HP UX 11i v3 Networking Software manual Installing and configuring SDP, Uninstallation

2 Installing and configuring SDP

SDP shares the same IP addresses and interface names as IPoIB. For more information about IPoIB, see IPoIB(7) and HP Fabric Clustering System - HP-UX Administrator's Guide at www.hp.com/go/ fabric-clustering-infiniband-docs.

Prerequisites

IB4X-00 depot version 1.31.1304 must be installed on the system. It can be downloaded from the HP Software Depot website at www.software.hp.com. This depot contains the drivers for infiniband HCA and the RDS protocols.

Installation instructions

To install SDP using the non-interactive method, run the following command:

#swinstall -x reinstall=false -x autoreboot=true -s (depot-path)

HPUX-SDP

To install SDP using the interactive method, run the following command:

# swinstall -x reinstall=false -x autoreboot=true -s (depot-path)

To verify that SDP is installed, run the following command:

# swverify HPUX-SDP

Uninstallation

To uninstall SDP, run the following command:

# swremove -x autoreboot=true HPUX-SDP

To verify that SDP is uninstalled from the system, run the following command:

# swlist -l bundle HPUX-SDP

NOTE: The bundle name is HPUX-SDP and the product name is SDP. SDP is provided only for HP-UX 11i v3.

Configuring SDP using libsdp.conf file

The following statements are supported by the libsdp.conf file:

•use—defines the protocol (SDP or TCP) to be used for the sockets that match the particular line.

•log—for setting logging related configuration. Because the log settings take immediate effect, logs are defined at the beginning of the configuration file.

See “Configuration files for libsdp.conf” (page 14) for a sample libsdp.conf file. For information about how to edit the libsdp.conf file, see “Integrating applications with SDP using libsdp.so library” (page 6).
