Installing IBM Tivoli System Automation for Multiplatforms (SA MP)
IBM® Tivoli® System Automation for Multiplatforms (SA MP) is supported on AIX® and Linux®. SA MP is integrated with IBM Db2® server on AIX and Linux.
Before you begin
Whether you are using the Db2 installer, installSAM, or uninstallSAM, you must meet the basic prerequisites for installing, upgrading, or uninstalling SA MP. See Installing and upgrading SA MP with the Db2 installer.
If a IBM
PowerHA®
SystemMirror® for AIX cluster is
running, you cannot perform a SA MP
installation or upgrade because SA MP bundles
Reliable Scalable Cluster Technology (RSCT) filesets that are dependent on PowerHA
SystemMirror. To skip
the SA MP
installation use the db2_install command or the installFixPack
command. For information about installing or upgrading SA MP using a
PowerHA
SystemMirror
cluster, see the white paper entitled Upgrade guide for
Db2 Servers in
HACMP Environments
, which is available from the IBM Support and downloads website (http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21045033).
Procedure
There are two methods for installing or upgrading SA MP:
- Using the DB2® installer.
- Using the installSAM install script that is included in the IBM Data Server install media.
What to do next
Look in the SA MP installation log for diagnostic information about any warnings or errors that the Db2 installer or the installSAM installation script returned. For more information about the SA MP installation log, see IBM Tivoli System Automation for Multiplatforms (SA MP) install and uninstall logs.
