INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

The tasks for installing the IBM PurePower Integrated Manager are summarized here. 

1. Download the install package from Fix-Central to a Linux workstation.  Location of package on Fix-Central is:

   https://www-933.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/swg/selectFixes?parent=PurePower%2BManagement%2BNode&product=ibm/power/837401M

   - The 'IBM PurePower Integrated Manager 1.0.0' package includes
          a) IBM PurePower Integrated Manager install tools  (purekvm.tgz)  
          
             Appliance images for:
          b) IBM PurePower Manager and Nagios Core Open Source Monitoring (puremgrvm.tgz)
          c) IBM PurePower PowerVC appliance (powervcvm.tgz)
          d) IBM PurePower Service appliance (servicevm.tgz)


2 - Copy required files to the IBM PurePower Integrated Manager KVM Host operating system (scp):
        a)copy purekvm.tgz into the /data directory              
        b)copy the appliance image(s) (tgz files) to be installed to the /data/images directory
        
        scp example: 
          scp <local_dir>/purekvm.tgz root@<ip_address_kvm_host_os>:/data
          scp <local_dir>/puremgrvm.tgz root@<ip_address_kvm_host_os>:/data/images



        Before untar'ing the tgz files, if you made changes to the existing meta-data files for the appliance, save off a copy:

        From the PurePower Integrated Manager KVM Host operating system:

        scp /data/purepower/puremgr/meta-data  root@mylocalpc:/tmp/puremgr-meta-data
        scp /data/purepower/powervc/meta-data  root@mylocalpc:/tmp/powervc-meta-data
        scp /data/purepower/service/meta-data  root@mylocalpc:/tmp/service-meta-data


3 - On the PurePower Integrated Manager KVM Host operating system  
        a)  cd /data
        b)  tar -xvf purekvm.tgz
         
        Now copy the saved off meta-data files back to the newly untar'd directories to restore your meta-data settings:

        From the Linux OS you saved your files to, copy to the staging area where these files will be used to refresh the appliances with your customized meta-data files.

        scp /tmp/puremgr-meta-data  root@<ip_address_kvm_host_os>:/data/purekvm/conf/cloud/puremgr/meta-data
        scp /tmp/powervc-meta-data  root@<ip_address_kvm_host_os>:/data/purekvm/conf/cloud/powervc/meta-data
        scp /tmp/service-meta-data  root@<ip_address_kvm_host_os>:/data/purekvm/conf/cloud/service/meta-data
 

4 - Run the /data/purekvm/bin/setupguests.sh which will update the PurePower appliance(s)

        setupguests.sh [-g "guest1 guest2 guest3"] [-f]

        -g : specify one to three guest operating system(s) to install
        -f : force install of guest operating system(s).  Installs guest even if it already exists

        The guest1, guest2, & guest3 parameters can be the following values
       
          puremgr => IBM PurePower Manager appliance, puremgrvm.tgz
          powervc => IBM PurePower PowerVC appliance, powervcvm.tgz 
          service => IBM PurePower Service appliance, servicevm.tgz
