Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes

General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes

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 also 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.

Manual Solaris Agent Installation

In some situations, it may be desirable to install the Sun Solaris agent
software without using the management server. Manual installation
prepares the workstation to become an ITO managed node when it is
later connected to the network. This is useful if many workstations are
prepared in a central location, or if you want to avoid using the root
connection over the network that is necessary for a standard agent
installation.

Install the Agent on the Managed Node:

Use the following instructions to install the ITO Solaris agent on a
Solaris workstation that will become an ITO managed node:

1. Copy the ITO appropriate agent package (NCS, DCE TCP/UDP) to a

temporary directory on the managed node. On the management
server, the agent packages are located in:

/var/opt/OV/share/databases/OpC/mgd_node/vendor/sun/\

sparc/solaris/A.05.00/RPC_[NCS|DCE_TCP|DCE_UDP]/\

opc_pkg.Z

NOTE

If you intend to run ITO Advanced Network Security (ANS) on this node,
you also need to copy the following file from the same directory:

nsp_pkg.Z

2. Uncompress and untar the agent package:

uncompress opc_pkg.Z

tar xvf opc_pkg

If appropriate, uncompress and untar the ANS package, too:

uncompress nsp_pkg.Z
