Before you install the Management Agents for OpenVMS software on your
Alpha or I64 system with
HP TCPIP stack, follow these steps:
- Install TCP/IP
For TCP/IP installation instructions, refer to TCP/IP Services
for OpenVMS---Management.
- Enable SNMP
If SNMP is not enabled on your system, follow these steps:
- Execute the following command procedure:
$ @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$CONFIG
|
- On the list of displayed options, select:
Option 3 - Server components
|
- On the next list of displayed options, select:
Option 17 - SNMP (for Version 5.1-ECO 4)
Option 18 - SNMP (for Version 5.3 or later)
|
- On the next list of displayed options, select:
Option 3 - Enable & Start service on this node
|
- Exit from the configuration utility.
- Enter the following command after the DCL prompt:
$ TCPIP SHOW CONFIGURATION SNMP/FULL
|
The resulting display should be similar to the following:
SNMP Configuration . . . Community Type Address_list public Read 0.0.0.0
|
- If the "public" Community does not appear in the display,
enter the following command:
$ TCPIP SET CONFIG SNMP/COMMUNITY="public"/type=read
|
- Enter the following command again after the DCL prompt to display
the "public" Community:
$ TCPIP SHOW CONFIGURATION SNMP/FULL
|
- To enable Sets (setting disk/cpu/memory threshold) and SNMP Traps
on Management agents, refer to the User Guide, "Enabling Set and
SNMP Traps" Section.
- Restart the SNMP Server, after making any SNMP configuration
changes
- If you are running SNMP, you must stop and restart ESNMP. In
SYS$MANAGER, run the following:
$ @TCPIP$SNMP_SHUTDOWN.COM
$ @TCPIP$SNMP_STARTUP.COM
|
- If you are not running SNMP, you must start ESNMP. In SYS$MANAGER,
run the following:
$ @TCPIP$SNMP_STARTUP.COM
|
- Use the DCL command SHOW SYSTEM to ensure that SNMP is enabled on
the system. The system must display the TCP/IP processes, as shown
below:
TCPIP$SNMP_1
TCPIP$OS_MIBS
TCPIP$HR_MIB
|
If you do not see all of these processes, review your TCP/IP setup
and repeat Section 1, if necessary.
Note
If you use MultiNet and TCPware from Process Software, refer
to those sections of this document for information on setting
up the product to operate with the Management Agents. |

with the operating system and need not to be downloaded and
installed separately. |
- If you have Smart Array controller hardware present in your system
environment you may need to update the HP Array Configuration Utility
for Smart Array controllers (ACU-XE) to a version compatible with this
Management Agent kit. The updated ACU-XE utility and supporting documentation
may be obtained from the HP Array Configuration home page located at:
http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/products/acuxe/
|
- If upgrading from a previous version of Management Agent kit installation,
administrators are advised to record all WBEM$ADMIN rights identifier
assignments in the system UAF prior to installing the Insight Management
Agents for OpenVMS software. Installation of the kit will revoke these
rights identifiers unconditionally as part of the upgrade. The recorded
assignments can be used to re-enable access privileges to the state
prior to the Management Agent kit upgrade. Within the AUTHORIZE utility,
enter the following command to identify holders of the WBEM$ADMIN rights
identifier:
UAF> SHOW /IDENTIFIER/FULL WBEM$ADMIN
|
- Users upgrading from a prior version Management Agent kit are advised
to backup any customizations made to the WEBAGENT.INI file since this
file will be unconditionally replaced as part of the Management Agent
upgrade process. The complete file specification is:
SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM.WEB.IM.WEBAGENT]WEBAGENT.INI

-
Before installing the Management Kit please review the following configuration
scenarios to determine which best applies to your system software environment
- Standalone or Shared Media Cluster System Installation: You are installing
the Management Agents onto a standalone or a shared storage OpenVMS
cluster system environment. This is the most common installation type,
encompassing first-time installation, upgrade, and re-installation
of the Management Agents. Kit installation for this case follows the
sequence detailed in "installing the management agents for OpenVMS
software" section without modification.
- Non-shared Cluster System Disk Installation: You are installing the
Management Agents into a cluster configuration where two or more member
nodes are configured with system volumes resident on non-shared physical
media. If your system environment falls into this category note that
you need to repeat the installation sequence detailed in "installing
the management agents for OpenVMS software" section for each non-shared
system volume while logged into its resident OpenVMS environment.
- Installation of a New Cluster Member: You are installing the Management
Agents to a shared storage resident cluster member node that was not
present at the time the Management Agents were installed on other nodes
of the cluster. The installation procedure follows that described in "installing
the management agents for OpenVMS software" with the added requirement
that the installation of the Management Agents be conducted from one
of the nodes on which the Agents are already installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The installation procedure of the Management Agents for OpenVMS software
will vary depending on which installation scenario was identified in "prior
to installing the management agents software" section. It is important
to choose the appropriate installation procedure in order to ensure a
trouble free kit installation.
