Prerequisites and Preregistration Notes
Before registering any UNIX or Linux computers, check the following list of prerequisites and preregistration notes.
- You must have the SNMP daemon or service installed on your computer to enable CA SRM to automatically discover UNIX computers.
- CA SRM does not collect Domain Owners from NIS environments because it regards all owners in NIS environments as local.
- CA SRM reports on raw partitions (slices on which no file system is mounted) on all supported UNIX platforms.
- Daemon installation is available on all supported versions of AIX, Solaris, HP-UX 11.x, and Linux versions 2.4.3 and above. Inetd installation is available only on AIX and HP-UX 11.x.
- The Solaris agent always runs as a daemon.
- Volume Statistics on Veritas File Systems are not supported for volumes with layout version 6. This version is the default for Veritas VM 4.1. To find out the layout version of a volume, use the following Unix command:
fstyp
- Ensure your Solaris system has all of the required operating system patches installed. If you are running Solaris 8 or 9, the patch requirements are as follows:
Patches for Solaris 8
- Solaris 8 SPARC 108434-17, 108435-17
- 108434-17: SunOS 5.9: 32 bit Shared Library Patch for c++
- 108435-17: SunOS 5.9: 64 bit Shared Library Patch for c++
Patches for Solaris 9
- Solaris 9 SPARC 111711-11, 111712-11
- 111711-11: SunOS 5.9: 32 bit Shared Library Patch for c++
- 111712-11: SunOS 5.9: 64 bit Shared Library Patch for c++
- Ensure your HP-UX or Solaris or AIX computers have SSH installed to have secured mode of file transfer in your registered UNIX computers.
Note: Initially, the registered UNIX computers try to transfer the files in a secured mode using the secured file transfer protocol (SFTP and SCP). If the secured mode is disabled, then using the unsecured mode (FTP), the files are transferred and pushed to the registered UNIX or Linux computers.
- The following SRM supported versions of UNIX or LINUX do not have SSH by default that disables the secured mode of files transfer. You must explicitly install the OpenSSH suite on the following versions of Unix or Linux computers to enable secured file transfer.
- HP HPUX - 11iv1 (PA-RISC 32bit) 11.11
- Sun Solaris - (SPARC 32bit) 8
- IBM AIX - 32-bit 5.3
- IBM AIX - 32-bit 6.1
