Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes
General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes
To add /var/adm/messages , and /usr/adm/lplog to the managed
node, add the following lines to the /etc/syslog.conf file:
kern.debug /var/adm/messages
lpr.debug /usr/adm/lplog
To add /var/adm/sialog r to the managed node, enter:
touch /var/adm/sialogr
Installation Tips for DYNIX/ptx Managed
Nodes
❏ The ITO Agent software is installed on the /opt file tree. An empty
/opt file tree is created during installation of the DYNIX/ptx
operating system. By default, this file tree is positioned on the root
file system. If the root file system is too small for the installation of
ITO agents, create a symbolic link before installing ITO. For example:
if
/bigdisk is a local file system with enough free space:
mkdir -p /bigdisk/OV
ln -s /bigdisk/OV /opt/OV
In a cluster environment, you must check that /bigdisk is also
accessible from all cluster clients, and that it is mounted from all
client nodes. For example, the local file system
/bigdisk on the
cluster client must be mounted to the exported file system /bigdisk
on the cluster server.
Installation Tips for HP-UX 10.x and 11.x
Managed Nodes
You can install ITO on HP-UX 10.x and 11.x platforms using the
advanced features of HP Software Distributor (HP SD-UX) to help
reduce installation costs and time. You can use this method to install the
ITO agent software package from a software depot on a node other than
the ITO management server.
This feature is especially useful in an environment where a LAN of
managed nodes is managed by the management server over a WAN.
Instead of transferring “x” number of agent packages over the WAN line,
