Subject: [SOLVED] Steps to install iSPI Admin Client on Windows workstation?

Body:

Hi everyone,

I am currently tasked with deploying the administrative client for our monitoring environment, but I am hitting a wall with the documentation. I need to install the iSPI Admin Client (specifically for [Insert Version, e.g., HP OpenView / Oracle] ) on a Windows 10/11 workstation.

My goal: To have a local GUI console to manage the server configuration without having to RDP into the server directly.

The issue: I have downloaded the package from the portal, but I am unsure if I need to run the full installer or if there is a specific "Client Only" executable hidden in the directory. I tried running the main setup file, but it seems to be pushing for a full server installation. ispi admin client install

Questions:

Is there a separate download link specifically for the Admin Client?
If it is part of the main package, which executable should I be targeting? (e.g., setup.exe -client?)
Does the installation require a specific version of Java or .NET Framework pre-installed?

Any guidance or documentation links would be greatly appreciated. I’m hoping to avoid installing unnecessary server components on my local machine.

Thanks in advance!

Q3: How do I uninstall the ISPI Admin Client completely?

Run the original installer and select “Remove.” Then manually delete C:\ProgramData\ISPI and remove registry keys from HKLM\SOFTWARE\ISPI.

Step 1: Prepare the Environment

Create a folder: C:\IBM\ISPI_AdminClient
Set an environment variable: JAVA_HOME pointing to your supported Java installation.
Verify Java: Open Command Prompt and run java -version.

Optimizing Performance

Increase JVM heap size: Edit ISPIAdminClient.ini (or .vmoptions) and add -Xmx1024m.
Disable unused tabs in Preferences to speed up UI.

Error 4: “Installation rollback – Failed to write to registry”

Cause: Insufficient registry permissions or antivirus interference.
Fix: Temporarily disable antivirus real-time scanning, right-click installer → Run as administrator, and ensure you are a local admin.
