Installing the CIM Extension for HP Tru64 UNIX

Follow these additional steps if you are using the HP SIM Plug-in to install the CIM extension for HP Tru64 UNIX using only the HP SIM private key:

1.On the management server, open a command window and cd to C:\Program Files\HP\Systems Insight Manager\config\sshtools.

2.Run the following command:

ssh-keygen -e -f .dtfSshKey.pub > <MANAGEMENT_SERVER_NAME>.pub

where <MANAGEMENT_SERVER_NAME> is the hostname of the management server.

3.Copy <MANAGEMENT_SERVER_NAME>.pub to the .ssh2 directory of the Tru64 root user's home directory.

4.Login to the Tru64 host as the root user, and run the following command:

echo "Key <MANAGEMENT_SERVER_NAME>.pub" >> .ssh2/authorization

Password-less deploy will now work correctly.

Log Files

When you install, remove, or upgrade CIM extensions using the HP SIM Plug-in, the log files are saved to the following location:

<SIM Install Directory>\plugin\sedeploy\logs\cedeploy.<CIME host IP>.log

About Upgrading Your CIM Extensions

You must upgrade your CIM extensions to obtain new functionality such as the following:

•QLogic failover on Linux hosts

•SecurePath support

•PowerPath support on Microsoft Windows

•Backup support - Backup information is not gathered from legacy CIM extensions. For backup information to be gathered by the management server, the CIM extension on the Backup Manager Host must be at the same software build as the management server. When you upgrade your management server, upgrade the CIM extensions on your Backup Manager Host to continue to see backup data.

•Cluster discovery
