Administrator's and User's Guide for SFM HP-UX 11i v1 December 2006

2 Installing the SFM Software
The System Fault Management (SFM) software is installed by default with the HP-UX 11i v1
Operating Environment (OE) media. However, at some point you may need to install the SFM
software separately. This chapter describes how to install the SFM software as a standalone
component on the HP-UX 11i v1 operating system.
This chapter discusses the following topics:
• “Prerequisites” (page 15)
• “Installing the SFM Software from the Media” (page 15)
• “Installing the SFM Software from the Web” (page 18)
• “Verifying the Installation” (page 19)
• “Removing the SFM Software” (page 21)
• “Verifying Removal of the SFM Software” (page 25)
• “Configuring Indication Filters” (page 25)
• “Configuring Error Logging in SFM” (page 26)
Prerequisites
Following are the prerequisites for installing the SFM software:
• HP-UX 11i v1 September 2005 Operating Environment Update Release (OEUR) or later
• OpenSSL Version A.00.09.07e.012 or later
• WBEM Services Version A.02.05 or later
• SysMgmtWeb Version A.2.2.5 (HP-UX Web-Based System Management User Interface)
• Online Diagnostics (OnlineDiag bundle B.11.11.16.xx)
Table 1-1 lists the versions of Online Diagnostics that support the SFM software. All later
versions of Online Diagnostics will support the SFM software in the future.
Table 2-1 Online Diagnostics Versions
A.04.20EMS Version
A.49.10STM Version
NOTE: All the prerequisites are available on the OE media. You can select the SFM dependencies
from the OE media while installing the SFM software as a standalone component.
The OnlineDiag bundle is always installed with the OE media.
HP recommends that you install HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) version 5.0.01 to remotely
administer indications and instances.
SysMgmtWeb is optional. However, you will not be able to access EVWEB GUI if SysMgmtWeb
is not installed on the system.
The A.02.05 WBEM Services CORE Product is compatible only with the A.04.00.xx version of
SFM. It is not compatible with the A.01.00.01 or A.03.00.xx version of SFM.
Installing the SFM Software from the Media
This section describes the two ways in which you can install the SFM software from the HP-UX
11i v1 OE media:
• Using the terminal user interface (TUI)
• Using the command-line interface (CLI)
