To install Management Pack components with Oracle Hardware Management Pack Installer, you must be logged into your system with administrative privileges.
-
Before installing Oracle Hardware Management Pack, refer to the Prerequisites and Installation Issues sections for information pertaining to your installed OS.
-
Download and extract the Hardware Management Pack. See Getting the Software.
The directory that you extract the files to is referred to as
extract-directory in this
procedure.
-
For Windows Server 2003 SP2 or earlier, you must first install the
Sun IPMI System Management Driver. See Installing the Sun IPMI System Management Driver 2.1.
This driver is included with other operating systems.
-
The packages for Hardware Management Pack have dependencies that
must be satisfied for a successful installation. See Software Dependencies for more
information.
-
On the Oracle Solaris OS, due to the restrictions of
pkgadd(1M), the path that you extract the
Hardware Management Pack to must not contain any spaces for the
installation process to proceed.
-
To start the installer, type one of the following commands:
The splash screen appears.
-
If any of the following dialogs appears, perform the appropriate
action.
-
If the following dialog appears, click Quit and log into the
system with administrative privileges.
-
If the following dialog appears, click Quit and remove the
previously installed version of the software.
-
If the following dialog appears, click Quit and then check
that you have the correct software version for your processor
architecture.
If the installation is ready to proceed, the Introduction screen
appears.
When you are ready to proceed, click Next.
-
From the Install Set drop-down menu, select either Standard or
Custom.
-
If you select Standard, the Hardware Management Agents and CLI
Tools components are automatically selected.
-
If you select Custom, the Choose Install Set screen
appears.
-
For information on the available components, click the component
name.
The Description field displays information about the component.
Note -
Some components of Hardware Management Pack are hardware or OS
specific and are available in the installer only on compatible
systems.
The Fibre Channel support options should only be selected on
servers with compatible hardware. Selecting these options on a
server without the supported hardware makes the installation process
slower.
-
Select the components that you want to install using the check boxes
and then click Next.
-
If one of the following dialogs appears, take the appropriate
action:
-
Click OK and deselect the Hardware Management Agent feature

-
Choose one of the following:
-
If you did not select the Hardware Management Agent, or your
server does not support the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, then go
to the next step.
-
If you selected the Hardware Management Agent, and your server
supports the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, then you can choose to
enable the ILOM trap proxy.
The ILOM trap proxy enables you to forward fault traps
generated by an Oracle ILOM SP to a network destination over the
Host-to-ILOM Interconnect. When enabling the ILOM trap proxy,
you must configure the IP, port and SNMP community that your
destination is listening on.
-
If your server supports the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, then you can
choose to configure the interconnect during installation. For more
information on Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, see Enabling the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect.
-
On servers without the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, go to the
next step.
-
On supported platforms, the Configure Host-to-ILOM
Interconnect screen appears.
Note -
The Host-to-ILOM Interconnect must be enabled for the ILOM trap
proxy to function. It is also required for the Oracle Linux Fault
Management Architecture (FMA) component.
By default the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect is disabled and unconfigured.
Select one of the options for configuring the Host-to-ILOM
Interconnect:
-
If you select the Configure automatically option, the
Host-to-ILOM Interconnect is configured using default
settings.
-
If you select the Configure manually option, you need to type
the IP Address, Netmask, and Host IP Address information.
Note -
Automatic configuration is recommended, manual configuration is
provided for expert use.
-
A Pre-Installation Summary screen appears with information similar to
the following screen.
Verify that the information in the Pre-Installation Summary is
correct.
-
Click Done to complete the installation.
-
(Optional) To verify that Oracle Hardware Management Pack is installed
correctly, run a command. For example, enter the following CLI command
as root:
# ilomconfig --version
If it is installed correctly, Oracle Hardware Management Pack displays
version information.
