Performing a New Installation of the Cisco MGC Node Manager
Task 9: Install Cisco MGC Node Manager 2.5(2) and Verify the Installation
Follow these instructions to install Cisco MGC Node Manager. If you are upgrading from Version 1.5 or
2.x, see the Upgrading from Previous Cisco MGC Node Manager Versions section on page 2-17.
Identify any necessary patches by checking the location given in the Installation Software section on
page 2-1.
Note You must install the Cisco MGC Node Manager software as root.
Follow the procedure below to install Cisco MGC Node Manager on a standalone system or on both
machines (Management server and Presentation server) in a distributed configuration. The Cisco MGC
Node Manager installation process automatically detects if the Cisco EMF complete software is
installed, or only the Cisco EMF Client, and then installs the correct Cisco MGC Node Manager
component.
Note If you are installing another element manager to run co-resident with Cisco MGC Node Manager, this is
also the point in the installation sequence at which it should be installed. See the Release Notes for
Co-Residence (of Cisco MGC Node Manager and another EMS) at
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/netmgtsw/ps1912/prod_release_notes_list.html.
Installing Cisco MGC Node Manager
Step 1 Make sure that Cisco EMF is running.
Step 2 Type cd <CEMF_ROOT>/bin, and enter the following command to verify that Cisco EMF is running:
>./cemf query
Cisco EMF should display the following message:
CEMF Manager 3.2 initialized
Step 3 If you are not already logged in as root, enter su - root to become the root user.
Step 4 Verify that the Volume Management daemon is running:
Enter the command ps -ef | grep vold. If the daemon is running, you see the following output:
root 363 1 0 May 23 ? 0:01 /usr/sbin/vold
If the daemon is running, go on to Step 5. If the daemon is not running, start the daemon using the
following command:
/etc/init.d/volmgt start
Verify that the Volume Management daemon is running with the command provided above. If it is still
not running, contact your system administrator.
Step 5 Place the Cisco MGC Node Manager installation media into the CD-ROM drive.
Step 6 Enter cd /cdrom/cscocmnm.
