Verify that you can establish an SSH connection to the remote target server using the credentials within HP SUM by issuing the following command at a console prompt:
You must enter the root password for the target Linux server at the console to complete the IPv6 connection.
Validate that you can ping the remote target server. In Linux, you need to use the ping6 command to ping IPv6 addresses:
Ensure you can ping the IPv6 loopback address:
Use the DNS hostname instead of IPv6 address to ensure the address is correct.
Use
ipconfigto validate you have IPv6 addresses assigned to your NICs. For more information about troubleshooting your configuration, see the http://www.linux.com/learn/docs/ldp/592-linuxipv6-howto.For more information about setting up and troubleshooting IPv6 networks, see http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netsp/article.php/3634596, by Carla Schroder.
Use an IPv4 network address to ensure HP SUM can properly find the remote target server.
HP SUM can always be copied to the target servers and executed using the local installation method.
