Installing the HP sim management agents on VMware ESX 3.5.
We need two tools to get started, one is WINSCP and the other is Putty.
First you need to download the sources from HP.
HPsim 8.30 for ESX3.5
Than use WinSCP to connect to you ESX host. Once connected browse to the ./tmp folder in the root. Copy the .TGZ file from your computer to the ./tmp file on the esc host.
Connect to the console with Putty.
Probably the Root is prohibited to logon ussing ssh. So login as sshuser. Once you are logged in, you an change to Root credentials by entering "SU".
Now you in the directory "SSHUSER", now you have to browse back to the ./TMP folder. If you are not sure which commands to use, you can use "cd .." or "cd /tmp" to browse to the tmp folder.
Once you are at the ./tmp, you unzipp the TGZ file.
tar -zxvf hpmgmt-8.1.1-vmware3x.tar file. Once these files have been uncompressed you will see that the folder HPmgmt is created in the TMP folder. In this HPmgmt folder you will find another folder which carries the names of the version of the agents you are about to install. Which is in my case 830.
In the next step you bowse to the version folder (830). To view the content of that folder, type ls. Another important note to make here is that capitals do count when addressing files in Linux.
You will find following files in the version folder:
> ..
200.621 hp-OpenIPMI-8.3.0-69.vmware30.i386.rpm
5.575.138 hpasm-8.3.0-149.vmware30.i386.rpm
3.614 hpmgmt.conf.example
298.491 hprsm-8.3.0-146.vmware30.i386.rpm
14.498.438 hpsmh-3.0.2-77.i386.rpm
37.470 installvm830.sh
1.140 LICENSE.txt
4.279 PreInstall_Setup.sh
13.149 README.txt
77 restore_file_info.sh
20.632.417 bytes
now we need to run following command on the two installation files:
type "chmod 777 ./PreInstall_Setup.sh" and press enter.
type "chmod 777 ./installvm830.sh" and press enter.
now it is time to start the preinstall script:
type "./PreInstall_Setup.sh" and press enter.
the console prompts you, that if you continue the server will reboot in 10 seconds. press y to confirm.
Install the agents:
type "./installvm830.sh --install" and press enter.
The agent installation wizard kick off and will prompt you for the necsesarry info along the way. After the installation is finnished you still need to configure the snmpd.conf file. This can be done through the HPSIM homepage of the system (https://ipofesxnode:2381).
If you do not have a HPSim server and only use the local managemnt homepage following config will do:

HP Advanced Server Management configuration:
Welcome to the hp System Health Application and Insight Management Agent(hpasm)
package installation. This package contains the hp Advanced Server Management
Application(hpasmd) and hp's SNMP agents. This package is intended to only
function on hp servers with either the ProLiant ASM (0x0E11A0F2) ASIC or the
ProLiant iLO Advanced Server Management (0x0E11B203) ASIC.
Do you wish to continue?
==============================================================================
NOTE: Your SNMP stack can load the 32-bit hp ProLiant Management Extension.
Problems may result from using your distribution's SNMP stack.
See hp Documentation (HOWTO, agent manual) for more details.
==============================================================================
Press the Enter key to continue...
The startup scripts in this package also control the loading of modules in
this and other hp management packages(i.e. hprsm). Some of those management
modules are distributed under a non-GPL license. When these non-GPLed modules
are loaded the kernel's tainted flag (see /proc/sys/kernel/tainted) may be
set. If you choose not to load them, some management functionality will be lost.
Do you want to load the hp modules even though they may "taint"
your kernel?
This package contains data gathering agents that provide data to clients via
SNMP. This SNMP data may be used by other hp management software. If you
choose not to start these agents that data may not be provided. Answer 'y'
to this question to start the base set of agents. You will be prompted for
the more specialized Storage and Performance agents.

This configuration script will configure SNMP to integrate with the HP SIM and
the HP System Management Homepage. The HPASM can also exist in a more secure
SNMP environment (e.g. VACM) that you have previously configured. See the
hpasm(4) man page for specific details on how to configure the VACM entries
in the 'snmpd.conf' file. You may press

This configuration script will add user 'hpsmh' and group 'hpsmh' to integrate with the HP SIM and the
