1. Understand the basic managed system software for HP-UX.
For HP-UX, the following software, shown with minimum recommended versions, is required
for essential HP SIM functionality to operate. This software is installed by default as part of
the latest HP-UX 11i v2 operating environments, but you might have to install or update it on
HP-UX 11i v1 or older HP-UX 11i v2 environments.
• T1471AA HP-UX Secure Shell
• B8465BA HP WBEM Services for HP-UX
The iCAP properties for cells and processors for a complex is collected and displayed, using
HP-UX WBEM. For HP-UX, the following software is required for essential HP SIM functionality
to operate. This software is installed by default as part of the latest HP-UX 11i v3 (11.31), HP-
UX 11i v2 (11.23), which can be installed on HP 9000 or HP Integrity servers, and HP-UX
11i v1 (11.11), which can only be installed on HP 9000 servers.
• B9073BA version 08.01.01 iCAP for HP-UX

For the latest WBEM Services bundle, go to http://www.hp.com/go/hpsim/providers.
2. Ensure the managed system software is installed.
To verify that the minimum required software is installed, log in to the remote system, and run
the following command:
$ swlist –l bundle T1471AA B8465BA OpenSSL
To verify that the optional providers and HP System Management Homepage are installed,
run commands such as:
$ swlist –l bundle LVMProvider WBEMP-LAN-00 SysMgmtWeb SysFaultMgmt
OnlineDiag
3. Acquire and install the managed system software if not previously installed.
The SSH and WBEM bundles are included on the HP-UX Operating Environment and
Application Release media, as well as part of the HP SIM HP-UX depot downloaded from
http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/hpsim/dl_hpux.html.
For the WBEM providers, see http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/
hpsim/dl_hpux.html .
After you have obtained the depots containing the software, you can install then from the
managed system:
$ swinstall –s <depot_location> OpenSSL
NOTE: B8465BA and B9073BA version 08.01.01 depends on OpenSSL, so you must install
OpenSSL first.
$ swinstall –s <depot_location> T1471AA
$ swinstall –s <depot_location> B8465BA
$ swinstall –s <depot_location> <names of WBEM providers being
installed>
