Install the Oracle Linux FMA Software as an Independent Component

To install Oracle Linux FMA software, you must be logged in to your system with root privileges.
You must have already installed the required Oracle Linux packages as described in Install the Required Linux Components Before Installing Oracle Linux FMA Software.
You must have downloaded and extracted the Oracle Hardware Management Pack software as described in Getting the Software
You must enable the "Host-to-ILOM Interconnect" feature on both the SP (using Oracle ILOM) and the host. See Enabling the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect.

Install the Oracle Hardware Management Pack software required to obtain ilomconfig and enable the Host-to-ILOM interconnect on the host.

Note:

If you have already installed the hmp-libs and hmp-tools packages, you can skip to step c.
1. Install the hmp-libs package by typing the following command:
  
  # rpm -ivh /extract-directory/packages/oracle-hmp-libs*rpm
  
  where the extract-directory is where you extracted Oracle Hardware Management Pack software. The install script will install the required libraries.
2. Install the hmp-tools package by typing the following command:
  
  # rpm -ivh /extract-directory/packages/oracle-hmp-tools*rpm
  
  where the extract-directory is where you extracted Oracle Hardware Management Pack software. The install script will install the CLI tools.
3. Enable the Host-to-ILOM interconnect feature by typing the following command:
  
  # /usr/sbin/ilomconfig enable interconnect
Install the Oracle Linux FMA software.
- If you know you have completed all prerequisites listed in Install the Required Linux Components Before Installing Oracle Linux FMA Software section, type:
  
  # rpm -ivh /extract-directory/packages/fm-version.el6.x86_64.rpm
  
  where the extract-directory is where you extracted Oracle Hardware Management Pack software. The Linux install script installs and starts the Oracle Linux FMA software. The following is an output example of a successful installation:
```

  Note:
  
  If required, the Fault Manager installer prompts you for any missing OS components. Use Yum to install any OS components that are missing.
- If you are not sure you have completed all prerequisites listed in the Install the Required Linux Components Before Installing Oracle Linux FMA Software section and want the installer to make changes for you, type:
  
  # LFMA_UPDATE=1 rpm -ivh /extract-directory/packages/fm-version.el6.x86_64.rpm
  
  where the extract-directory is where you extracted Oracle Hardware Management Pack software. The Linux install script installs, fixes any issues, and starts the Oracle Linux FMA software. The following is an output example of a successful installation.

- If you have completed all the prerequisites listed in the Install the Required Linux Components Before Installing Oracle Linux FMA Software section, but specifically want a different memory-ce-threshold setting in the /etc/mcelog/mcelog.conf file than the recommended "memory-ce-threshold = 3 / 72h", type:
  
  # LFMA_SKIP_CHECK=1 rpm -ivh /extract-directory/packages/fm-version.el6.x86_64.rpm
  
  where the extract-directory is where you extracted Oracle Hardware Management Pack software. The Linux install script installs without altering your current configurations and starts the Oracle Linux FMA software. The following is an output example of a successful installation.
```
testsystem 214 #>LFMA_SKIP_CHECK=1 rpm -ivh fm-2.4.1.0.2-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

  Note:
  
  If you change other settings listed in the Install the Required Linux Components Before Installing Oracle Linux FMA Software section other than the memory-ce-threshold, Oracle Linux FMA might not run.
