Thanks for choosing ITSM Deployment Manager HP ITSM Deployment Manager is a lightweight system administration tool that enables system administrators to quickly install, configure, deploy, and maintain HP software across multiple environments, greatly decreasing the need to manually launch installers, hand-edit configuration files, and refer to extensive product documentation. Why use ITSM Deployment Manager? Do you need to integrate HP Service Manager with UCMDB? ITSM Deployment Manager provides you with easy to use wizards that create standardized deployment schemes for supported HP software, including popular integrations such as Service Manager and UCMDB. Do you have a need to customize one of our standardized deployment schemes? ITSM Deployment Manager enables you to tailor our standard packages or create entirely new packages that meet your specific needs. Do you need your Service Manager environment to support 50, 500, or 5000 concurrent users? With the click of a few buttons, ITSM Deployment Manager handles all the configuration and complexity associated with configuring the desired number of concurrent users. There is no need to consult product documentation, such as compatibility matrices. ITSM Deployment Manager applies the optimum sizing and tuning best practices by drawing on the expertise and experience of the HP R&D team, reducing the total cost of ownership and time to value. Using this Quick Start Guide This Quick Start Guide walks you through the steps that are required to install and configure ITSM Deployment Manager. This simple process should take you no more than 30 minutes. In addition, this guide provides an introduction to the ITSM Deployment Manager user interface and includes walkthroughs and overviews for the most common user scenarios in ITSM Deployment Manager. HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 6 of 31

Note for customers with existing HP software implementations Although ITSM Deployment Manager is primarily designed to help you set up, configure, and maintain new environments, it also significantly reduces the time and effort that is required to manage existing environments. As such, we challenge implementers and administrators to use ITSM Deployment Manager to redeploy existing implementations of HP software and experience the benefits directly. While this challenge may seem daunting, please note that redeploying HP software by using ITSM Deployment Manager does not imply that you must redeploy your existing database! For example, the HP Service Manager server is comprised of a number of components; two of which are the server binaries and the applications data stored in your RDBMS s database. ITSM Deployment Manager deploys fresh and updated Service Manager server binaries to the existing servers in your environment of choice; it does not touch, redeploy, or upgrade your existing database information. For more information about real-world scenarios in which ITSM Deployment Manager can help you to re-implement existing environments, see "Redeploying HP software in existing environments" on page 27. A specific Guide is also available on the following HPLN page: Deployment Manager Best Practice Guide for Existing SM implementations Lastly, future versions of ITSM Deployment Manager will include additional customization features and documentation to enable you to manage and redeploy existing environments that have been tailored without using ITSM Deployment Manager. Don t hesitate to subscribe to our HPLN announcements to receive the latest versions and to benefit from those features when they are available. Installation The server that hosts ITSM Deployment Managermust have access to all your target environments and servers. Specific PowerShell settings will be applied to access target Windows servers from this server.connections to Linux servers will be established by using SSH. It is important to understand that all installation files that ITSM Deployment Manager uses will be stored on this server as well. This includes automatically downloaded patches and third party software, as well as your own official version of the products that you want to install and will have to upload to this server by using ITSM Deployment Manager. Apart from those two main requirements on storage and network access, ITSM Deployment Manager requires only a working Apache Tomcat server to run. Minimum system requirements Processor: 1 CPU core RAM: HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 7 of 31

1GB Hard disk space: 20GB Note: This is the recommended size to store HP software installer files, patches, and third party open source software. The actual size that is required may vary due to usage patterns in ITSM Deployment Manager. Operating system(s): Both the servers on which ITSM Deployment Manager is running and the servers that ITSM Deployment Manager manages can run one of the following operating systems: Windows Server 2008 x64 Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Windows Server 2012 x64 Windows Server 2012 R2 x64 Note: ITSM Deployment Manager supports patched versions of Windows Server only. To download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package, visit the following Microsoft website: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2019667 You may need to consult your Windows Server administrator, your local IT team, or Microsoft Support to ensure that you understand Microsoft's requirements to install the Visual C++ Redistributable Package on your servers. Additionally, the servers that ITSM Deployment Manager manages can run one of the following operating systems: Red Hat Linux Enterprise version 6.5 Note: To use Linux, you must ensure that you have the following configuration: An account with write permission for the /files /opt, /usr/local, /usr/lib, and /ect/profile folders. (HP products install on /opt, third party products install on /usr/local) A C/C++ compiler (for Apache HTTP server) is installed. A 32-bit library for running 32-bit JREs, such as glibc.i686, is installed. SSH/FTP connections with user name and password are allowed. HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 8 of 31

