Re: How to get hpasm module on HP Proliant?
Hello everybody, Emmanuel Halbwachs a écrit : These hpasm and a collection of other tools are supplied by HP only for supported distros (RH, SuSE, UL) in RPM format, tailored for these distros. The only tip I found about that is http://www.sk-tech.net/support/HPrpm2deb.sh.html As I understand, it is a script that does alien to have a .deb and then does some adaptations. Does anyone here running HP Proliant: - tested the above script? - succeeded in adaptating the HP RPM stuff to woody? So I tested this script and it worked ok for me on a ML350G3. More on this below. Markus Oswald a écrit : I'm currently working on a website for that: www.debian-on-proliant.com Currently there is only a basic framework and a hardware-matrix online, but I hope to get some real content soon Comments, suggestions and especially contributions are welcome! I appreciate the effort! I think two links has to appear as they were the key for me: [1] http://people.debian.org/~taggart/boot-floppies/ [2] http://www.sk-tech.net/support/HPrpm2deb.sh.html Dan MacNeil a écrit : Make the site a Wiki, or at least add a wiki section. Lowers the barrier to contribution a great deal. I agree and I certainly am willing to contribute. More détails on the installation. This script installs: - hpasm-7.0.0-21.rhel21.i386.rpm - cmastor-7.0.0-16.linux.i386.rpm - cpqacuxe-7.0-1.linux.i386.rpm (note that the latest version on HP/Compaq website is 7.1.1) The hpasm (HP Advanced Server Management, I guess) packet gives: - two kernel driver modules which control the server's supervision ASIC: - cpqasm - cpqevt - these modules create some entries in /proc: - cpqfan - cpqpci - cpqpwr - cpqtemp - some tools in /sbin: - imlbe - hpuid - hplog - hpimlview - cpqimlview (there is manpages for them) The cmastor (Compaq MAnagement STORage, I guess) packet brings some daemons: radar:~# /etc/init.d/cmastor start Starting Storage Agents (cmastor): All agents Starting Storage peer (cmastorpeerd): Starting Storage Event Logger (cmaeventd): Starting IDA agent (cmaidad): Starting FCA agent (cmafcad): Starting IDE agent (cmaided): Starting SCSI agent (cmascsid): With cmastor, I have now log entries in hplog -v when I unplug a hard drive. The cpqacuxe (ComPaQ Array Configuration Utility XE ?? I guess) packet provide the create/modify tool for RAID arrays. It is a http(s) web server, same as the one on the SmartStart CD that comes with the machine. For the moment, I test with a backported 2.4.26 kernel from http://www.backports.org (kernel-image-2.4.26-1-686-smp). In order to get the above script to work, I had to install the according kernel-headers-2.4.26-1-686-smp.

Cheers, Hi, Currently we have a few HP proliant DL 380G3 and I took documentation from this site and manage to get this working. I didn't use this script there was a web page with the instruction but I think they replace the instructions set by this script. With this tool I am able to know if there are changes in the status of each power supply, the fan or the hard drives. If you need more information to get this working feel free to mail me off list.
