HP Web Package Manageer

[Medavie]

Can someone please tell me what "HP Web Package Manager" (hpjfpmd) is.?? I have done searches of all sections of the hp web sites and have even tried searching via google and yahoo. I have gotten no answer. It runs on our 11.0 system and has no rc.config.d files and start in sbin/init.d. We want to know it's purpose

Shane,
Tell us more about this file: where is it located, why do you call it HP WPM?? etc.

I've done several searches on this title and file and find nothing.

What does the following provide?
# /usr/bin/what $(whence hpjfpmd)
# /usr/bin/file $(whence hpjfpmd)
# swlist -l file |grep hpjfpmd (This will show you what fileset it was installed with, IF it was installed with swinstall.)

Could it be part of JetAdmin??

I don't have it installed on any of my test machines so I can't look for it.

hpjfpmd: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked

Doing a what on the file returns blank

Here is what the /sbin/init.d/hpjfpmd/ has in it.

more /sbin/init.d/hpjfpmd
#!/sbin/sh

PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
export PATH

RVAL=0

case $1 in
'start_msg')
echo "Starting HP Web Package Manager"
;;

'stop_msg')
echo "Stopping HP Web Package Manager"
;;

'start')
cd /opt/fpmd/
./hpjfpmd -start && RVAL=0 || RVAL=1
;;

'stop')
cd /opt/fpmd/
./hpjfpmd -stop && RVAL=0 || RVAL=1
;;

*)
echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|start_msg|stop_msg}"
RVAL=1
;;
esac

exit ${RVAL}

This is where I get the HP Web Package Manager from.

Nah...it's not part of JetAdmin - I checked.

If I was a betting man I'd bet it's some kind of Java pkg manager - like RPM or such.

You need to look at /opt/fpmd/hpjfpmd with those commands.

FPM is FTAM Protocol Machine
FTAM => File Transfer Access & Management
an international standard for transfer, access, and management of files in an open network. HP FTAM/9000 is an HP implementation of this standard; it offers the C language programmatic interface defined for MAP 3.0 FTAM, which in turn, provides you with the following capabilities.

Multivendor connectivity
Text and binary file transfers
File access (record level locate and read)
File management, including the following:
File creation and deletion
File attribute manipulation (read and change)
Security mechanisms such as file locking, filestore passwords, and concurrency control, and file access control

Is this a development system?
Could fpmd be the daemon for FPM?

Rgds,
Jeff

Here is the results I get from the ps I do not find a fpmd daemon.

ps -ef|grep fpmd
root 1816 1 0 Aug 31 ? 0:00 ./hpjfpmd -start
root 23660 2127 1 15:03:36 pts/tK 0:00 grep fpmd


Also here is the first page of the strings command on hpjfpmd executable.

Shane,
Exactly what I was looking for. And it is part of JetAdmin --> Web JetAdmin Package Manager

Installed on: supported Linux, Solaris and HP-UX systems
Path: /opt/fpmd
Purpose: Performs installation of packages for Web JetAdmin software

Since that package has been discontinued/obsoleted in favor of packages like HPPI (Print Installer) you probably won't find anything on the HP sites.
