Installing and Configuring PPU Software

Configuring PPU Software

		Configuring PPU Software
		After you have successfully installed the PPU B.06.x software, using the
		swinstall command, you need to configure the PPU https client
		connection to the utility meter. The utility meter must be configured on
		every partition, including virtual partitions.
NOTE		The following configuration procedure assumes your utility meter has
		been installed on the PPU system’s network by your HP service
		representative. If the utility meter is not installed, contact your HP
		service representative.
		There can be up to four steps to configure your PPU system, depending
		on whether or not your network uses a proxy server, and if you desire to
		specify a name other than your system’s hostname as the system
		identifier.
		At a minimum, the name of the utility meter must be set. The four steps
		to configure the PPU software are:
Step	1.	Configure the hostname of the utility meter (required)
Step	2.	Configure the hostname of the proxy server (if necessary)
Step	3.	Configure the proxy server’s username and password (if required by the
		proxy server)
Step	4.	Configure the system identifier (if desired)

Configuring the Utility Meter (required)

To set the hostname of the utility meter, execute the following command:

/usr/sbin/ppuconfig -m meter

Where meter is the fully qualified hostname or IP address of the utility meter.