The account is in the sudo list (can execute command by using sudo). Python 2.6 (or later) is installed. Browser(s): Google Chrome (recommended) Mozilla Firefox (latest version) Windows Internet Explorer 9 Windows Internet Explorer 10 Note: ITSM Deployment Manager does not require any plugins to function. Currently, ITSM Deployment Manager does not support Windows Internet Explorer 11. JDK: Java (JDK) and Tomcat 7. The JVM memory should be set between 512MB and 1024MB. Tomcat: Apache Tomcat 7.x 64-bit web server. Network Traffic between the servers on which ITSM Deployment Manager is running and the servers that ITSM Deployment Manager manages requires the following ports: PowerShell (HTTP traffic): TCP/5985 PowerShell (HTTPS traffic): TCP/5986 Tomcat default HTTP Connector (HTTP traffic): TCP/8080 Note: These ports are common defaults and may have been changed by your network or by your computer administrators. For example, if the Tomcat server that is running ITSM Deployment Manager is integrated with an Apache web server, the ITSM Deployment Manager server now operates with a default port value of TCP/80 HTTP. HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 9 of 31

Step 1: Deploy Apache Tomcat Deploy the Apache Tomcat web server. For information about supported versions, see the "Minimum system requirements" section. Step 2: Configure the database After you deploy and unpack the.war file in Tomcat, you may need to configure the web.xml file, depending on the type of database that you will use. H2 Database By default, ITSM Deployment Manager is configured to use the embedded H2 database. If you are satisfied with this default setting, no further action is required. You can easily back up the database before you upgrade ITSM Deployment Manager by making a copy of the database files. Microsoft SQL Server Database In order to run ITSM Deployment Manager with a Microsoft SQL Server database, an active instance of SQL Server is required. ITSM Deployment Manager is compatible with all editions of SQL Server (Express, Web, Standard, and Enterprise). To configure the SQL Server database for use with ITSM Deployment Manager, follow these steps: 1. Create a new, empty database on an instance of SQL Server that is located within your network. ITSM Deployment Manager then configures the required tables when it connects to the database for the first time. 2. Configure the connection string to use the format in the following example: 192.168.145.129:1433/DM;user=dmuser;password=Deploy@Mgr44 3. Modify the connection string in the web.xml file within the web application to use the following format: <context-param> <param-name>databasetype</param-name> <param-value>h2</param-value> </context-param> <context-param> <param-name>databaseconnectionstring</param-name> <param-value>[instance-ip]:1433/[dbname];user=[user];password=[password] </param-value </context-param> This example contains the following placeholders: HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 10 of 31

[instance-ip] the IP address or host name of the SQL Server instance [dbname] - the name of the database [user] - the SQL Server username [password] - the SQL Server user s password Note: Do not include the square brackets in the connection string. Step 3: Start Apache Tomcat Start Apache Tomcat in order to get Deployment Manager up and running. Step 4: Log in to Deployment Manager Navigate to the web page that is located on the Tomcat instance (for example, http://host:8080/dm). The ITSM Deployment Manager login page (see Figure 1) is displayed. Note: Do not use localhost or the 127.n.n.n IP class for the host name in the URL, as external servers resolve back to this host name when installation packages and patches are deployed. Figure 1. Deployment Manager login page Then, log in to ITSM Deployment Manager by using the following credentials: HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 11 of 31

Username: admin Password: admin Note: After you log in for the first time, you will be prompted to change these default credentials. Step 5: Configure the installation file folder All automatically downloaded and manually uploaded installation files (and license files) will be stored in the same location. The current instance of Tomcat must have access to that location. This enables ITSM Deployment Manager to store software binaries and patches in order to deploy them to remote servers. We recommend that you perform this step while connected to the ITSM Deployment Manager server, as you will need to access local folders and partitions. To configure the installation file folder, follow these steps: 1. On the Administration tab, click System Settings in the left-hand pane. 2. In the right-hand pane, type the path to the installation file folder in the Installer path where all binaries and patches will be located field. 3. Click Save. Figure 2. Deployment Manager system settings page HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 12 of 31

Step 6: Create an environment For information about how to do this, see "Creating a new environment" on page 22. Step 7: Upload the license files You can upload license files only after you have created at least one environment in ITSM Deployment Manager and added at least one server to this environment. All licenses for your products will be specific to each server for each product. We recommend that you perform this step while connected to the ITSM Deployment Manager server, as you will need to access local folders and partitions. To make licenses available for use by ITSM Deployment Manager, follow these steps: 1. On the Environments tab, click Licenses in the left-hand pane. 2. In the right-hand pane, click Upload file next to the product for which you want to add a license, and then browse to the appropriate license file. Note: The license file deployment feature is currently available only for HP Service Manager, Asset Manager, and UCMDB. You must upload other license files manually. To do this, refer to individual product documentation. 3. Select the license file, and then click Open. Note: ITSM Deployment Manager stores the license files locally on its installation file folder after you upload them. The files are installed on individual servers when you use to install the associated products. You can specify a different license file for each server on which you have an applicable HP product installed. HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 13 of 31

