Manager 7 (IM7) or HP Systems Insight Manager gathers and organizes the raw agent
information from the browser for display in reports, allowing you to monitor system use and
troubleshoot problems.
HP Insight Management Agents are available from the Linux link at
http://www.software.hp.com. For more details on the SNMP protocol, see
http://www.net-snmp.net.
Installing HP Insight Management Agent Packages for SLES 8
1. From the Linux link at http://www.software.hp.com, download the HP Insight
Management Agents for Integrity Servers into the directory of your choice when prompted
by your Internet browser.
2. Login as root on the server where you downloaded the tar package.
3. Untar the binary you obtained from HP:
a. Type tar -xvf hpima1.1*tar and press
Enter.
b. Type cd hpima1.1 and press
Enter.
NOTE If the ucdsnmp packages don’t install, the packages already installed on
your system are a later version than those HP provides. In this case,
remove your current ucdsnmp rpms with the rmp-e command.
If you can’t remove the ucdsnmp rpms, other packages such as kernel-utils,
ethereal, or ethereal-gnome packages, which have dependencies on the
ucdsnmp packages, may be installed on your system. Remove such
packages first, then remove the ucdsnmp packages and replace with the
ucdsnmp packages provided by HP.
Replace kernel-utils, ethereal, and ethereal-gnome packages using Red Hat
installation media or by accessing Red Hat Network.
4. Install the rpm packages in this order:
Type rpm -Uvh ucdsnmp-4.2.5-62.hpimaX01.ia64.rpm and press
Enter.
Type rpm -Uvh hpima-1.0-sles8.ia64.rpm and press
Enter.
