Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes

General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes

4. Use the command

/opt/OV/bin/OpC/opcragt -status

to verify that the Control, Message, and Action Agents are all
running on the managed node.

Installation Tips for IRIX Managed Nodes

❏ The ITO agent software is installed on the

/opt

file tree. If the file

system that hosts the

/opt

file tree is too small for the installation of

ITO Agents, create a symbolic link before installing ITO. For
example: if

/bigdisk

is a local file system with enough free space:

mkdir -p /bigdisk/OV

ln -s /bigdisk/OV /opt/OV

In a cluster environment, you must check that

/bigdisk

is also

accessible from all cluster clients, and that it is mounted from all
client nodes. For example, local file system

/bigdisk

on the cluster

client must be mounted to the exported file system

/bigdisk

on the

cluster server.

Installation Tips for MPE/iX Managed Nodes

NOTE

Interactive log on and log off UDCs are not supported by ITO. For this
reason, logon and logoff UDCs must be disabled during both software
installation and application starts using the vt3k connection.

❏ For software installation, disable the logon/logoff UDCs for

manager.sys, mrg.ovopc

and

agent.ovopc

if these are present.

❏ Always set LANG to C before starting the ITO agent software

installation.

❏ Use ncktest.pub.hpncs to check IP addresses. For more information,

see the section “RPC Daemon or Local Location Broker Problems and
Solutions” on page 422.

On MPE/iX 6.0 use NSLOOKUP.HPDCE.SYS to check IP addresses.

❏ On HP-UX 10.x management servers, ftp is used to install the

MPE/iX agent.

❏ In its current release, ITO only supports the domain name service for

IP address resolution. Therefore the (fully qualified) management
server system must be known by the domain name resolver (as
