4. Click Remove Host.
HP XP7 Performance Advisor deletes the host agent record and logs a confirmation on the
Event Log screen.
When you remove a host agent, the data about the command devices that are exposed to its host
and the following data for the XP and XP7 disk arrays are also removed. You should initiate a new
configuration collection on the XP and XP7 disk arrays and also create, or configure the following
parameters again. For more information, see HP XP7 Performance Advisor Software User Guide:
• Configuration data
• Performance schedules
• Report schedules
• Alarm configuration data
• Custom groups
Why am I not able to install the latest version of HP XP7 Performance Advisor after removing the
existing version?
It can be due to traces of the existing version still remaining on the management station. Refer to
in the Troubleshooting section for the procedures on how to remove the existing versions completely
and restart the installations.
Why is UNIX host agent installing failing with JAVA not found error?
While installing a HP XP7 Performance Advisor UNIX host agent, the installation might fail displaying
the following error:
JAVA not found
The reason might be that the Path system variable on your host is not pointing to the location
where JRE is installed.
Complete the following steps to configure the Path system variable environment variable on your
host must point to the installed JRE location. To set the Java PATH, enter the following command
in the command prompt window:
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/java1.5/bin
You can verify whether the Path variable is updated by typing echo %path% in the command
prompt window. The output lists the paths that are set on your management station, and should
include %JAVA_HOME%\bin.

I have a management station, where I have installed the HP XP7 Performance Advisor application

location to another drive location on the same management station?

same management station without interrupting the current setup of HP XP7 Performance Advisor.
However, if you are using a pre-v3.5 version, it is still possible to move the database from one
drive location to another on the same management station.
To move an Oracle database from one drive location to another, following is the suggested
workaround:
