That is, PPU customers order T2805AA and URS customers order T5462A.
The Utility Meter software is compatible with HP-UX 11i v2, and HP-UX 11i v3. The HP-UX Base Operating
Environment (BOE) or HP-UX Foundation Operating Environment (FOE) is adequate to run the Utility Meter
software application. The Utility Meter 8.13 software is supported on the following operating systems:
• HP-UX 11i v2 (11.23) – May 2005 or later
• HP-UX 11i v3 (11.31)
The Utility Meter software is available from the following:

HP Utility Meter software products.
The Utility Meter software is a selectable product in swinstall. (See the manpage swinstall(1M) for details
of the swinstall command.)
The Utility Meter software is different from the required PPU Agent software or the WBEM provider software
that is installed on the partitions of a PPU server. The Utility Meter software, version 8.13, is compatible with
the PPU Agent software versions 7.0, or later. The PPU Agent software and the WBEM provider software
both use port 5989 for communication with the Utility Meter.
IMPORTANT: Although technically possible, HP does not recommend installing the Utility Meter software
on a server's partition that is under a PPU contract.
