• On HP-UX and Linux: /opt/hpjmeter
• On Microsoft® Windows: C:\Program Files\HPjmeter
Installing HPjmeter on HP-UX
Installation requires root access or permission from root previously configured into swacl. Decide
which HPjmeter components you want to install and where, and do so using the following
commands:
To install the console using Software Distributor (SD):
$ sudo swinstall -s /depot_path/depot_name HPjmeterClient
To install the node agent and JVM agent using SD:
$ sudo swinstall -s /depot_path/depot_name HPjmeterMN
To install all components using SD:
$ sudo swinstall -s /depot_path/depot_name \*
/opt/hpjmeter/lib includes subdirectories for 32- and 64-bit versions of agent shared libraries
appropriate for the architecture of the system. Installation also starts the daemon process called
nodeagent , which is required for communication between the JVMs and the management console.
Adding HPjmeter to the HP Systems Insight Manager Interface
The software package that allows you to launch HPjmeter from the HP Systems Insight Manager
interface is installed using the command
$ /usr/sbin/swinstall -s location_of_HPjmeter-SIM_depot
NOTE: For HPjmeter to work properly with HP Systems Insight Manager, the HP Systems Insight
Manager file set SysMgmtServer.MX-CORE-ARCH must be installed on the same central
management server (CMS) where you plan to install HPjmeter.
To complete this installation, do the following:
1. After installation completes, start HP Systems Insight Manager.
2. Run the script
$ /opt/hpjmeter/bin/sim_client_init
to configure HP Systems Insight Manager with the appropriate HPjmeter console files.
Uninstalling HPjmeter from HP Systems Insight Manager
When uninstalling the console from HP Systems Insight Manager, do the following:
