8 Avaya Integrated Management, Network Infrastructure Management Installation and Upgrade
Pre-Installation Tasks
Before installing Avaya Integrated Management products, you must complete the following
pre-installation tasks.
1. Check the minimum hardware and software requirements for the Windows server (see
‘‘Windows Server Requirements’’ on page 10).
2. Check that all previous sequential upgrades and/or major releases were installed before
installing this release. If the wizard detects a software upgrade that is not sequential, the wizard
will stop and display a message to install the skipped releases. The wizard will then abort the
installation.
3. Carefully review Avaya Integrated Management Planning and Implementation, document
number 555-233-680. This document is available from the Avaya Support Web site (see “How
to Access Books on the Web” on page 4). This document describes server configuration
requirements and provides pre-installation forms that must be completed before you begin
installing the Avaya Integrated Management products. The pre-installation forms contain
information that you will need to install the products, such as IP addresses, server domain
names, and port addresses.
4. HP OpenView (Optional). If you plan to run HP OpenView, you must install HP OpenView on
the Windows server before you install the Network Management applications. When HP
OpenView is present, the Network Management Console is not available, and HP OpenView
acts as the launch point for the applications and device managers.
Note: HP OpenView is not included in any of the Integrated Management offers.
Customers must purchase and maintain HP OpenView separately. Avaya Services
does not support HP OpenView or other third party products.
5. Carefully review this entire book before you start the installations on the servers and client PCs.
