HP (Hewlett-Packard) 5992-3193 Computer Accessories User Manual


 
When HP Utilization Provider is installed, it launches the utild daemon, which consumes
minimal CPU, memory, and disk resources. Only 30 days of utilization data are kept in data files
in /var/adm/util. The total disk space used by these files should not exceed 20MB in the
default installation. The utild process wakes up every five minutes and discovers and records
four metrics (CPU, memory, disk, and network utilization); this discovery process has minimal
impact on system performance.
The WBEM schema files for the HP Utilization Provider are installed at /opt/util/mof. For
more information, see utild(1M).
HP SmartSetup Scripting Toolkit
The SmartSetup Scripting Toolkit (SSTK) enables you to deploy a large number of HP Integrity
servers rapidly and efficiently. Using SSTK, you can develop custom scripts that simplify server
deployments by automating various hardware configuration and software installation operations.
SSTK can set specific Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) boot variables, create disk partitions,
and tie into the standard unattended installation process to install the OS and selected applications.
SSTK is delivered as a tar file that is used to install and configure the product. For more
information, see the “Configuring the Repository” section of the SmartSetup Scripting Toolkit
Deployment Guide:

HP SAS Integrated Raid (IR) Configuration Utility
The Integrated Raid (IR) Configuration Utility, cfggen, is a Linux command line utility that
configures the IR functionality of the HP Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) controllers that are used in
LSI-1068-based HP SAS controllers. This utility is a minimally interactive program that can be
executed from the Linux prompt. The result from invoking this utility is communicated to the
environment through the program status value returned when the program exits.
For more information about cfggen, see cfggen(8), the “Utilities Reference” chapter of the
SmartSetup Scripting Toolkit Deployment Guide, or the HP 8 Internal Port SAS Host Bus Adapter (SAS
Controller) Users Guide:

HP Integrity Virtual Machines WBEM Provider
HP Integrity Virtual Machines (Integrity VM), is a soft partitioning and virtualization technology
within the HP Virtual Server Environment, that enables you to create multiple virtual servers or
machines within a single HP Integrity server or nPartition. Each virtual machine hosts its own:
"guest" operating system instance, applications and users. The HP Integrity VM WBEM provider
facilitates the enabling of manageability and support of guests
Product Installation Dependencies
Some software products have dependencies or prerequisites that might not be available on your
system. When installing software, the Management media installer attempts to handle any
dependencies that are required. Also, most required software is provided with your Linux OS
distribution media and should be installed by default.
If there is required software that is not delivered with the Management media installer or with
the Linux OS installation, an error message displays information about the missing software
packages or files and the installation process is aborted. You must then obtain and install the
required packages or files before running the installer again. See your Linux OS for information
about obtaining and installing the missing software. A list of software dependencies for all
supported Linux distributions is provided in “HP Support Pack Dependencies” (page 51).