Figure 3. The ITSM Deployment Manager license upload page Step 8: Upload the installation files ITSM Deployment Manager automatically downloads and installs third party software from the internet and patches for the HP products that it supports from the HP Software Support Online website. However, you must manually download HP software hotfixes, the installation files for HP software content packs, and the installation files for the release versions of HP products, and then upload them to ITSM Deployment Manager by using the installation file manager interface in ITSM Deployment Manager. We recommend that you perform this step while connected to the ITSM Deployment Manager server, as you will need to access local folders and partitions. ITSM Deployment Manager will save the files that you upload to the installation file folder that you configured in step 5. To upload installation files to ITSM Deployment Manager, follow these steps: 1. On the Administration tab, click Installer File Manager in the left-hand pane. The right-hand pane displays all of the products that ITSM Deployment Manager does not automatically download. 2. In the right-hand pane, click Upload file next to the product for which you want to add an installation file, and then browse to the appropriate file. 3. Select the file, and then click Open. Caution: Currently, ITSM Deployment Manager does not validate the file that you select. You will not receive a warning if you select an incorrect file type. Make sure that you select HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 14 of 31

and upload the correct installation file, or you will experience errors when you use ITSM Deployment Managerto install HP software. Figure 4. The ITSM Deployment Manager installation file manager page Configure Windows for PowerShell Some of the ITSM Deployment Manager features rely on Microsoft Windows PowerShell technology. In order for ITSM Deployment Manager to successfully manage your Windows-based servers, PowerShell must be configured on each remote server and on the ITSM Deployment Manager host server. All PowerShell scripts used by ITSM Deployment Manager are code-signed by HP to verify their authenticity and to maintain a high level of security. The following steps describe how to open the Windows firewall to allow remote PowerShell commands as well as set the target machines to trust only the ITSM Deployment Manager web server. All remote commands must be authenticated later when you configure the servers by using ITSM Deployment Manager. Step 1: Configure the ITSM Deployment Manager server To configure the ITSM Deployment Manager server, follow these steps: HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 15 of 31

1. Log in to the server as an Administrator. 2. Run PowerShell as an Administrator. 3. Run the following commands and answer "Yes" when prompted by PowerShell: Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned Start-Service WinRM Set-Item wsman:\localhost\client\trustedhosts * Note: To restrict the specific target servers that can be contacted, replace the asterisk (*) in command with a list of IP addresses. You may choose to restrict the trusted server list or not depending on your security policy. To do this, you will need to update this list each time that you add new servers to ITSM Deployment Manager environments. However, by doing this you will ensure that the ITSM Deployment Manager host server does not access other servers by using remote scripting. Step 2: Configure the target machines To configure the target machines, follow these steps: 1. Log in to the machine as an Administrator. 2. Run the following commands and answer "Yes" when prompted by PowerShell: Start-Service WinRM WinRM QuickConfig Enable-PSRemoting Force Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Plugin\Microsoft.PowerShell\Quotas\MaxMemoryPerShellMB 1024 Note: You may need to run the following command to ensure that these memory settings are set correctly: dir WSMan:\localhost\Shell Check the value of MaxMemoryPerShellMB. If the value is less than 1024 (or the value that you used in the Set-Item command), you must run the following additional command, HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 16 of 31

in which X= 1024 or higher: Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Shell\MaxMemoryPerShellMB <X> User interface The ITSM Deployment Manager user interface (UI) consists of the following sections. Dashboard After you log in to ITSM Deployment Manager, you are directed to the main landing page, which consists of the Dashboard tab. This tab displays user statistics and other information, such as the number of environments and servers that are configured within ITSM Deployment Manager. Figure 5. A sample dashboard chart showing a breakdown of time spent using ITSM Deployment Manager Environments The Environments tab consists of an interface that allows you to create and manage environments.

Redeploying HP software in existing environments Prior to the advent of ITSM Deployment Manager, updating a Service Manager environment consisted of manually searching for, downloading, and applying software patches to achieve the desired version level. Now, with ITSM Deployment Manager, updating an existing environment to a new version is easier when following our simple guidelines. Scenario 1 Your existing implementation consists of HP Service Manager 9.32 and the goal is to update to version 9.33. Back up the existing Service Manager server 9.32 software to a safe location. Back up the existing Service Manager web tier 9.32 (WAR/EAR file) to a safe location. HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 27 of 31

Uninstall both the 9.32 Service Manager server and the 9.32 Service Manager web tier from the existing servers. Deploy the 9.33 Service Manager server and the 9.33 Service Manager web tier to the existing servers by using ITSM Deployment Manager. During the deployment process, ITSM Deployment Manager will request the connection details to the existing RDBMS server and database. Note: ITSM Deployment Manager will not redeploy, upgrade, or otherwise touch your existing database. Scenario 2 Your existing implementation consists of HP Service Manager 9.21 and the goal is to update to version 9.33. Back up the existing Service Manager server 9.21 software to a safe location. Back up the existing Service Manager web tier 9.21 (WAR/EAR file) to a safe location. Uninstall both the 9.21 Service Manager server and the 9.21 Service Manager web tier from the existing servers. Deploy the 9.33 Service Manager server and the 9.33 Service Manager web tier to the existing servers using Deployment Manager. Optional: Follow the section Updating the Service Manager Applications if updating the Applications is desired. During the deployment process, ITSM Deployment Manager will request the connection details to the existing RDBMS server and database. Note: ITSM Deployment Manager will not redeploy, upgrade, or otherwise touch your existing database. HP ITSM Deployment Manager (2.0 ) Page 28 of 31
