Installing & Running the Array Diagnostic Utility
--------------------------------------------------------------

 Installation:
    ADU requires "HP's System Management Homepage" installed. If you have not
    installed "HP's System Management Homepage", please download and install 
    it from hp.com first.
    ADU is distributed using Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) packages. 
    If there is an older version of ADU installed on the system, 
	please use "rpm -e hpadu" to remove it first. Use "rpm -i <file name>" 
	to install the service.
    Please type "man rpm" for other details regarding RPM.
    The software resides in /opt/hp/hpadu and the executable 
    name is hpadu which is located in /usr/sbin.

  Run the ADU server:
  
    Make sure that you have gone through the following checklist:
    . Only run ADU on servers that are on a local intranet
      or a secure network.
    . Secure the management port (port 2301) on your network.
    . You run cpqacuxe as root.

    To start the server:
    If /usr/sbin is already added in your path, just type:
    "hpadu -start" for local and remote access. 


  Run the ADU client:
    1. Open your browser (Netscape Navigator 6.2 or Mozilla 1.0.2 on Linux or 
    Internet Explorer 5.5 or above on Microsoft Windows 2000.

    2. Type "http://SERVERNAME:2301" into the url field. The servername should 
       be the IP address or server name of the host on which the ACU server
       is running.

    3. You are required to log in as an Administrator in "HP's System Management 
       Homepage". Please refer to the online help of the System Management Homepage 
       for the account management details.
    4. Click the ACU button near the bottom of the screen.

  Exiting ADU:
    1. To exit the ADU client, close the browser by clicking on the Exit link.
    2. To exit the ADU server, type "hpadu -stop".

  Run the ADU CLI application:
    ADU can run from the command-line to create a report text file.
    If /usr/sbin is already added in your path, just type:
    "hpaducli -f [filename]" (filename being the file name the adu report 
    text file will be written to.)
    For other command-line options just type:
    "hpaducli --help"
