Event Information Tools: IPMI Event Viewer Graphical User Interface (GUI)

based Web Server. Follow the instructions provided by HP Software Depot for completing the

installation.

To start Apache automatically at bootup, you will need to edit /etc/rc.config.d/hpws_apacheconf to specify

"HPWS_APACHE_START=1".

Configuring the Apache Web Server

Versions of the SMS that include the event viewer GUI also include a pre-installed Apache configuration file for

running the GUI. This default configuration file tells Apache to only listen to port 80 on the 127.0.0.1 loopback

interface, defines the http://127.0.0.1/sl/sl.cgi URL, and disables functionality that is not required to run the

event viewer GUI.

Alternatively you can create a custom configuration file as described below.

Configuring Apache on the Windows SMS

The default configuration file is installed at C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\conf\httpd.conf. If

you would like to use your own custom configuration file instead, the recommend and required changes

are:

recommended: Listen 127.0.0.1:80

recommended: ServerName 127.0.0.1:80

required: ScriptAlias /sl/sl.cgi "C:/Program Files/Hewlett-

Packard/EIT/opt/bin/slview.exe"

Configuring Apache on the HP-UX SMS

The default configuration file is installed at /opt/hpws/apache/conf/httpd.conf. If you would like to use

your own custom configuration file instead, the recommend and required changes are:

recommended: Listen 127.0.0.1:80

recommended: ServerName 127.0.0.1:80

required: ScriptAlias /sl/sl.cgi /opt/smstools/bin/slview

Starting the SMS Web Server

Once the Apache web server software is installed and configured (with the recommended settings included in

this user guide), the SMS web server starts automatically at SMS bootup. However, the SMS web server can be

started manually.

To manually start the SMS HP-UX web server, the following command must be executed:

/opt/hpws/apache/bin/apachectl start

To manually start the SMS Windows web server:

1. Click Start...Programs...Apache HTTP Server...Control Apache Server from the Windows main tool bar.

2. Click Start on the current submenu.
