The Linux agent installer package is a RPM (Redhat Package Manager) package. The
RPM package is located in two separate folders on the Linux Agent cd. If you are

WS_SW/32-bit Installation folder from the cd, but if you are running a 64-bit Linux
system, you will need to copy the RPM package from WS_SW/64-bit Installation
folder from the cd. To install the Linux agent, copy
simagent-0.1.i386.rpm to a
directory on the Linux server (e.g. /tmp/PE-SIM/). Note: You may copy the file to
any folder on your Linux server.
