Debian & HPSIM

Jose Antonio_5 — Wed, 26 Jul 2006 07:27:08 GMT

Hi all,
Can I integrate servers with S.O. Debian in HPSIM?? If yes, how can I integrate those machines (exists PSP´s???)?
Thanks.

hi

There is no PSPs for debian unfortunately. This also means that HP is not developping any agents for Debian. But it doesn't mean that there is no solution: There are severals in fact :

1/HP Web site:
ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/products/servers/Linux/linux.pdf
In this document is described how to rebuild the HPASM package on page 25.

2/On the net itself : proliant and debian gives many hits.

Here are some links that will provide you with all the scripts to adapt regular HP agents (HPASM, CMANIC and SMH) to denian environnment.

I also have a business requirement for Ubuntu support - or at least decent Debian support.

Hewlett Packard have poor support for Debian and Ubuntu, even Dell are getting it right. I am not happy with HP because of this!

I've tried to install the available .deb packages in one of my ubuntu servers but it won't work, those packages depend on extremely old packages, i.e. one of the packages depends on listdc++ 2 and the oldest version available for my distribution is 5...

Ubuntu is one of the most popular linux distribution out there, why not make packages for it? why do you only support Red Hat Enterprise and Suse Entrepise? HP could at least support the LTS (Long term support) versions of Ubuntu...

We are using HP Proliant 365 G5 model for our product integration since long time. We are really looking for HPSIM on Ubuntu. As said, why HP cannot develop ubuntu (lts) packages?
