6.5.6  
Installing the HiPath Inventory Server Separately 
 
The software components and tools of the master setup mentioned in Table 6-5 can be installed on several PCs. In such a scenario the Inventory Server should be installed on all PCs that are to support the HiPath Inventory Manager.

Procedure  
 1.   Insert the installation CD.
    The installation program is started via the autorun function. Alternatively you can initiate Setup via Windows Explorer under <CD-ROM drive letter>:\setup.exe.
 2.   Select the language you require for the Setup browser. German (Germany) and English (USA) versions are currently available.
    The system is prepared for installation.
 3.   Click Next to start the installation routine.
    Important installation information is displayed.
    This includes the latest information on installation. Please read this information carefully.
 4.   Click Next to proceed with the installation routine.
 5.   Select destination path.
    Select the folder where you want to install the program.
    Confirm the default folder c:\program files\siemens\hipath\ with Next or click Browse and select a different folder.
 6.   Select program folder.
    Select the location where the setup should create the new shortcuts.
    Confirm the default folder HiPath with Next or select a different folder.
 7.   The Select Features dialog appears.
   
    Select the HiPath Inventory components you want to install and deselect the ones you do not want to install.
 8.   Then click Next.
    The Start Copying Files dialog appears.
   
    Check if the correct destination directory and program group are specified and if all necessary components are installed.
    To be able to implement the setup for HiPath Inventory, both an FM Reporting client and a Common Web Service must be installed on the relevant PC. Both components are automatically selected and installed by the Master Setup.
 9.   Click Next to start the copy operation.
    The Trap Destinations and Communities dialog appears.
   
    Enter the trap destinations (if necessary) and the HiPath Fault Management desktop community names.
   
The FM Reporting Client does not have its own user interface. The trap destinations and community names defined during installation may only be changed by uninstalling and then reinstalling the FM Reporting Client.  
Users with sufficient knowledge of SNMP can change trap destinations and community names by editing the file snmpd.cnf (see Appendix E "Notes for Editing the File snmpd.cnf").  
 10.   Click Next to proceed with the installation routine.
    The Inventory Database Location dialog appears.
   
    Enter the IP address and the port number of the PC where the database is installed (MSDE SQL database server).
 11.   Confirm your entries with Next.
 12.   When installation is complete, a dialog appears in which you can terminate the setup with Finish.
