Virtual Array Installation Guide 43
Installation Steps
1 Log on as root or superuser.
2 Create a directory for the software. For example:
mkdir /tmp/cmdview
3 Insert the CommandView SDM software CD into the CD-ROM drive.
4 If necessary mount the CD device file. For example:
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
5 Copy the contents of the CD (or download from the web) into the directory
created in step 3. For example:
cp -pr /mnt/cdrom/linux /tmp/cmdview
6 Change directories to the /linux install directory by entering:
cd /tmp/cmdview/linux
7 Install the software by entering:
install_cmdview -server
The installation will take several minutes.
Note The Host Agent installer writes a log file to
/tmp/SanMgrInstall.log
The CommandView SDM installer writes a log file to
/tmp/CommandViewInstall.log
8 For convenience you may want to add the following line to your path
variable:
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/sanmgr/commandview/client/sbin
Log out, then log back in to reset the path.
This completes the installation of the HP CommandView SDM software. See the
HP StorageWorks
CommandView SDM Installation and User Guide
for
information on configuring and using the management software.
