For SUSE:

# cp -a /srv/www/htdocs/colplot /opt/cmu/www/colplot

6.

Change the default colplot plot directory to point to the common collectl directory:

# vi /etc/colplot.conf

#PlotDir = /opt/hp/collectl/plotfiles
PlotDir = /var/log/collectl

7.

If not already done, install the collectl rpm on compute nodes:

# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt

# cd /mnt/tools/collectl

# rpm -ivh collectl-3.x.x-x.noarch.rpm

Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:collectl ########################################### [100%]

8.

Otherwise, if the collectl rpm is already installed, ensure that collectl is stopped:

# /etc/init.d/collectl stop

9.

Import the common directory created on the administration server for collectl.

# mkdir /var/log/collectl

# vi /etc/fstab

X.X.X.X:/var/log/collectl /var/log/collectl nfs defaults 0 0

where X.X.X.X is the address of your HP Insight CMU administration server.

10. Modify the collectl configuration file to save data to be plotted in the common directory:

# vi /etc/collectl.conf

DaemonCommands = -s+dcmnNE --import misc --export lexpr -A server -i5 -f /var/log/collectl -P -oz -r
00:01,7

11. Restart collectl:

# /etc/init.d/collectl restart
