Sun StorageTek Common Array Manager Software Installation Guide

CHAPTER

Installing the Common Array Manager Software

This chapter describes how to install the management software using a graphical interface or the command line interface. It contains the following sections: Installation and Upgrading to a New Release About the Software Installation CD Installing From a Downloaded File Checking the Installation Requirements Locating Files and Logs Installation Command Summary Installing on Solaris OS Installing on Linux OS Installing on Windows OS Uninstalling Software Installation Troubleshooting Next Steps

Installation and Upgrading to a New Release

This chapter describes the installation of Common Array Manager on a new management host. These procedures apply equally to installing a new release of the software on a host already running an earlier version of the software. When you proceed to upgrade an existing management host to a new release, you run the install program exactly as described for a fresh installation. The install script searches to see if there is an earlier version of the software present on the system and if so, updates and adds only those files that require change. Existing settings and other data are preserved, and after the upgrade normal operations can resume. It is not necessary to manually run an uninstall or re-register devices, redefine users, or reset other system parameters. Any release-specific considerations, including those pertaining to upgrades, are provided in the Sun StorageTek Common Array Manager Software Release Notes.

For the Windows CLI, go to Step 3 of To Install the Software Using a CLI (Windows):. 4. Begin the Windows installation procedure at the Review the README.txt file step.

Checking the Installation Requirements

Before installing the management software, do the following: The README.txt file on the CD contains the latest information and instructions for the software installation CD. Before unpacking the compressed installation files on the target host, be sure to review the README.txt file on the CD. Read the entire installation instructions. Locate the license certificates for premium features sent to the contact at the array site. Complete the array hardware installation, including the assigning of IP addresses to the controller. For more information, see Appendix B Configuring the IP Address of the Array Controllers. Check the installation space requirements. Before unpacking the compressed installation files, check that the installation space requirements are met, as listed in TABLE 2-1. (The installation script verifies these requirements. If a requirement is not met, the script informs you.)

TABLE 2-1, Installation Space Requirements, shows the amount of directory space, in megabytes, required for the program directories on Solaris, Linux, and Windows hosts.

Note - These space requirements are for a full installation, including Java Web Console. If Java Web Console Version 3.0.2
and JDK are pre-installed on the system, the required space is smaller by approximately 150 MB. On Solaris this is /opt; on Linux, this is /usr; on Windows this is on the system drive.

Make sure the following user names are defined on your systems: root (or an administrative user for Windows) storage guest These user names are not added to the system by the CAM installer. They are default users with storage and guest roles and are required to be present in order to use them to log into CAM. The storage and guest roles are defined in CAM. The storage role has write privileges in CAM, while the guest role has read-only privileges. By default, the root user (or the administrative user in Windows) has the storage role, the storage user has the storage role, and the guest user has the guest role. Additional users should be added to the storage or guest roles by using the CAM User Management interface. The password for these accounts is the password for the user on the operating system. For more information, see Adding Users And Assigning Roles. Check to see if previous versions of the management software are installed. Solaris and Linux: Uninstall all versions of the Sun StorageTek Configuration Service management software prior to the Common Array Manager 5.0.1.1 release. Later versions do not have to be removed. Windows: Uninstall all versions of the Sun StorageTek Configuration Service management software prior to the Common Array Manager 5.1.0.10 release. Later versions do not have to be removed. Check that previously installed services, such as the Storage Automated Diagnostic Environment, are not performing a function on the array over the Ethernet port of either array controller. Check RAM Memory Requirements

TABLE 2-6, Common Array Manager Software Installation Commands, shows the commands you need to install the management software and upgrade the firmware using either a GUI wizard or a CLI script.

Installing From a Remote Terminal (Solaris and Linux)

You can install software by using telnet from a remote terminal to the server that will perform as the actual management host. If you are planning to use the graphic installation wizard in Solaris or Linux, you must set the X Windows DISPLAY setting so the wizard pages will display locally on the remote terminal. The set up will depend on the shell you use. The following shows an example of setting up the local terminal display: 1. On the local terminal, enter the following to enable display from the Common Array Manager host: $ xhost + 2. Telnet to the Common Array Manager host (where the Common Array Manager Installation CD or download file is located, and where the Common Array Manager will be installed): telnet x.x.x.x 3. After logging in, switch user to root: $ su Password: 4. Enter and export the following DISPLAY variable:

# DISPLAY=mgt_server.your_net:0.0; export DISPLAY where mgt_server.your_net is the IP address of the local terminal from which you are telnetting. 5. Confirm that the remote display is working by entering the following command to see if it displays to your local terminal: /usr/openwin/bin/xclock

Installing on Solaris OS
The following covers installing the management software on a host running the Solaris Operating System as described in the following sections: Using a GUI to Install on the Solaris OS Using a CLI to Install on the Solaris OS

Using a GUI to Install on the Solaris OS

You can use a wizard to install the Common Array Manager software on a SPARC, X86,or X64 system running the Solaris Operating System. The array installation files and installers are provided in a compressed .bin file on the CD. The process unpacks the contents of the file on the host and then proceeds with the installation. Before you continue, check that all of the requirements are met, as listed in Check the installation space requirements..

Note - For Solaris 10, do not attempt to run the Lockhart setup script when logged into the local zone. (The CAM installation
prevents this.) Either install Lockart into a whole root zone or install/upgrade Lockhart in the global zone before installing CAM into the local zone.

You can install from a CD or from a download of the install files from the Sun Software Download Center. If installing from a download, run tar -xvf filename to unpack the file, then change to the Host_Software_6.x.x.x directory and begin the following procedure at Step 3.

To Install the Software (Solaris):

1. Log in to the management host Solaris OS as root. 2. Insert the host software installation CD into a drive on the management host. If the compressed installation files do not appear in a directory window: a. Change to the /cdrom/cdrom0 directory:
