Setting Kernel Parameters

On an HP-UX server, HP recommends setting the kernel parameter maxdsiz (Max Data Segment Size) to at least 134217728 bytes (128 MB), and the kernel parameter semmnu (Number of Semaphore Undo Structures) to at least 256. After committing these changes, recompile the kernel and reboot the system.

Installation Procedure

TIP If you install the Cell Manager and Installation Server on the same system, you can perform the installation in one step by executing omnisetup.sh -CM -IS. For a description of the omnisetup.sh command, see the README file located in the <Mount_point>/LOCAL_INSTALL directory on the DVD- ROM or the “HP OpenView Storage Data Protector Command Line Interface Reference” located in the <Mount_point>/DOCS/C/MAN directory on the DVD-ROM.

To install the Cell Manager on an HP-UX, Solaris, or Linux system:
