and how the operating system was installed. An installed supported systems management protocol
standard, such as SNMP, is required before installing the systems management software.
Configure the SNMP agent to change the community name, enable set operations, and send traps to a
management station. To configure the SNMP agent for proper interaction with management applications,
perform the procedures described in the Server Administrator User’s Guide.

Remote Enablement Requirements
The Remote Enablement feature is currently supported on:
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux
• Novell SUSE Enterprise Linux
• VMware vSphere (ESX and ESXi)
Dependent RPMs For Remote Enablement
If you choose to install the Remote Enablement feature, you have to install certain dependent RPMs and
configure these RPMs before installing the feature. Install the following RPMs:
• libcmpiCppImpl0
• libwsman1
• openwsman-server
• sblim-sfcb
• sblim-sfcc
The dependent RPMs are available on the Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD at
srvadmin\linux\RPMS\supportRPMS\opensource-components\<OS>\<arch>.
NOTE: On supported SLES 11 and above and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and preceding operating
systems, it is recommended that you install the RPMs from the operating system media, if available.
Installing Dependent RPMs
To install the dependent RPMs not available on the operating system media:
1. Make sure that Pegasus RPMs are uninstalled.
2. Check if the openwsmand and sfcbd binaries are already installed using make-install. Check by
running the commands:
openwsman or sfcbd or you can check the existence of the binaries in
the /usr/local/sbin directory.
3. If the binaries are installed, uninstall these binaries.
