The HP OpenView Console/System Manager (OVC/SysMgr) product uses a client/server design that includes software that resides on both the PC and HP e3000. The software component on the HP e3000 is MPE/iX version independent.

You will receive special patch updates when new OVC/SysMgr's HP e3000 software is released.

  1. Please use standard patch procedures to update your OVC/SysMgr HP e3000 management node.

  2. After this is done, use the remote software installation scripts on your OVC/SysMgr PC to upgrade your HP e3000 managed nodes.

The OpenView Console product provides a subset of the full System Manager's solution. It only manages a single HP e3000 machine, so the managed node is also the management node.

The System Manager product manages multiple HP e3000s on the network and powerful WRQ Reflection scripts allow you to update all the remote nodes automatically.

If you are using OpenView Console to manage a single MPE/iX machine:

  1. Log on to the OVC PC.

  2. Double-click the program icon.

  3. In the HP OpenView group, double-click the Console Setup script icon.

  4. Follow the instruction and answer the prompts that display.

    For questions regarding the prompts or OpenView Console refer to HP OpenView Console Manager's Guide.

  5. On each managed node (PC), use the VERCHECK.EMS.SYSMGR program to verify that the managed node software version is A.01.03.

    
      :VERCHECK.EMS.SYSMGR
    
    
  6. On the management node, use the VERCHECK.PUB.SYSMGR program to verify that the management node software version is A.01.03.

    
      :VERCHECK.PUB.SYSMGR
    
    
If you are using OpenView System Manager:

  2. Double-click the program icon.

  3. In the HP OpenView group, double-click the MgdNode Setup script icon.

    For questions regarding the prompts or OpenView Console refer to HP OpenView System Manager Manager's Guide.

  5. On each managed node (PC), use the VERCHECK.EMS.SYSMGR program to verify that the managed node software version is A.01.03.

    
      :VERCHECK.EMS.SYSMGR
