Statistics Collection Manager Stand-alone Installation Procedures

Statistics Collection Manager Stand-alone Installation Procedures

This chapter guides you through a first time installation of the Stand-alone version of the Cisco Statistics Collection Manager (SCM) for Cisco WAN Manager (CWM).


Note Prior to installing the Stand-alone version of SCM for Cisco WAN Manager 9.2, you must have Hewlett Packard AIX 4.2 installed on your workstation.

You can install the SCM Stand-alone software for CWM 9.2 from either a locally attached or remote CD-ROM drive. When you invoke the installation script from a remote drive, the remote and local platforms do not have to be running the same operating system. Following is a list of the tasks you must perform to load and mount the CD-ROM, install the SCM Stand-alone for CWM 9.2 and associated software, configure the various product components, and start the SCM Stand-alone for CWM 9.2.


Note All processes referring to /usr/users are killed as part of the installation process. Therefore, do not login as user root when you are already logged in as user svplus. Instead, logout first, then login as user root.

    1. Load the CD into the CD-ROM drive. See "Loading the CD-ROM".

    2. Mount the CD-ROM drive. See "Mounting the Locally Attached CD-ROM Drive".

    3. Export the CD-ROM drive to make it available to other machines if you are installing the software on a remote machine. See "Mounting a Remotely Attached CD-ROM Drive".

Loading the CD-ROM

The CWM 9.2 software can be loaded from either a locally attached or remote CD-ROM drive.

Step 1 Remove the CWM 9.2 CD from the case and insert it into the CD-ROM drive.

Step 2 Log in as the super user root:
host$ su
host$ password: <su root password>
host#

Mounting the Locally Attached CD-ROM Drive

The mount instructions for a locally attached CD-ROM drive for the AIX operating system are provided in this section.

Step 1 If a CD-ROM drive mount point does not exist, create one as follows:
host# mkdir /cdrom


Note If the CD-ROM drive is already mounted, the following mount step is not necessary.

Step 2 Mount the CD-ROM drive on the mount point:
host# /etc/mount -v'cdrfs' -f'' -r'' /dev/cd0 /cdrom

Mounting a Remotely Attached CD-ROM Drive

The mount instructions for a remotely attached CD-ROM drive are provided in this section. The CD-ROM drive must be mounted on the remote system (following the steps provided in the previous section), the mount point must then be exported, and it must be mounted on the machine where the CWM 9.2 software is to be installed.

Exporting the CD-ROM Drive from a Remote AIX Host

Prior to mounting the CD-ROM drive from the remote host, the device must be made accessible. The following procedures are performed on the remote system (unless otherwise noted) where the CD-ROM drive is attached:

Step 1 If the following entry does not exist in the /etc/exports file, append it to the file. This allows the remote system to export the /cdrom mount point.
/cdrom -ro

Step 2 Export the /cdrom directory from the remote host:
host# /usr/sbin/exportfs /cdrom

Step 3 Verify the remote host is exporting the mount point. The listing produced by this command should include the /cdrom mount point.
host# /usr/sbin/exportfs

Step 4 On the client machine, verify the mount point on the remote host:
host# /usr/sbin/showmount -e <remote_server> | grep cdrom

where <remote_server> is the name of the remote host where the CD-ROM drive is mounted.

Step 5 On the client machine, mount the remotely installed CD-ROM device:
host# /usr/sbin/mount <remote_server>: /cdrom <local_mount_point>

where <local_mount_point> is the mount point on the client machine for the remotely mounted CD-ROM drive.

Installing SCM Stand-alone for Cisco WAN Manager

The stand-alone version of CWM Statistics Collection Manager (SCM) is provided on a separate CD with the CWM product package. Install the SCM application on workstations not running CWM.

Caution If you install the SCM standalone application on a workstation running CWM, some of the files in the /usr/users/svplus directory will be overwritten.

User interaction during installation is not required. This application installs in the /opt directory and requires at least 20 MB of disk space.

To install CWM SCM, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Insert the CWM SCM CD-ROM into the drive.

Step 2 Log in as root, if you have not already done so.

Step 3 Mount the CD-ROM drive. If you are using a locally attached CD-ROM drive, see "Mounting the Locally Attached CD-ROM Drive." If you are using a remotely attached CD-ROM drive, see "Mounting a Remotely Attached CD-ROM Drive."

Step 4 Change to the CD directory, for example /cdrom.

Step 5 Enter ./setup.sh <Return>.

Running scm_config

Next, as user root, you must invoke the scm_config program to extract other software packages.

Step 1 At the command line prompt, type:
host# cd /var/SCMconfig

Step 2 Invoke the installer script, type:
host# ./scm_config
