18 Installation Guide for the Intel Server Control
You should see file names similar to the following:
ipmidrvr-2.2.14.6.1.1smp-1.i386.rpm
ipmidrvr-2.2.16.22smp-1.i386.rpm
isc-3.1-1.i386.rpm
installme
4. Run the ISC install script from the directory you listed in the previous step by entering the
following command at the command-line prompt:
./installme
5. Follow the instructions on your screen. The script prompts you to read and accept a license
agreement. Next, the ISC install program determines the version of the Red Hat Linux kernel
running on your server and installs the right version of the IPMI driver on your server. The
script then proceeds to install the ISC package (e.g. isc-3.1-1.i386.rpm) on your server. In case
the installation of the driver fails, the script displays appropriate error messages and then
terminates without installing the ISC package.
6. Reboot the Linux server when the command completes.
Configuring the SNMP–DMI Mapper
You must complete these steps if any SNMP management console (HP OpenView, CA UniCenter)
will manage the Linux server.
1. Verify that the dmi2snmp and ucd-snmp packages are installed. For example, the files
dmi2snmp-10-15.i386.rpm and ucd-snmp-4.1.1-15smux.i386.rpm could represent
the dmi2snmp and ucd-snmp packages, respectively.
2. Open the file
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf. You can use any available editor such as vi, emacs,
or a linux editor.
3. Add a trapsink line at the end of the file for each management console that receives traps from
the managed server. Use the following syntax when adding the line:
trapsink <myhost_name.domain.com>
Be sure to substitute appropriate strings for the host name and domain.
