2.2.3 Installation [Linux] [VMware] [Xen] [KVM] [OVM for x86 2.2]

This section explains the procedure for agent installation.

Before installation, check if "2.2.1 Preparations" have been performed.

  1. Log in to the system as the OS administrator (root).

    Boot the managed server that this product is to be installed on in multi-user mode, and then log in to the system using root.

    [Xen] [KVM]
    Log in from the console.

  2. Set the first Resource Orchestrator DVD-ROM.

  3. Execute the following command to mount the DVD-ROM. If the auto-mounting daemon (autofs) is used for starting the mounted DVD-ROM, the installer will fail to start due to its "noexec" mount option.

    # mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/hdc DVD-ROM_mount_point <RETURN>

  4. Execute the agent installation command (RcSetup.sh).

    # cd DVD-ROM_mount_point <RETURN>
    # ./RcSetup.sh <RETURN>

  5. Select "4. Agent(Cloud Edition) installation".

  6. Perform installation according to the installer's interactive instructions.

  7. Enter the host name or IP address of a connected admin server.

Note

  • Corrective Action for Installation Failure

    In the event of installation failure, restart and then log in as the user that performed the installation, and perform uninstallation following the uninstallation procedure.
    After that, remove the cause of the failure referring to the meaning of the output message and the suggested corrective actions, and then perform installation again.

  • Nullifying Firewall Settings for Ports to be used by Resource Orchestrator

    When installing Resource Orchestrator on systems with active firewalls, in order to enable the manager to communicate with agents correctly, disable the firewall settings for the port numbers to be used for communication.

    Example

    [VMware]

    # /usr/sbin/esxcfg-firewall -openPort 23458,tcp,in,"nfagent" <RETURN>

    For the port numbers used by Resource Orchestrator and required software, refer to "Appendix A Port List" in the "Design Guide CE".
    However, when port numbers have been changed by editing the services file during installation of Resource Orchestrator, replace the default port numbers listed in "Appendix A Port List" in the "Design Guide CE" with the port numbers changed to during installation.

  • When Installation was Performed without using the Console [Xen] [KVM]

    When installation is performed by logging in from somewhere other than the console, the network connection will be severed before installation is complete, and it is not possible to confirm if the installation was successful. Log in from the console and restart the managed server. After restarting the server, follow the procedure in "Corrective Action for Installation Failure" and perform installation again.

  • Uninstall the Related Services

    When installing ServerView Deployment Manager after Resource Orchestrator has been installed, or using ServerView Deployment Manager in the same subnet, it is necessary to uninstall the related services.

    For the method for uninstalling the related services, please refer to "5.1 deployment_service_uninstall" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".
