Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes

General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes

NOTE

Do not check

[Force Update]

otherwise the management server will

re-install the agent.

If the agent is pre-installed on the node, the management server will
activate the node, and install the selected components.

Note that if the agent software is not pre-installed, this action will
install the agent.

4. Execute the following command to verify that the Control, Message,

and Action Agents are all running on the managed node:

/opt/OV/bin/OpC/opcragt -status

Tips for DCE on AIX 4.1 and 4.2

❏ To run

snmpd

at boot time, uncomment the line:

#start /usr/sbin/snmpd “$src_running”

in the file /etc/rc.tcpip.

❏ Even though the

rpcd

daemon does not exist on AIX 4, the SMIT

utility erroneously tries to run it in the option entitled Restart RPC
Daemons in the local machine
. Start the

dced

daemon instead, using

the script

/etc/rc.dce

or the SMIT option Restart the DCE/DFS

Daemons.

Problems Caused by Missing OS Patches for AIX

❏ Sometimes the ITO agent de-installation procedure on AIX 4.1

systems does not return freed disk space when ITO is removed from
the systems. If the

‘df’

output does not reflect the freed disk space,

reboot the machine and check free disk space on

/usr

with

‘df -k

/usr’

.
