Setting Up Container Manager

After installation is complete, you must run the Container Manager setup script to configure the server and agent layers. As with installation of the software, you can run the setup process at the time you setup the Sun Management Center 3.5 Update 1 installation or upgrade. You can also set up the software individually, at a later time.

The same configuration file changes take place during the setup process when initiated from the command line as that occur when using the setup wizard. For example the scheduling class is still set to fair share scheduler (FSS). For more information, see Setting Up Container Manager Software.

To Set Up Container Manager During Sun Management Center Installation or Upgrade

1. For more information and detailed steps, see “Using the Command Line for Uninstall, Install, and Setup” in Sun Management Center 3.5 Installation and Configuration Guide.

To Set Up Container Manager Individually

This procedure assumes that you chose not to set up Container Manager at the end of the installation process.

1. Run the Sun Management Center 3.5 Update 1 setup script as superuser (su –). Choose one of the following options:

   • To run setup on all components that are not yet set up, type:

     # /opt/SUNWsymon/sbin/es-setup

   • To run setup on the Container Manager add-on software only, type:

     # /opt/SUNWsymon/sbin/es-setup -p SCM

     where /opt is the directory in which Sun Management Center 3.5 Update 1 is installed. Substitute the name of the actual directory if it is different on your system.

   The following is an example of the output you might see:

   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This script will help you to setup Sun (TM) Management Center 3.5 Update 1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Setting up Addon[s]... ------------------------------------------- Starting N1 Grid Console - Container Manager Setup ------------------------------------------- Setup for N1 Grid Console - Container Manager - Agent Layer FSS is made as the scheduling class of all the pools The memory capping packages are not available on this host. The setup will not be able to configure memory capping functionality Task based extended accounting is successfully enabled Processes under TS and IA scheduling class are moved under FSS Entry for scm-container successfully added Setup for N1 Grid Console - Container Manager - Server Layer Setup for N1 Grid Console - Container Manager - Web Console

2. Review the list of components that must be stopped for the set up process to continue.

3. Confirm that Container Manager is the product to be set up.

4. When setting up the agent layer, if processor sets are detected on the system that are not associated with a resource pool, please select from the following:

   • Yes – These particular processor sets will be deleted from the system. In order for Container Manager to function correctly, any processor set that is not associated with a resource pool must be removed as they will cause problems with pool management. After this selection, these processor sets are automatically deleted for you, and the setup process continues.

   • No – These particular processor sets will not be deleted from the system. After this selection, the setup script exits and the Container Manager software is not setup on the system. You are unable to use the Container Manager software on any host on which exists processor sets that are not associated with a resource pool.

   • Cancel – The setup script exits. The Container Manager software is not setup on the system.

5. If you have previously completed the set up process for other Sun Management Center products, indicate whether you want to run setup again for all software or just the newest add-on software.

6. When setting up a server layer installation, provide the full path to a directory that has at least 300 MB free disk space for the database.

7. Indicate whether or not you want to start the Sun Management Center agent and server components by answering Y or N.

   The following is an example of the output you might see:

   Do you want to start Sun Management Center agent and server components now (y|n|q)

8. You receive confirmation when the software is set up.

Once the setup procedure is complete, you have the option to start the Sun Management Center processes. For more information, see “Starting and Stopping Sun Management Center” in Sun Management Center 3.5 Installation and Configuration Guide.
