Installation Steps

1	Find out current version	1.	Verify that you have previous sv6_enhancements
			software on your master system.
		2.	If you do not have a previous version of this sv6 software
			and/or June 2001 or later X server and OpenGL on your
			system, do not install the sv6_enhancements bundle.
			Contact HP Support.

2Verify prerequisites.1. Must be able to login as root on master node, which is connected to an HP sv6 compositor.

2.Verify that /var/opt/sps/sv6ﬁles/sv6_targets contains gigabit hostnames for all systems in the conﬁguration. (i.e. svm sv1 …sv16)

3.Must be a rack of HPUX 11.0 workstations conﬁgured according to sv6 standards which includes these critical ones:

•A recent version of the Quality Pack is highly recommended. It contains graphics patches and other standard HP patches.

•Must have June 2001 or newer X server and OpenGL (PHSS_23546, PHSS_23544,5) and/or an SV6 Core Update patch installed. Check date by running: what /opt/graphics/OpenGL/lib/libGL.1

•SD tools must be conﬁgured for swinstall to multiple targets (touch /var/adm/sw/.sdkey) and allow root access from the master node to all slave nodes (swacl).

•Master has root permissions assigned in /.rhosts on all slave nodes.

•Gigabit network must be functional: (remsh sv1 echo hello)

•See other details in the scalable visualization guides at: http://www.hp.com/workstations/support/document ation/hpux_manuals.html#scalablevis

3	Download software and	1. Download and save the sv6_enhancements and
	install script	install_sv6_enhancements ﬁles on the master system.
