INSTALL INFORMATION 

This document will guide the user through getting the latest mib, rev, and cfg files copied
and installed on their management server.

Two procedures exist: one to install the MIB update on Windows platforms and the other to install the MIB update on HP-UX or Linux platforms.

The Windows update will automatically determine if Insight Manager 7 or Systems Insight Manager or both are running
 and then perform the appropriate steps. If Systems Insight Manager is installed, but Insight Manager 7 is not, the script will
 correctly update the MIBs for Systems Insight Manager but display this error at the end for Insight Manager 7:

	Insight Manager XE - Error: -2147024894 Invalid root in registry key 	"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Compaq\Insight Manager XE\CurrentDir".
	Insight Manager XE: No Mib update, Insight Manager XE is not running

 This is expected behavior.  Note that Insight Manager XE and Insight Manager 7 are synonymous in this instance. When both applications
 are installed or if only Insight Manager 7 is installed, no errors of this type should be seen.

The procedure for HP-UX and Linux is the same for both Operating Systems and only runs if Systems Insight Manager (any version) is installed.

    NOTE: The user must log in with administrator privileges on Windows and as root on HP-UX/Linux. In addition, when updating the MIBs
    for Systems Insight Manager, the log in account must also be a full-rights Systems Insight Manager user in order to execute tools such as MxMib.

    NOTE: After a successful installation of the mibs for a platform running Insight Manager 7 or Insight Manager XE, the service must
    be stopped and restarted. This is not necessary for Systems Insight Manager.

    NOTE: This kit contains modifications to event types which if used in a query could cause the query to not trigger as the query
    mechanism uses a perfect match scheme.
