If you intend to use HP Insight CMU monitoring, you must install it on the golden node before
performing a backup.
The expect package is mandatory and must be installed on the compute nodes.

Ensure that the required expect package is installed on the golden image node and install the
monitoring agent as follows, using the HP Insight CMU GUI client:
1.
Enable Administrator mode Options
→Administrator Mode.
2. In the left panel tree of the HP Insight CMU GUI client, right-click the node holding the golden
image.
3. Click Update.
4. Select Install CMU monitoring client.
The status of the rpm installation appears in an xterm window. A dialog box notifies you when the
installation is complete.
NOTE: If you are upgrading from an older version of HP Insight CMU, then you must reinstall
the new HP Insight CMU monitoring agents from the HP Insight CMU v7.1 rpm or HP Insight CMU
monitoring will not start.
