To uninstall the Server Component of MSM on VMWare, use the
Uninstall command in the Program menu or run the script
/usr/local/MegaRAID Storage Manager/uninstaller.sh.
Note the following points:
1. A MSM upgrade is supported in this release. This release can be
upgraded by future releases.
2. To shut down the MSM Framework service, run the following
command:
/etc/init.d/vivaldiframeworkd stop
It is recommended that you stop the Monitor service before you stop
the MSM Framework service. To stop the Monitor service run the
following command:
/etc/init.d/mrmonitor stop
This section outlines the product requirements needed to support the
VMWare ESX operating system. Classic VMWare includes a Service
Console that is derived from the Linux 2.4 kernel, but with reduced
functionality.
The MSM server part cannot be installed directly in VMWare ESX 3i.
Management is possible only through Common Information Model (CIM)
providers. These CIM providers integrated into the ESX 3i system build
an interface between the hardware driver of the ThinkServer MegaRAID
controller and remote applications, such as MSM. Management is performed
through MSM installed on a remote machine (Linux/Windows). See
Section 6.4.3.2, "VMWare ESX 3i Management through CIM and CMPI"
for more information.
