Pre-Installation Steps
Consult the Release Notes for detailed installation instructions. Before installing the PRM
product:
1. Shut down any versions of PRM, WLM, and GlancePlus that are already installed.
Having these products running can prevent the proper update of files that are in use. Be
sure to shut down WLM (wlmd -k), its configuration wizard, wlmgui, PRM (prmconfig -
r), xprm, and GlancePlus - if any of them are running.
2. Evaluate whether to upgrade any WLM version that is installed (see release notes for
details).
3. Shut down MeasureWare if it is running:
# /sbin/init.d/mwa stop
4. Shut down HP Integrity Virtual Machines if it is running:
# /sbin/init.d/hpvm stop
PRM cannot run on a host used as a VM Host. However, you can use PRM inside virtual
machines.
