Package description The HP System Health Application and Insight Management Agents (hpasm) package is a collection of applications, SNMP protocol based agents, and tools which enables monitoring of fans, power supplies, temperature sensors and other management events. It contains the following drivers and agents:. Advanced Server Management application (Health Driver).
![]()
Integrated Management Log (IML) Viewer Application. Foundation Agents. Health agent (formerly in the Server Agents package). Standard equipment agent (formerly in the Server Agents package). Server peer agent (formerly in the Server Agents package). Storage agents hpasm package contains three different health driver modules hpasmd, hpasmxld and hpasmlited. These will automatically be selected depending on the HP ProLiant Advanced System Management (ASM) hardware available on the server.
NOTE: To determine the type of system management hardware installed, check the HP ProLiant server specifications located on the web site. If the server specification does not specifically state 'Integrated Lights-Out' for remote management, the server is configured with ASM hardware.
/opt/compaq/hpasmd/bin/hpasmd The 'hpasmd' application will automatically load on HP ProLiant servers that have either the Advanced System Management (ASM) or the legacy Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) hardware. /opt/compaq/hpasmd/bin/hpasmxld The 'hpasmxld' application will automatically load on HP ProLiant servers that have Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2) management controller and the 'hp-OpenIPMI' package is installed. The iLO 2 management controller contains an Intelligent Platform Interface (IPMI) version 2.0 Base Management Controller (BMC) that replaces the OS based software management functionality provided by the legacy 'hpasmd' application. The 'hpasmxld' application is also dependent on the 'hp-OpenIPMI' package. The 'hp-OpenIPMI' package is a 'GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE' (GPL) high performance enhancement of the IPMI device drivers that ship with standard Linux distributions. The hpasmxld package will be automatically selected by the hpasm initialization scripts ( /etc/init.d/hpasm and /opt/compaq/hpasmd/etc/hpasmd) if the hp-OpenIPMI package is installed and the iLO 2 management controller is present. The corresponding hp-OpenIPMI package is 'HP OpenIPMI Device Driver for Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 2.6 Kernel (i386 and AMD64/EM64T)'.
/opt/compaq/hpasmd/bin/hpasmlited The 'hpasmlited' application will automatically load on HP ProLiant servers that have the Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2) management controller and the 'hp-OpenIPMI' package is NOT installed. The hpasmlited application is designed to work with the standard IPMI device drivers that ship with the Linux distributions.
The IPMI device drivers that ship with the Linux distributions are not as efficient as the 'hp-OpenIPMI' drivers due to the constant polling method used for detecting system management events. The 'hpasmlited' application has the ability to log raw IPMI messages (as does the hp-OpenIPMI package) to the '/var/log/messages' file to assist with debugging IPMI BMC integration issues. NOTE: The 'hpasmxld' application is more efficient than the 'hpasmlited' application as a result of leveraging the high performance hp-OpenIPMI package, which includes support for IPMI 2.0 OEM message channels and messages. Prerequisites Debian package dependency files In order for the hpasm to install and work properly, you must install the required libraries or packages of the Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 2.6 Kernel (i386) or (AMD64/EM64T) distribution. The files listed below need to be explicitly selected and installed during or after the OS installation. For i386:. snmpd NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Agents.
libstdc2.10-glibc2.2 The GNU stdc library For AMD64/EM64T:. snmpd NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Agents. lib32z1-dev compression library 32 bit development Execute 'apt-get install ' and install the required library/package. Using 'hpasm' Login as the system administrator (root) or superuser (run su ), download the DEB file to a directory on your hard drive and change to that directory. Package description The hp Lights-Out Drivers and Agents includes the hp ProLiant Remote Insight Board driver, the hp ProLiant Integrated Lights Out Management driver, the RIB agent, the rack daemon, and the rack infrastructure daemon.
The RIB driver and the iLO driver are mutually exclusive and only one will be loaded when the package is started. Prerequisites hpasm package dependency Before installing hprsm package, you must install the corresponding HP System Health Application and Insight Management Agents (hpasm) for Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 2.6 Kernel (i386) or (AMD64) package. Using hprsm Login as the system administrator (root) or superuser (run su ), download the DEB file to a directory on your hard drive and change to that directory. To install the package, type: #dpkg -install The drivers and agents will be inserted immediately. If you happen to install hprsm without activating hpasm, you must run 'hpasm activate' before running '/opt/compaq/hprsm/hprsm activate'. NOTE: hprsm installation may require a rebuild depending on the kernel in use. Common reasons for a rebuild are errata, custom or updated kernels.
If a rebuild is required, you must have appropriate kernel sources and build environment available on the system. Package description The HP OpenIPMI device driver is a derivative work of the IPMI device driver that ships with the standard Linux kernel. This driver has been enhanced to include bug fixes in addition to supporting a PCI Base Management Controller (BMC) such as the HP Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2) management controller. The file, /opt/hp/hp-OpenIPMI/IPMI.txt, is also a derivative of the Documentation/IPMI.txt file included with the standard Linux kernel.
This file has been enhanced to document the additional parameters that may be passed to the ipmisi.ko driver. The hp-OpenIPMI device driver enhancements are expected to be incorporated into the OpenIPMI device driver and subsequently, the standard Linux kernel.
This driver may be used with other applications in addition to the HP Advanced System Management XL (hpasmxl) application. The hp-OpenIPMI package provides enhanced IPMI 2.0 compatibility and better performance than the standard IPMI driver that ships with the Debian distributions. HP recommends that the hp-OpenIPMI package be used on all ProLiant servers that have the HP Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2) management controller. The system specification located on the Hewlett-Packard Company web site will indicate if an iLO 2 controller is present in the system.
The iLO 2 controller is an integral part of all new HP ProLiant servers (300 series or better) delivered in 2006 and later. Installation Login as the system administrator (root) or superuser (run su ), download the DEB file to a directory on your hard drive and change to that directory. If a previous version of the hp-OpenIPMI package is installed, it must be removed before this package can be installed. Type 'dpkg r hp-OpenIPMI' and remove the previous version. To install the package, type: #dpkg -install The drivers will be installed to the /opt/hp/hp-OpenIPMI directory but not inserted. For HP ProLiant servers, the hpasm package will automatically load the hpOpenIPMI drivers if an Integrated Lights-Out 2 Management controller is present on the server.
NOTE: hp-OpenIPMI installation may require a rebuild depending on the kernel in use. Common reasons for a rebuild are errata, custom or updated kernels. If a rebuild is required, you must have appropriate kernel sources and build environment available on the system. You may execute the following commands before or after hp-OpenIPMI installation to get appropriate kernel sources and other required modules: #apt-get install alien rpm #apt-get install module-assistant #m-a prepare To get more information and help on hp-OpenIPMI, type: #man hp - OpenIPMI. Package description HP NIC Agents software contains the SNMP Network Interface Card Agents and related files that gather critical HP ProLiant NIC hardware and software information to help IT administrators manage and troubleshoot their systems.
Prerequisites The HP Server Management Application and Agents (hpasm) package must be installed before installing the NIC Agents for Servers. Debian packages dependency files In order for the cmanic to install and work properly, you must run the following commands and install the required libraries or packages of the Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 2.6 Kernel (i386 and AMD64/EM64T) distribution after the OS installation. # apt-get install ethtool # apt-get install snmpd Using cmanic Login as the system administrator (root) or superuser (run su ), download the DEB to a directory on your hard drive and change to that directory.
