Installing Software from the HP Support Pack

1.If your system is running RHEL5U1, you must disable SELinux before installing the BEA JRockit 5.0 JDK. Otherwise, bypass this step.

#echo 0 >/selinux/enforce

2.Download the JRockit 5.0 R27.5 JDK Linux (Intel Itanium - 64-bit) file to the directory on the Linux system where HP Partition Manager, nPartition Commands, and nPartition Provider are to be installed from the BEA JRockit website:

http://download2.bea.com/pub/jrockit/50/jrockit-R27.5.0-jdk1.5.0_14-linux-ipf.bin

3.Set execute permissions on the downloaded file:

#chmod a+x jrockit-R27.5.0-jdk1.5.0_14-linux-ipf.bin

4.Run the self-extracting binary to extract the RPM file:

#./jrockit-R27.5.0-jdk1.5.0_14-linux-ipf.bin

NOTE: The initial "./" is required if you do not have "." (a period) in your PATH environment variable.

A binary license agreement is displayed.

5.You must agree to the BEA JRockit 5.0 JDK license agreement to proceed with the installation.

NOTE: The default installation path is /root/jrockit-R27.5.0-jdk1.5.0_14, which can be modified during the installation process. A good location to install the JRockit 5.0 JDK is /usr/local/. Use this information when setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable in the next step.

6.Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable:

#export JAVA_HOME="javaDir"

where javaDir is the directory in which the BEA JRockit 5.0 JDK files were installed. For example, /root/jrockit-R27.5.0-jdk1.5.0_14.

NOTE: The JAVA_HOME environment variable must be exported in this fashion prior to, and in the same shell session as, the use of the HP Support Pack installer.

7.If your system is running RHEL5U1, you must re-enable SELinux. Otherwise, bypass this step.

# echo 1 >/selinux/enforce
