Chapter 4 HPSS Installation
HPSS Installation Guide September 2002 213
Release 4.5, Revision 2
1. Log on as root.
2. Place the constructed HPSS source tree (i.e., HPSS base source tree, HPSS HDM source tree,
or HPSS Non-DCE source tree) in the desired build directory (the default location is
/opt/hpss).
3. Review the Makefile.macros file which is in the root of the source tree. This file defines the
"make" environments and options for the HPSS software compilation. Before running the
"make" command, ensure that the BUILD_TOP_ROOT macro specifies the run-time tree
in which the HPSS executables and libraries will be placed.
4. Issue make clean command.
5. Issue make command.
6. If the HPSS binaries and libraries are to be installed in a location different from their build
location, copy them to the install tree.
4.5.3 Set Up Sammi License Key
If Sammi is to be executed from an HPSS node, the Sammi software must be installed. The Sammi
license key provided by Kinesix must be set up before Sammi can be invoked. The Sammi license
key can be set up as follows:
1. Change directory to <Sammi installation directory>/bin:
% cd <Sammi installation directory>/bin
2. Execute the sammi_license utility:
% sammi_license -w
The user will be prompted for the host name where the SSM session will run and the Sammi license
key. Verify that the <Sammi installation directory>/bin/.s2_license.<hostname> file is created
with the read/write permissions for all SSM users.
