PRM Release Notes

Compatibility information and installation requirements

Chapter 1 9

Step 7. Ensure the NodeHostNameXpnd bundle is installed if you want to use long

hostnames on HP-UX 11i v2. Configure long hostnames as described below.

Set the kernel tunable to allow long hostnames:

# kctune expanded_node_host_names=1

Set the node and hostname, with the changes being persistent across boots:

# /sbin/set_parms hostname

where hostname is the literal string hostname—not the desired hostname. You will

be prompted for the hostname.

For configuration information, read the paper “Node and Host Name Sizes on

HP-UX,” available in /usr/share/doc/NodeHostNameSize.pdf on systems with the

NodeHostNameXpnd bundle installed.

Step 8. Configure PRM GUI and restart HP System Management Homepage (SMH)

NOTE This step assumes SMH is already installed. If not, install SMH

before completing this step. (As of May 2005, SMH is available from

the Applications DVD and the Operating Environment DVD. It is

also available from http://www.hp.com/go/softwaredepot.)

If you are going to use PRM’s interface available through SMH, perform the

following steps:

a. Configure the PRM interface by running:

# /opt/prm/bin/prmsmhconfig -c

b. Restart SMH

http://SMH_host:2301

where SMH_host has SMH and PRM C.03.02 or later installed.

By using port 2301, SMH is restarted.

You can now access the PRM interface in SMH through the following links:
