Pre-Configuring and Installing Tru64 UNIX Clients
You can place a customized software package on a designated Tru64 UNIX server to host
the HP ISEE software and options for HP ISEE Monitored Clients. The software
package contains your configured/customized settings. These settings are then used
during the Monitored Client installation.
Selecting a Host for Your HP ISEE Customized Software Package
Verify that the system you select to host your software package meets the following
prerequisites:
• 20 MB available disk space to host and set up the package
• An additional 20 MB is needed if the server hosting the software package will also be
used as an HP ISEE Monitored Client
• Network accessible from target Monitored Clients to the systems on which you
install HP ISEE
After selecting the Tru64 UNIX server, create the customized software package(s). For
each customized software package created, an HP ISEE contact person must be specified
and the associated server information provided.
Creating a Customized Software Package
To use your existing distribution system with HP ISEE, you must install the HP ISEE
Client software package on your system and configure the software package. This will be
your software source for subsequent HP ISEE Monitored Client installations.
NOTE You can create more than one customized HP ISEE software package on one or more
servers to install your HP ISEE Monitored Clients. A hosting server can also function as
Monitored Client.
A different customized package is required for each country containing ISEE Monitored
Clients for HP ISEE support.
To configure a software package on the hosting system, complete the following steps:
1. Create a new directory and save the ISEEPlatform_Tru64.tar file in it:
mkdir /tmp/ISEEDownload
2. Change the directory to the newly created directory:
cd /tmp/ISEEDownload
3. Unpack the ISEEPlatform_Tru64.tar file in the /tmp/ISEEDownload directory on
the Client system:
tar -xf ISEEPlatform_Tru64.tar
4. Rename the file ISEEPlatform_Tru64.tar to ISEEPlatform.tar:
mv ISEEPlatform_Tru64.tar ISEEPlatform.tar
