NOTES:

During installation, when specifying the HTTP setup, you are prompted for the IP address
of the CMS and the path name for the RHEL installation. For example:

http://CMS-IP-addr:CMS-port/path-name

Where:

CMS-IP-addr

is the IP address of the CMS

CMS-port

is the port number of the repository web server that you specified when
you installed Insight Control for Linux. The factory default value is 60000.

path-name

is the path name of the directory containing the RHEL distribution; this
path name is relative to /opt/repository, for example, enter /os/
RHEL5U5-x64

for the full path name /opt/repository/os/

RHEL5U5–x64

.

For interactive installations of RHEL 4.6, RHEL 4.7, and RHEL 4.8, HP recommends changing
the default port number from 60000 to 80 as follows:

1.

Use a text editor to edit the HTTPD configuration file and comment out the following
line:

Listen 80

The HTTPD configuration file location and name depends on the OS installed on the
CMS:

— If the CMS is installed with a RHEL OS, edit the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

file.

— If the CMS is installed with a SLES OS, edit the /etc/apache2/listen.conf

file.

2.

Restart the Apache service if you have already run Options

IC-LinuxConfigure

Management Services

to start services. If services have not started yet, skip this step.

— If the CMS is installed with a RHEL OS, enter:

# /etc/init.d/httpd restart

— If the CMS is installed with a SLES OS, enter:

# /etc/init.d/apache2 startssl

3.

Use a text editor to edit the /opt/mx/icle/icle.properties file, and set the
REPOSITORY_HTTP_PORT

value to 80.

4.

Stop and restart HP SIM:

# /opt/mx/bin/mxstop

# /opt/mx/bin/mxstart

To launch an interactive RHEL installation, follow these steps:

1.

Select the following menu item from the HP Insight Control user interface:

Deploy

Operating SystemRed Hat Interactive

2.

Follow the generic OS installation procedure in

Section 9.8 (page 106)

.

3.

After the installation is complete, go to the system console and manually install the PSP.
You can install the entire contents of the PSP, but at a minimum, you must install the
components listed in

Table 13-1 (page 143)

, which HP SIM requires.

If you do not install these components of the PSP, you lose the ability to manage the system
with Insight Control for Linux.
