager agent must already be installed on the pair management server and it must be able to
communicate with the Device Manager server.
• The OS of the target pair management server must be supported (the OSs that the Device Manager agent
and the XP Replication Monitor agent support are different).
• All the preparations described in
2-2-4 must be completed.
Unless otherwise specified, execute all the operations described below at the pair management server where the
XP Replication Monitor agent is installed.
Supplementary explanation:
The XP Replication Monitor agent cannot be registered in the cluster resources because the XP Replication
Monitor agent is not compatible with a logical host. The XP Replication Monitor agent operates on each
physical host (the pair management server) that makes up the cluster, and collects information of each pair
management server.
Although the XP Replication Monitor agent can be installed on servers in a cluster environment, cluster
functionality is not available to the XP Replication Monitor agent.

hrpmAgent_win.exe for Windows
hrpmAgent_sol.tar for Solaris
hrpmAgent_hp.tar for HP-UX
hrpmAgent_aix.tar for AIX
hrpmAgent_linuxx86.tar for Linux(x86)
hrpmAgent_linuxipf.tar for Linux(IPF)
When the OS of the pair management server is Windows use the following procedure to install a XP Replication
