Deploying VMM agent on 5.1

[titn003]

I would like to do a v2v migration and when i select the source virtual machine to deploy it say in the Tool launch OK? field

No, Not managed by VMM

so i go to Deploy\ Deploy drivers, firmware Agents\Install VMM

i get the the error message detailed in the screen shot.


I have installed OpenSSh on the target server

How do i fix this ?

May be the the Server which you would do V2V is not identified properly as server in HPSIM. Re-discover the system or identify as server. Install openSSh if it not installed.This might work.......

[loooolaaaaa]

The warning message shows SSH is not installed. If u have installed try re identifying the machine again.

when i try to install ssh it fails

Hi there,

you don't have to have OpenSSh setup. Just copy the relevant hp executable file to the virtual machine host and install it. That saves using the remote deployment tool for something that you can do just as easily manually.

[titn003]

appologies but how do i do that ?

FTP
FTP to a n internal ftp server that has the file copied.

SMB disk mount

Ensure the SMB service is allowed through the ESX firewall.

create a mount point;. mkdir /mnt/windows
mount the device;
mount -t smbfs -o username=localacc,password=mypass //myserver/c$ /mnt/windows

copy the file from one device to another.

You'll find the agent in the directory:
C:\Program Files\HP\HP Virtualization Management Software\Agents\Linux

on the HPSIM server.
