Manual Installation Procedures
The chapter guides you through a manual installation of Cisco WAN Manager (SV+) and its
associated software programs.
Note Prior to installing CWM 9.2, you must haveSun’s Solaris 2.6 and optionally, though strongly
recommended, HewlettPackard’s OpenView 5.01 installed on your workstation. Youmay also need
to customize the set up of the raw partition size for Informix OnLine. For limited instructions on
installing the Solaris 2.6 and partitioning your disk for Informix OnLine, see Appendix A, as well
asthe Sun Installation Guide. For instructions on installing HP OpenView,refer to the HP OpenView
Installation Guide.
When Solaris 2.6 and HP OpenView 5.01 are already installed on your machine and your disk is
partitioned to your satisfaction, you are ready to proceed to “Installing the Cisco WANManager 9.2
Software”.
When you plan to use the HP OpenView 5.01 and/or Wingz 2.5.1 applications in conjunction with
the CWM 9.2 product, you must install these applications prior to installing CWM 9.2.
When you plan to use the CiscoView4.2 application in conjunction with the CWM 9.2 product, you
do not have to install CiscoView 4.2 prior to installing CWM 9.2.

Installing the Cisco WAN Manager 9.2 Software

You can install the CWM 9.2 software from either a locally attached or remote CD-ROM drive.
When you invokethe installation script from a remote drive, the remote and local platforms do not
have to be running the same operating system. Following is a list of the tasks you must perform to
load and mount the CD-ROM, install the CWM 9.2 and associated software, configure the various
product components, and start the CWM 9.2 software.
