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. (NOTE: If only the ADU CLI application is required,
the dependency on the System Management Homepage can be overridden by the
following command: rpm -i --nodeps hpadu-xxx.rpm
ADU is distributed using Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) packages and .deb
for debian.
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.
NOTE: On Debain systems, a ".deb" package file can be installed using the
"dpkg -i hpadu.xxx.deb" command. "dpkg -r hpadu" can be used to remove
the package.
The software resides in /opt/hp/hpadu and the executable
name is hpadu which is located in /usr/sbin.
For Debian 64 bit.
dpkg -i --force-architecture <file name>. ADU requires the
libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 32 bit package to be installed.
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 1.5 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"
Additional Notes
----------------
1. On Debian 64bit, if hpadu is running and the ADU web page is up, you must
exit the ADU web page before running "hpadu -stop" in a command line. In general,
you should exit an applications web page before stopping the daemon process.
2. On Debian 64bit, if after 10 seconds the "hpadu -stop" command hangs, use "CTRL-C"
to interrupt the command, and then rerun "hpadu -stop" to finish cleanup before
attempting to run hpadu again.
