Installing and Configuring PPU Software

Configuring PPU Software

NOTE

You can set the utility meter, proxy server, username/password, and

 

system identifier (or any combination) with the single command:

 

/usr/sbin/ppuconfig -m meter -p proxy[:port] -u -s system_id

 

 

Viewing the System Settings

You can view the utility meter, proxy server, proxy-server username, proxy-server password (not displayed), and system identifier settings with the ppuconfig command (with no options).

Example 3-1 Viewing system settings using the ppuconfig command

/usr/sbin/ppuconfig

 

Utility Meter IP/Hostname:

meter1.corp.com

Proxy Server:

Not Set

Proxy Username:

Not Set

Proxy Password:

Not Set

System Identifier

superdome1.corp.com

See the “ppuconfig (1M) Manpage” on page 73 for details of the ppuconfig command.

Verifying the https Connection

After you have specified the utility meter and (if desired) system identifier settings, execute the following command to verify the utility meter configuration:

/usr/sbin/ppuconfig -t

You should see output similar to:

Round trip communication with the utility meter succeeded

If you do not receive the above message, correct the utility meter configuration — according to the error message received.

If you receive the correct message, your PPU system/partition is properly configured and no further configuration action is necessary.
