Install the hinicadm and hioadm Tool Packages

Installing hinicadm

For details, see IN200 NIC User Guide.

Before the installation, check that:

  • The Huawei IN200 NIC has been installed properly on the server.
  • The hinicadm installation package has been downloaded to the client. (The NIC software package contains the hinicadm tool package).
  • The installation package has been uploaded to the server.
  1. Log in to the server.
  2. Install hinicadm.

    Install the RPM package.

    1
    rpm -ivh hinicadm-xxxx-xxxx.xxx.rpm
    

    Install the DEB package.

    1
    dpkg -i hinicadm-xxxx-xxxx.xxx.deb
    

Installing the hioadm Tool Package (Linux)

For details, see the ES3000 V3 SAS SSD User Guide.

After installing ES3000 V3 SAS SSDs, install the tool package required by the OS to manage the drives.

The tool package is named differently for different Linux systems:

  • Naming format for RHEL, CentOS, OEL, and SLES: hioadm-<Version_Number>-<Release_Number>.Hardware_Architecture.rpm, for example, hioadm-5.0.0.6-1.x86_64.rpm.
  • Naming format for Ubuntu or Debian: hioadm-<Version_Number>-<Release_Number>.Hardware_Architecture.deb, for example, hioadm-5.0.0.6-1.amd64.deb.
  • Naming format for Citrix: hioadm-<Version_number>-<System_Version>.iso, for example, hioadm-5.0.0.6-6u2.iso.

If the Citrix version is 6.2, use a 32-bit tool package, for example, i386. If the Citrix version is 6.5 or 7.1, use a 64-bit tool package, for example, x86_64. Before the installation, check that:

  • An ES3000 V3 SAS SSD has been installed on the server.
  • You have downloaded the tool package and verified its integrity.
  • You have uploaded the tool package to a directory (for example, /home) on the server.
  1. Log in to the server as an administrator.
  2. Go to the directory that stores the tool package, for example, /home.
    1
    cd /home
    
  3. Run the installation command based on the OS type.

    If the OS is RHEL, CentOS, OEL, or SLES:

    1
    rpm -ivh hioadm-5.0.0.6-1.x86_64.rpm
    

    If the OS is Ubuntu or Debian:

    1
    dpkg -i hioadm-5.0.0.6-1.amd64.deb
    

    If the OS is Citrix:

    1. Check the Citrix version.

      For a version earlier than Citrix 7.1, run 3.b, 3.c, and 3.d in sequence.

      For Citrix 7.1 or later, run 3.e and 3.f in sequence.

    2. Mount the ISO package.

      The following uses Citrix 6.2 as an example (the mount directory is /tmp/Citrix):

      1
      mount -o loop hioadm-5.0.0.6-6u2.iso /tmp/Citrix
      
    3. Go to the directory to which the ISO package is mounted.
      1
      cd /tmp/Citrix
      
    4. Install the tool.
      Run install.sh in /tmp/Citrix to install the tool.
      1
      ./install.sh
      
    5. Upload the ISO package.
      1
      xe update-upload file-name=hioadm-citrix7u1-5.0.0.8.iso
      

      After the upload is complete, the system returns the UUID of the tool package.

    6. Use the UUID obtained in the previous step and run the xe update-apply command to make the tool package take effect.
      xe update-apply uuid=320232df-7adb-4cbe-a7a3-8515240879e1
  4. Obtain the tool help information or query the tool.
    1
    2
    hioadm -h
    rpm -qa | grep hioadm
    

    For Citrix 7.1, run the xe update-list command.
