B–2 HSG80 ACS Solution Software Version 8.6 for IBM AIX Installation and Configuration Guide
Before You Install the Client
1. Verify you are logged into an account that is a member of the administrator group.
2. Check the software product description that came with the software for a list of
supported hardware.
3. Verify that you have the SNMP service installed on the computer. SNMP must be
installed on the computer for this software to work properly. The Client software uses
SNMP to receive traps from the Agent. The SNMP service is available on the
Windows NT or Windows 2000 installation CD-ROM. To verify that you have the
SNMP service:
❏ For Windows NT, double-click Services in Start > Settings > Control Panel. The
entry for SNMP is shown in this window. If you install the SNMP service and you
already have Windows NT Service Pack 6A on the computer, reinstall the service
pack after installing the SNMP service.
❏ For Windows 2000, click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools >
Component Services. The entry for SNMP is shown in the Component Services
window.
4. Read the release notes.
5. Read "Troubleshooting the Client Installation" in this appendix.
6. If you have the Command Console Client open, exit the Command Console Client.
7. If you have Command Console Client version 1.1b or earlier, remove the program with
the Windows Add/Remove Programs utility.
8. If you have a previous version of Command Console, you can save the Navigation Tree
configuration by copying the SWCC2.MDB file to another directory. After you have
installed the product, move SWCC2.MDB to the directory to which you installed
SWCC.
9. Install the HS-Series Agent. For more information, see Chapter 4.
Installing the Client
1. Insert the CD-ROM into a computer running Windows 2000 with Service Pack 1 or
Windows NT 4.0 (Intel) with Service Pack 6A.
2. Using Microsoft Windows Explorer, navigate to:
\swcc\client\intel
Double click SETUP.EXE
