Installing the Export Tool on a UNIX Computer
To install the Export Tool on a UNIX computer:
1.
Create a directory on your UNIX computer.
In later s, you will install the Export Tool on the new directory.
2.
Mount the Export Tool installation media.
3.
Do one of the following:
• If
you
are
using Solaris, locate the archive file export.tar in the directory
/program/monitor/solaris in your CD-ROM disc, and then copy export.tar to the new
directory that you created earlier.
• If you are using HP-UX, locate the archive file export.tar in the directory
/program/monitor/HP-UX in your CD-ROM disc, and then copy export.tar to the new
directory that you created earlier.
4.
Decompress export.tar on your computer.
The Export Tool is installed. Also, a new directory named export is created.

export directory contains a couple of files, which include runWin.bat. It is recommended
that you delete runWin.bat because this file is no longer needed.
• The
Export
Tool program is a Java class file and is located in the export/lib directory.

in the command file execute sequentially and then the monitoring data are saved in files.