On an OpenVMS cluster sharing a common system disk, the agents need
not be installed separately on each node of the cluster. You must however
install the agents separately on all the nodes in which the system root
is not residing on a shared common system disk. For more information,
refer to the Appendix section.
To install the Management Agents for OpenVMS software, follow these
steps:
- Log
in to the OpenVMS system using the SYSTEM account. If you need to
use another privileged account, it must have the SETPRV privilege
or all the following privileges:
AUDIT, CMKRNL, DETACH, DIAGNOSE, LOG_IO, PHY_IO, NETMBX,OPER, PRMMBX, TMPMBX, SECURITY, SHARE, SYSLCK, SYSNAM, SYSPRV, WORLD
|
- Copy the HP Insight Management Agents kit and the Manifest file (For
Kit validation on OpenVMS V8.3 and above) to SYS$UPDATE:
HP-I64VMS-MGMTAGENTS-V0304-1-1.PCSI$COMPRESSED(Kit on I64)
HP-I64VMS-MGMTAGENTS-V0304-1-1.PCSI$COMPRESSED_ESW (Manifest file on I64)
or
HP-AXPVMS-MGMTAGENTS-V0304-1-1.PCSI$COMPRESSED(Kit on Alpha)
HP-AXPVMS-MGMTAGENTS-V0304-1-1.PCSI$COMPRESSED_ESW (Manifest file on Alpha)
|
Important
It is required to perform step#3 below prior to initiating
the PRODUCT INSTALL operation on the Management Agent kit.
Failure to adhere to this instruction could result in installation
errors and incomplete kit component file delivery. |
- Ensure that all Management Agent processes and other processes that
are dependent on the Management Agents (such as ACU-XE) have been stopped.
The Management Agents processes can be shutdown by executing the following
command. You may ignore any 'file not found' or non-existent process
messages resulting from executing this command.
$ MC SYSMAN SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER
SYSMAN > DO @SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM]WBEM$SHUTDOWN
SYSMAN > EXIT
|
To shutdown other processes dependent on the Management Agents,
refer to the respective product documentation. As an example, to
shut down the ACU-XE processes, execute the following DCL command
$ MC SYSMAN SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER
SYSMAN> DO @SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM.ACUXE]CPQ$ACUXE -stop
SYSMAN > EXIT
|
- To install the appropriate PCSI kit, enter the following DCL command:
$ PRODUCT INSTALL MGMTAGENTS
|
- The
file SYS$MANAGER:WBEM$LOGICALS.COM defines the logical names used
by the Management Agents for OpenVMS. This file lists all the logical
names supported by the agents, but the lines are commented out by
default. Using a text editor, open this file, uncomment the lines
containing the logical names you require, and edit the parameters
if required. The file includes comments that explain the significance
of each logical name.
- To use the DCL SHOW command application, define the following
logical name:
$
DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC WBEM$DCL TRUE
|
- To make your cluster name known to the cluster subagent, define
the following logical name:
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC
WBEM$CLUSTER_NODE clustername
|
The cluster name should correspond to a
valid TCP/IP cluster alias.
- To specify a warning temperature for your system, define the
following logical name:
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC
WBEM$WARNING_TEMP warningtemperature
|
The warning temperature corresponds to an integer value.
In case, you do not specify a value on an Alpha system. A default
value which is about 5° C below the shutdown temperature defined
for the system will be taken for DS20, DS25, ES40, ES45 and GS Alpha
systems.
Similarly, for an I64 system (OpenVMS Version 8.2-1 and above),
the maximum operational temperature on the system will be used as
the default value.
For all other hardware, you need to specify a value relevant to
your system by defining this logical name. If you do not specify
this value, the temperature threshold will display as 0 degree C,
and SNMP traps will not be generated. Refer to the documentation
that came with your system for the appropriate temperature threshold
value.
- To view environmental details (like temperature, fan, power sensor
information) on DS25, ES45, GS and later Alpha systems, define the
following logical name:
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC WBEM$PRIVATEER TRUE
|
On an Alpha system, to view environmental details (like temperature,
fan, power sensor information) on DS25, ES45 and later systems, you
must have the following:
- OpenVMS Version 7.3 or later
- Firmware revision Version 6.2 or later
To view environmental details on GS80 and later systems, you need
to have the following on your system:
- OpenVMS Version 7.3-1 or later
- Firmware revision Version 6.2 or later
To view environmental details on Next Generation Alpha Servers such
as GS1280, ES47 and ES80, you must be running OpenVMS V7.3-2 or later.
If your system meets or exceeds these requirements, you can enable
the display of the environmental details by defining the above logical
name.
