Manually Install Components on an Oracle Solaris 10 Server

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.

• 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.

• 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.

• If your system includes adapters using technology from QLogic or Emulex, you must install the appropriate third-party utilities included with Hardware Management Pack. See Available Packages for Oracle Solaris 10.

1. If you want to install only IPMItool or IPMIflash, see the following steps. If you also want to install the other Hardware Management Pack components, go to Step 3.
   • To install ipmiflash, run the following command:

     pkgadd -d /extract-directory/packages ipmiflash

   • To install ipmitool, run the following command:

     pkgadd -d /extract-directory/packages ipmitool

2. If you see the prompt to install conflicting files, type y to continue the installation.
3. Determine which Hardware Management Pack components that you want to install, see Available Packages for Oracle Solaris 10.
4. To install the packages, use the following command:

   pkgadd -d /extract-directory/packages ORCLhmp-libs additional components

   For example, to install just the Hardware Management agent and SNMP plugins:

   pkgadd -d /extract-directory/packages ORCLhmp-libs ORCLhmp-hwmgmt ORCLhmp-snmp

5. Follow the on screen instructions to continue the installation.

   The selected components are installed.
