HP SIM installation on CentOS 6.2 issue

elTaco — Fri, 18 May 2012 20:56:12 GMT

Hi,

I apologize if this is in the wrong forum, but I could not find a better board to post in.

I dowloaded and installed HP SIM 7.0 for Linux x86 from the binary (SIM_7.0_Z7550-00476.bin) on a CentOS 6.2 VM. The database portion, hpsmdb, installed and fired up without an issue. However, when I try to start hpsim, I get:

$ service hpsim start
hpsim: error while loading shared libraries: libverify.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

libverify.so is available, but appears to be 64-bit, and not 32-bit for both instances:

$ locate libverify.so
/opt/crashplan/jre/lib/amd64/libverify.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/jre/lib/amd64/libverify.so

I checked the package manager, but it just tells me that hpsim provides this library:

$ yum provides libverify.so
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirrors.lga7.us.voxel.net
 * epel: mirror.umd.edu
 * extras: mirror.us.leaseweb.net

hpsim-C.07.00.00.00-1.i386 : HP Systems Insight Manager Server software.
Repo        : installed
Matched from:
Other       : Provides-match: libverify.so

Any idea where libverify.so, that works with hpsim, can be found? I'm sure there will be other dependencies that will pop up once I figure this out.

Thanks!

My solution was to install the version of java that was packaged with HP SIM.

After HP SIM was installed from the .bin file, I installed this

/opt/mx/jre-6u27-linux-i586.bin

And I think that installed it to /usr/local/src/mxserver/jre-6u27-i586. I then moved the entire directory to /opt/mx/j2re, and HP SIM picks up the libs without a problem now. strace was a big help in tracking it down. Sorry I'm not more exact in my answer, but I've been trying a bunch of different things so I don't have a clean checklist of steps.

I'm unable to login to the HP SIM web gui though with the root user and pass. Just says "sign-in failure".

Re: the sign-in failure, you need 32-bit pam libs installed: See this post: http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/ITRC-HP-Systems-Insight-Manager/SIM-6-3-on-RHEL6-1-x86-64-Sign-In-Failure/m-p/5664019#M53903