Note
- You do not have to make these entries for older Alpha
hardware.
- Environmental details might not get displayed on older
Alpha hardware.
- If you define this logical name on OpenVMS Version 7.3
systems with older firmware revisions, the system might
crash.
|
For OpenVMS I64 system it is not required to define the logical.
The environmental details (temperature, fan, and power sensor information),
are supported from OpenVMS I64 V8.2-1 onwards.
Note
There is delay of 4-5 minutes in the display of environmental
details after starting Management Agents on I64 systems. |
- To run the Management Agents, enter the following commands:
$ SET DEFAULT SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM] $ @WBEM$STARTUP
|
Ensure that the Management agents are started using the SYSTEM
account or any account having the
privileges mentioned in Step
#1.
- To verify that the Management Agents are running, enter the following
DCL command:
SHOW SYSTEM/PROCESS=WBEM*

- Start the Management Agents for OpenVMS using the following command:
$ @SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM]WBEM$STARTUP.COM
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Smart Array (CPQIDA) SNMP agent can be configured to provide the
following functionality:
- Physical Drive Location: A physical drive attached to a Smart Array
controller under inspection from the Management Agent's Device Home
Page can be made to flash its LEDs via the "Identify Drive" function
on the drive's property page.
- Smart Array event notification via SNMP traps: The Smart Array agent
will generate SNMP traps on detection of certain events occurring in
the storage array environment provided by the controller.
Use the following configuration checklists in conjunction with the procedures
described elsewhere in the Management Agents and TCPIP documentation
to enable additional Smart Array agent functionality. Unless otherwise
specified, all host references in the checklists are to the system containing
the Smart Array controller hardware. Drive location and SNMP trap delivery
by the Smart Array agent can be jointly enabled by an appropriate combination
of SNMP and Management Agents configuration operations, which meet the
requirements, detailed below.
configuration for physical drive location
- A SNMP community name must be configured on the host and defined
with WRITE access. Keep in mind that SNMP community names are case
sensitive.
- The host SNMP configuration must include the SETS flag.
- If the configured community name supporting Smart Array agent functionality
is defined to be something other than the "public" community, the value
of the IDS_SNMP_WRITE_COMMUNITY variable in the file SYS$SYSROOT:[WBEM.WEB.IM.WEBAGENT]WEBAGENT.INI
must be changed to correspond to the configured SNMP community name.
- The default address list for a newly defined SNMP community provides
for unrestricted access by host IP address (i.e., 0.0.0.0). If the
configured SNMP community address list is further restricted from the
default, the host's IP loopback address (127.0.0.1) must be included
in the IP address list associated with the configured community name.
Other IP addresses may be included in the address list as appropriate.
- The Identify Drive function requires that a user login with account
credentials that include the WBEM$ADMIN rights identifier.
An example of a basic configuration permitting physical drive location
which employs the "public" community and an unrestricted host IP
access list can be established by executing the following two commands:
$ TCPIP SET CONFIGURATION SNMP /FLAG=SETS
$ TCPIP SET CONFIGURATION SNMP /COMMUNITY="public" /TYPE=WRITE
|
After making these configuration changes, it is necessary to restart
the SNMP service and Management Agents in the following order:
$ @SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM]WBEM$SHUTDOWN
$ @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$SNMP_SHUTDOWN
$ @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$SNMP_STARTUP
$ @SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM]WBEM$STARTUP
|
smart array SNMP trap configuration
The essential configuration steps to provide SNMP trap notification
of Smart Array events are:
- An SNMP community name must be configured on the host containing
the Smart Array controller hardware, which has been defined for TRAP
delivery. Keep in mind that SNMP community names are case sensitive
when configuring your network monitoring station.
- The SNMP community configured for trap delivery must have the host's
IP loopback address (127.0.0.1) configured as part of its defined IP
address list and ip_address where you want the trap message to be delivered
(Network Monitoring Station like IM7); for example, 16.0.0.23.
An example configuration for permitting of SNMP trap events generated
by the Smart Array agent to the "elmginkgo" community with a network
monitoring station address 16.0.0.23 can be established by executing
the following SNMP configuration commands:
$ TCPIP SET CONFIGURATION SNMP /COMMUNITY="elmginkgo" /TYPE=TRAP
$ TCPIP SET CONFIGURATION SNMP /COMMUNITY="elmginkgo" -
_$/ADDRESS=(127.0.0.1, 16.0.0.23)
|
After making these configuration changes, it is necessary to restart
the SNMP service and Management Agents in the following order:
$ @SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM]WBEM$SHUTDOWN
$ @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$SNMP_SHUTDOWN
$ @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$SNMP_STARTUP
$ @SYS$SPECIFIC:[WBEM]WBEM$STARTUP
