Installing HPI Clients

Procedure

In order to install an HPI-B client package on a node blade, proceed as follows.

1. Connect to the node blade where you wish to install the HPI-B package.

2. Copy the RPM file that you wish to install to the node blade. Refer to

Table "RPM Files

for HPI-B Clients" on page 21

for details on available RPM files for your particular

node blade.

3. If applicable, enter rpm -e <Old HPI-B client package name> to uninstall

an already installed client package.

4. Enter rpm -i <New HPI-B client RPM file name>

This installs the HPI-B library package.

The following table lists the directories and their content available on the blade after installing
the package.
