Install Hardware Management Components Using Console Mode

Language:

Before You Begin

To install Management Pack components with Oracle Hardware Management Pack Installer, you must be logged in to 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 where you extract the files 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.
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.
On servers running the Windows Server OS, when installing the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, it is necessary to import the security certificate. See Import the Security Certificate on a Windows Server for more information.

Set up a console session with the server.

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

For Oracle Solaris 10 and Linux systems: /extract-directory/oracle-hmp-version/install.bin -i console
For Oracle Solaris 11 or 11.1 systems: /extract-directory/oracle-hmp-version/install.arch.bin -i console
where arch is SPARC or x86 depending on your processor.
For Windows systems: \extract-directory\oracle-hmp-version\install.exe -i console

The system displays output similar to the following:

Preparing to install...
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installer for this system's environment...

Oracle Hardware Management Pack                  (created with InstallAnywhere)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------




===============================================================================
Introduction
------------

InstallAnywhere will guide you through the installation of Oracle Hardware
Management Pack.

It is strongly recommended that you quit all programs before continuing with
this installation.

Respond to each prompt to proceed to the next step in the installation.  If you
want to change something on a previous step, type 'back'.

You may cancel this installation at any time by typing 'quit'.

The system displays:
```
ENTER A COMMA_SEPARATED LIST OF NUMBERS REPRESENTING THE FEATURES YOU WOULD
LIKE TO SELECT, OR DESELECT. TO VIEW A FEATURE'S DESCRIPTION, ENTER
'?<NUMBER>'.  PRESS RETURN WHEN YOU ARE DONE:

    1- [X] Hardware Management Agents
    2- [X] CLI Tools
    3- [X] HMP Watchdog Agent
    4- [ ] IPMITool
    5- [ ] Emulex Fiber Channel support
    6- [ ] QLogic Fiber Channel support
    7- [ ] Mellanox Infiniband support

Please choose the Features to be installed by this installer.:
```
Options 1, 2 and 3 are preselected.

To toggle options, type a comma separated list of numbers. Any number toggles the corresponding option. For example, in the default selection shown above, typing 1,4 deselects Hardware Management Agents and selects IPMItool.

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.

When you have typed the features you want to install, press return.

If the system displays:

===============================================================================
Dependency requirement for feature selection.
----------------------------------------------

Before installing hmp packages, please resolve these requirements:

Emulex Fibre Channel support requires package(s):  elxocmcore
libhbaapi-devel
QLogic Fibre Channel support requires package(s):  libhbaapi-devel

1- Exit and resolve the dependencies.
2- Continue and de-select unresolved packages.

Choose one of the options and press Enter.

Depending on your choices in Step 3:
- If you did not choose to install Hardware Management Agents, go to Step 6.
- If you chose to install Hardware Management Agents, the system displays:
```
Configure Hardware Management Agent
-----------------------------------

Start the Hardware Management Agent? This agent's short name is hwmgmtd.

->1- Yes
2- No
```
  Type the number for your choice or press Enter to select Yes.
  
  The following screen appears:
```
Configure SNMP Agent
--------------------

Start the SNMP agent? This agent's short name is snmpd on Linux, sma on Solaris,
and SNMP on Windows.
->1- Yes
2- No
```
  Type the number for your choice or press Enter to select Yes.
Perform one of the following:
- If you did not choose to install Hardware Management Agents in Step 3, or your server does not support the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, go to Step 10.
- If you chose to install Hardware Management Agents in step 3, and your server supports the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, then you can configure the ILOM trap proxy:
```
================================================================
Configure ILOM  Trap Proxy
--------------------------

The ILOM trap proxy enables you to forward traps generated by an Oracle ILOM service
processor to a network destination without having to connect the service processor
to the destination network. When enabling the SNMP trap proxy, you must configure the
IP, port and SNMP community that your destination is listening on.

Do you want to enable ILOM Trap Proxy?

1- Yes
->2- No
```
  If you want to enable the fault trap proxy, type 1. The system offers options to configure the SNMP fault trap proxy, or to accept the defaults:
```
Destination IP (DEFAULT: 127.0.0.1):

Destination Port (DEFAULT: 162):

Destination Community (DEFAULT: public):  
```
If you did not choose to install CLI Tools in Step 3, go to Step 10. If you chose CLI Tools in Step 3, the system displays:
```
Configure Host-to-ILOM Interconnect
-----------------------------------

Configure the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect between the host and ILOM.
This is a high-speed connection that allows fast communication with
ILOM using an internal IP address.

1- Configure automatically
->2- Configure manually
```
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. For more information on Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, see Enabling the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect.
By default the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect is disabled and unconfigured. If the server you are installing on supports the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect, you can select one of these options:
Type the number for your choice or Enter to select Configure automatically.

If you choose 1 or 3, go to Step 11. If you choose 2–Configure manually, the system displays:
```
Configure Host-to-ILOM Interconnect Manually
--------------------------------------------

Specify the following parameters.

IP Address: (DEFAULT: 169.254.182.76):

Netmask: (DEFAULT: 255.255.255.0):

Host IP Address: (DEFAULT: 169.254.182.77):
```
Type the appropriate values for the IP Address, Netmask, and Host IP Address and press Enter.
The Pre-Installation Summary appears.
