This section provides information on how to setup the gWLM agent 4.0 on your OpenVMS system.
You can install the gWLM agent for OpenVMS on systems whose workloads you want to manage.
1. Download the gWLM agent version 4.0 on to the OpenVMS system from the following link:
http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/integrity/integrity_gwlm.html
2. If needed, download unzip.exe OpenVMS freeware application to the OpenVMS system from the
following link: http://h71000.www7.hp.com/freeware/ia-64_images/unzip.exe
3. Define the symbol ‘unzip’, as shown in this example:
$ unzip :== $SYS$SYSDEVICE:[GWLM40KIT]unzip.exe
4. Extract the downloaded ZIP file (HP-I64VMS-GWLM-V0400-8-1.ZIP) using unzip.exe.
$ set def SYS$SYSDEVICE:[GWLM40KIT]$$ unzip HP-I64VMS-GWLM-V0400-8-1.ZIPArchive: SYS$SYSDEVICE:[GWLM40KIT]HP-I64VMS-GWLM-V0400-8-1.ZIP;1
inflating: HP-I64VMS-GWLM-V0400-8-1.PCSI$COMPRESSED_ESWinflating: HP-I64VMS-GWLM-V0400-8-1.PCSI$COMPRESSED
$
5. Install the gWLM Agent as below:
$ product install gwlm/source=SYS$SYSDEVICE:[GWLM40KIT]
The gWLM agent gets installed on OpenVMS in the sys$sysroot:[gwlm] directory.
6. Start the gWLM Agent as below:
$ @sys$startup:gwlm$startup
7. To use gWLM foreign commands (gwlmsslconfig, gwlmimportkey, gwlmexportkey, gwlmplace,
gwlmsend, gwlmstatus) on the OpenVMS managed node, execute the following command:
$ @sys$sysroot:[gwlm.bin]gwlm$env get_commands
To use gWLM foreign commands in sys$sysroot:[gwlm] directory, users must have read and write
access to the files.
8. The discovery process would encounter an error if there is a variation in the host name
configuration between the CMS and the managed hosts, see the following example:
C:\> gwlm discover test.zko.dec.comThe IP address 1.1.1.1 resolves to two different fully qualified domain
names.The fully qualified domain name on the managed node is test; the CMS
has the managed node’s fully qualified domain name as test.zko.dec.com.
29
Please correct and retry. Please re-enter the systems.
The following example deals with the problem on the managed node byproviding the managed node with a fully qualified domain name definition:
TCPIP> show host testLOCAL databaseHost address Host name1.1.1.1 test, TESTTCPIP> set nohost "test"TCPIP> set host "test.zko.dec.com"/address=1.1.1.1/alias=("test",test)TCPIP> show host testLOCAL databaseHost address Host name1.1.1.1 test.zko.dec.com, test, TEST
9. The following are the guidelines for composing application workload definitions:
You can compose an application workload definition using UNIX-style application
pathnames. For example:
/sys$common/java$142/bin/java$java.exe/sys$system/vms*.exe/RED$DKA0/SYS0/SYSCOMMON/JAVA$142/BIN/JAVA$JAVA.EXE
You can use the wildcard characters, ‘‘%’’ and ‘‘*’’. ‘‘Application Alternate Names’’ are
not necessary on OpenVMS; do not specify them.
You can use OpenVMS-style pathnames for individual, non-wildcarded executable. For
example:
RED$DKA0:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.JAVA$142.BIN]JAVA$JAVA.EXESYS$SYSTEM:VMSHELP.EXESYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]VMSHELP.EXE
In addition, the pathname must start with a ‘‘/’’ character; for example:/RED$DKA0:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.JAVA$142.BIN]JAVA$JAVA.EXE/SYS$SYSTEM:VMSHELP.EXE/SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]VMSHELP.EXE
You can use OpenVMS user account names. For example:
o System
o Guest
Updating SSH Configuration on OpenVMS systems
This section applies only if the SSH Server service is configured and running on OpenVMS systems
that are to be managed through ID–VSE. The procedure in this section provides a workaround to a
known issue with the discovery of OpenVMS systems (running SSH server service) in HP SIM.
Follow the steps below on each OpenVMS system (native Integrity and HPVM guest) that has the SSH
server service running:
1. Determine the list of usernames from the global and system-specific credentials used for discovery
purposes in the HP SIM server.
In this example, there are two global credentials (system and root – which were specified during
the HP Insight Software installation), and no system-specific credentials.
2. For each username determined in step 1 above, modify the SSH configuration file
(SYS$SYSDEVICE:[TCPIP$SSH.SSH2]SSHD2_CONFIG) to prevent the SSH login of the username
from the HP SIM server. To do this, add a line with the following syntax to this file:
DenyUsers username_to_deny@ip_address_of_SIM_server
In this example, the following two lines are added to the SSH configuration file:DenyUsers [email protected] [email protected]
30
These lines prevent the usernames system and root from performing an SSH login into the
OpenVMS system, from an HP SIM server address of 2.2.2.2.
Discovering an HP-UX VM Host and its OpenVMS guests on
HP SIM
This section describes how to discover a HP-UX VM Host and its OpenVMS V8.4 guests on HP SIM.
NOTE: In the example below, HP SIM already has global credentials for WBEM discovery of the HP-
UX VM Host and its OpenVMS V8.4 guests.
1. Access HP SIM on the Windows CMS via the following website:
http://<cms-network-address>:280/
Login with the Administrator local account credentials.
2. In HP SIM, select Options menu ->Discovery.
3. On the next page, click New…. Under the resulting New Discovery section, select ‘Discovery a
single system’. Enter a discovery task name in the ‘Name:’ text box, and the network address of
the HP-UX VM Host system to be discovered. Under Schedule, uncheck the ‘Automatically execute
discovery’ check box. Click Save.
31
4. After the discovery task has been saved, select the newly created discovery task on the Discovery
page and click Run Now. HP SIM will now attempt to discover the OpenVMS system. Click
View Task Results… to see the progress of the discovery.
5. After the HP-UX VM Host discovery has been completed successfully, HP SIM automatically
performs discovery of the OpenVMS V8.4 guests running on the VM Host. This may take some
minutes.
Click ‘All Systems’. This shows the HP-UX VM Host (mgtbl2), and its OpenVMS V8.4 Integrity
VM guests (guest2 and guest3).

Updating HP SIM System Properties for OpenVMS Systems
The steps in this section must be performed for all OpenVMS systems (native Integrity and Integrity VM
guest) that are discovered in HP SIM. It must be performed before attempting to use ID–VSE features
with OpenVMS systems.
1. Click the OpenVMS system in the ‘All Systems’ table.
2. The detailed view of the selected system is displayed. Click the Tools & Links tab.
33
3. Click Edit System Properties under HP System Insight Manager pages.
4. On the Edit System Properties page, set the value for the parameter Operating system for tool
filtering to HP OpenVMS. Click OK to save the parameter change.
34
Launching the ID–VSE Virtualization Manager
To launch ID–VSE Virtualization Manager from HP SIM, use one of the following ways:
Select Tools menu -> VSE Management….
Select All VSE Resources in Systems and Event Collections.
