How to Install Hardware Management Components Using Console Mode

Before You Begin

To install Management Pack components with Oracle Hardware Management Pack Installer, you must be logged into your system with Administrator privileges.
Down load and extract the Hardware Management Pack Software. See Getting the Software.

The directory that you extract the files is referred to as extract-directory in this procedure.
For Windows SP2 or earlier, you must first install the Sun IPMI System Management Driver. See Installing the Sun IPMI System Management Driver 2.1.

Set up a console session with the server.
See product documentation for instructions on doing this.

To start the installer, issue one of the following commands:

For Solaris or Linux systems: /extract-directory/oracle-hmp-2.1/SOFTWARE/install.bin -i console
For Windows systems: \extract-directory\oracle-hmp-2.1\SOFTWARE\install.exe -i console
