Instant Capacity Requirements

For Versions B.07.x on HP-UX 11i v2

NOTE

HP-UX 11i v2 Requirements

The following software is required for Instant Capacity versions B.07.x on HP-UX 11i v2:

❏HP-UX 11i v2 May 2005 update, or later

❏iCOD software bundle B9073BA (versions B.07.x) — installed automatically when the HP-UX 11i v2 Operating Environment (OE) is installed

❏The kernel configuration must include the diag2 module

❏WBEM B8465BA bundle (version A.01.05 or higher)

❏nPartition provider NPar bundle (version B.11.23.01.04 or higher, available from the OE)

❏If you have a virtual partitioned environment, the Virtual Partitions software (bundle T1335BC) must be version A.04.01 or greater

On HP-UX 11i v2 systems, updated firmware may be required by either or both of the NPar or Virtual Partitions software, as documented for these products.

Your Instant Capacity system is ordered and shipped with all of the above software. In the event your system’s operating system is reinstalled or installed with Ignite-UX, ensure that the above software requirements are satisfied.

E-mail Requirements

For some configurations, previous versions of the Instant Capacity software (prior to B.07.x) required e-mail connectivity to HP in order to send asset reports as encrypted e-mail messages. Instant Capacity versions B.07.x no longer requires e-mail connectivity or asset reporting, however, you may choose to configure it because it can be useful for viewing complex-wide asset information at the Utility Pricing Solutions portal (http://www.hp.com/go/icod/portal).

Note that for a new installation, asset reporting is on by default so that unless you turn asset reporting off or configure the e-mail connectivity, error messages may be logged when the software attempts to send asset
