Install HP Systems Manager on Xen Server 5.5

Installing HP Systems Management Homepage and the Disk Diagnostics / Configuration Plug ins on a Citrix Xen server 5.5 – Bronson Magnan

1. Need to temporarily switch to the CentOS Base Repo, and away from the Citrix Repo
2. cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
3. vi CentOS-Base.repo
4. Change “enabled=0” to “enabled=1” this turns on this repo
5. Change “gpgcheck=1” to “gpgcheck=0” this turns on signature checking for the repo, the key site that is listed in the repo does not exit anymore.
6. vi Citrix.repo
7. Change “enabled=1” to “enabled=0”
8. yum install compat-libstdc++-296.i386
9. Turn the CentOS repo off and the Citrix repo back on by reversing the changes in step 1 to 7.
10. Download the following from the HP system management download page to /usr/src 
11. cpqacuxe-8.35-7.0.noarch.rpm – the array config utility
12. hpacucli-8.35-7.0.noarch.rpm – the array config utility CLI
13. hpadu-8.26-1.noarch.rpm – the array diagnostics utility
14. hpsmh-6.1.0-103.i386.rpm – the systems manager homepage
15. Trick the script into thinking that this is RHEL instead of CentOS.
16. cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/xen-release – Making a backup copy.
17. Vi /etc/redhat-release and change the line: "XenServer release xxxxxxxxx (xenenterprise)" To: "Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 1)"
18. Save the changes and close the file
19. rpm –ihv hpsmh-6.1.0-103.i386.rpm – install the system manager homepage.
20. rpm –ihv hpadu-8.26-1.noarch.rpm – install the array diagnostics web app.
21. rpm –ihv cpqacuxe-8.35-7.0.noarch.rpm – install the array configuration web app.
22. rpm –ihv hpacucli-8.35-7.0.noarch.rpm – install the array configuration CLI.
23. Reverse the changes done in step 15.
24. mv /etc/xen-release /etc/redhat-release
25. Edit the firewall ruleset and restart the firewall service.
26. vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables
27. Insert the following line before the deny all statement “-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT –m state --state NEW –m tcp –p tcp --dport 2381 –j ACCEPT”
28. Save and close the file
29. service iptables restart
30. Patch the diagnostics utility to work on Xen 5.5
31. cp /usr/sbin/hpadu /usr/sbin/hpadu.bkp
32. chmod 700 /usr/sbin/hpadu
33. Now edit hpadu, locate the string "LD_ASSUME". I have to modify the complete section as follows (comment out every line by overwriting the first char)
34. # 1. Don't set LD_ASSUME_KERNEL on SLES 10, RHEL5, or Debian 2.6
35. #f
36. #hen
37. #xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1
38. #i
39. Start the management services.
40. service hpsmhd restart
41. hpadu –start
42. cpqacuxe –R
