The Expert Guide to Installing and Running Linux on HP Integrity Itanium® Systems
Companies are increasingly turning to Linux on HP Integrity systemsfor high-performance computing, large enterprise and databaseapplications, and 64-bit application development. However, Linuxadministration in the HP Integrity’s Itanium® 2-based environment issignificantly different than on conventional IA-32 platforms. Now,there’s a comprehensive guide to administering HP Integrity systemsrunning Linux. HP Solution Architect and Linux/Unix expert MartyPoniatowski walks you through every essential tool and technique, frominstallation and bootup, compiling kernels to building clusters.Coverage includes:

• A primer on basic Linux system administration for those migrating from other environments
• The HP Integrity boot process: EFI, POSSE, and the Management Processor
• Using the HP Enablement Kit for Linux to install, configure, and recover Linux on HP Itanium 2 systems
• Using Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) and LILO
• Working with the GNOME and KDE user interfaces
• Adding and partitioning SCSI disks on HP Integrity Servers
• Maintaining file systems with fsck, e2fsck, inodes, and Superblock
• Compiling and tuning Linux kernels
• Linux system startup and shutdown scripts for HP Integrity systems
• Understanding, configuring, and using Linux networking
• Working with netstat, route, ipconfig, iptables, nslookup, and other key commands
• Managing users, groups, processes, backup/restore, and other basic system administration tasks
• Running Samba to deliver Windows file and print services
• Running Linux, HP-UX and Windows Server 2003 concurrently on the same HP Integrity system
• Shell programming with the Linux bash shell

HP co-developed the Itanium architecture, and HP Labs scientists maintain the Itanium Linux kernel. This is the onlybook to leverage HP’s unique knowledge about administering Linux onItanium platforms. It will be indispensable for every sysadmin runningLinux on HP Integrity or other Itanium systems — regardless of theirexperience with Linux, HP-UX, or other UNIX systems.
