1.4.1 Installing SLM
Use an installer to install SLM - Manager or SLM - UR. The system operator performs this operation.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Before you start
Verify that your user account belongs to the OS's Administrators group.
(2) Procedure
To install SLM:
Insert the distribution medium into the correct drive.
Install SLM by following the installer's instructions.
You will specify the following items during installation:
- User information
User name
Specify a character string of no more than 50 characters.
Company name
Specify a character string of no more than 80 characters.
- Installation folder
By default, the following folder is used:
system-drive:\Program Files\HITACHI\JP1ITSLM
- Notes about the installation folder:
If you change the installation folder, specify an absolute path consisting of no more than 35 characters.
UNC representation is not supported.
A network drive cannot be specified.
The installation folder path cannot contain a hash mark (#).
The folder name cannot begin with a lower-case letter u.
If SLM - UR is being installed on the same host where SLM - Manager has already been installed, the installation folder for SLM - UR will already be set to the folder specified when SLM - Manager was installed; no other folder can be specified. Similarly, if SLM - Manager is being installed on the same host where SLM - UR has already been installed, the installation folder for SLM - Manager will already be set to the folder specified when SLM - UR was installed; no other folder can be specified.
When the installer terminates normally, the installation is complete.
(3) Supplementary information
JP1/Base must be installed on the host where SLM - Manager has been installed.
For details about how to install JP1/Base, see the JP1/Base User's Guide.
The reference time of the host on which SLM - Manager and SLM - UR have been installed is GMT. On the other hand, the reference time of the computer from which a monitoring person logs in to SLM - Manager is based on that computer's time zone.
When SLM - Manager or SLM - UR is installed, Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2) is also installed. At that time, the path for HNTRLib2 (system-drive:\Program Files\Common Files\Hitachi) is added to the Path Windows system environment variable.
If you install SLM - Manager or SLM - UR on a host on which the same version of SLM - Manager or SLM - UR is already installed, select Repair in the installer. When Repair is selected, all folders and files created by the installer will be restored to their status immediately after the installation. Note that files created by the setup command and folders and files created by users remain unchanged.
You can use JP1/Software Distribution's remote installation (software distribution) to install SLM - Manager or SLM - UR on a target host. In this case, the default user information and installation folder are used because the installation window is not displayed. When you use remote installation, you can repair the program by re-installing SLM - Manager or SLM - UR on a host on which the same version of SLM - Manager or SLM - UR has already been installed.
If SLM is installed under system-drive:\Program Files\, the installation will fail if there is a folder or file named Program immediately under the system drive. Before you start installation, make sure that there is no folder or file named Program.
