Installing EMS on HP-UX server(s) (optional)
To install the Event Monitoring Service (EMS) on the HP-UX server:
1. From the HP-UX console, do ONE of the following:
■ Insert the newly created firmware CD in the CD-ROM drive of the server,
mount the CD-ROM, and view the contents of the CD to locate the EMS
for your HP-UX environment.
■ Navigate to the directory on the server in which you copied and unzipped
the firmware files and view the contents of the directory to locate the
EMS for your HP-UX environment.
2. Copy the EMS to the desired location on the server by entering one of the
following copy commands:
When copying from the firmware CD, enter:
# cp -R /cdrom/<ems_directory>/* <target_directory>
When copying from the local directory, enter:
# cp -R /<ems_directory>/* /<target_directory>
Where <ems_directory> is the source location of the EMS and
where
<target_directory> is the target location for the EMS.
Example command, when copying from the firmware CD:
# cp -R /cdrom/ems/ia64/* /var/spool/sw
3. Install the EMS by entering the swinstall command:
# swinstall
4. Repeat these procedures for each HP-UX server that you want to manage
through EMS.
Note: To launch the EMS and use it to monitor your system, see the EMS Hardware
Monitors User Guide, located on the HP web site at
