Download and Install/Update Software on the CSM Management Server
Download Latest Version of CSM
Installed version: $rpmVersions{'csm.server'}
Get the most recent update of CSM software from the CSM Service site. Store
it in $tmpdir on the management server . You may want to do this by running your browser from the CSM mgmt
svr, so the CSM tarball gets downloaded directly to that machine.
Check for the required and optional packages for the management server.
If some packages are not found, it will look in the RPM path ($::config{RPMPath} ). (Set this path to point to the necessary, already mounted, CDs,
ISOs, or directories containing the necessary RPMs.) Some of the
packages can also be obtained using buttons below. See the Software Requirements section of the CSM Planning and Installation Guide.
Installed version: $rpmVersions{'autoupdate'}
This open source package is needed for the Software Maintenance System
(SMS) part of CSM that distributes updated RPMs to the nodes in the cluster.
It is also used by this page to download/install other pkgs. Currently,
the autoupdate package cannot be shipped with CSM, so it must be downloaded
separately. If you have trouble with the button, download it manually and store in in $tmpreqsdir on the management server and install it.
Extract from tarballs and then install or update the CSM software on the
management server. This will get software from the RPM path ($::config{RPMPath} ).
Install a license key and accept the license agreement. This button
is not implemented yet. If this is the 1st time you are installing
CSM on this machine, you will have to run csmconfig -L <file> .
Download and Install/Update Optional Software on the CSM Management Server
Installed version: $rpmVersions{'xcsm.web'}
Download and install a newer version of this CSM web browser interface,
if available. This requires autoupdate, which can be downloaded &
installed above. Note: currently this only works if you have access to the internal IBM
network, because downloading from alphaWorks can't be automated due to
the license acceptance requirement.
Installed version: $rpmVersions{'webmin'}
Download and install the latest version of webmin. This will be placed
in $tmpxcsmdir for future reference. Alternatively, you can have webmin download/install its new version .
Download xCSM
Installed version: $rpmVersions{'xcsm'}
The ECT (Enhanced Cluster Tools) alphaWorks site provides extras tools
for CSM that are supported on a best effort basis. You can download
xcsm-*.noarch.rpm and/or xcsm.web-*.noarch.rpm (this web interface).
Store it in $tmpdir on the management server .
Install or update the ECT software (xcsm, xcsm.web) from $::config{RPMPath} .
Download and install a new version of xCSM. The xCSM package contains
many as-is additions to CSM.
