UDA 1.4 and Installing HP SIM Agents

Hi Guys,

I have an issue installing this via kickstart. I am running the steps in Mike's RTFM website which works fine upto a point after which it fails.

Its failing on this:

  1. Clean up after using NFS on the UDA

  2. Unmount udasource, remove mounting point, stop services, close firewall

cd /

umount /tmp/udasource

rmdir /tmp/udasource

rm service nfs stop && service portmap stop

esxcfg-firewall -d nfsClient

The error i keep getting is:

rm: cannot lstat `service': No such file or directory

rm: cannot lstat `nfs': No such file or directory

rm: cannot lstat `stop': No such file or directory

Any ideas what i might be doing wrong?

Also what is the best way of uninstalling this so i could try again from fresh and see if the code works. When i try it again i get:

Verifying RPM packages:

Verifying hp-OpenIPMI-8.0.0-113.vmware30.i386.rpm....OK

Verifying hpasm-8.0.0-173.vmware30.i386.rpm....OK

Verifying hprsm-8.0.0-169.vmware30.i386.rpm....OK

Verifying hpsmh-2.1.11-197.vmware.i386.rpm....OK

Checking for previously installed agents....FAILED

Some agents have already been installed. Please remove the previous installation. -- how do i remove this.

Finally is there a easier, cleaner way of doing this.

Thanks

waghekk,

the errors comes from the line 'rm service nfs stop && service portmap stop'

You're trying to delete 3 file ( service, nfs and stop) which aren't there..

try this:

service nfs stop && service portmap stop

this means: stop de service nfs AND stop de service portmap on the server

somehow rm has appeared in front of the line Smiley Wink

succes!!

for you're second question:

try:

./installvm810.sh --uninstall

or whatever version you're running (we're running 8.10)

regards,

Henry T.
