Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes
General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes
Install the Agent on the Managed Node:
Use the following instructions to install the ITO AIX agent on an AIX
system that will become an ITO managed node:
1. Copy the ITO agent package to a temporary directory on the managed
node. On the management server, this agent package is located in:
/var/opt/OV/share/databases/OpC/mgd_node/vendor/ibm/\
rs6000/aix/A.05.00/RPC_DCE_[TCP|UDP]/opc_pkg.Z
If you intend to run ITO Advanced Network Security (ANS) on this
node, you also need to copy the file:
/var/opt/OV/share/databases/OpC/mgd_node/vendor/ibm/\
rs6000/aix/A.05.00/RPC_DCE_[TCP|UDP]/nsp_pkg.Z
2. Uncompress the agent package:
uncompress opc_pkg.Z
If appropriate, uncompress the ANS package, too:
uncompress nsp_pkg.Z
3. Install the agent on the node:
installp -ac -I -X -F -d<directory>/opc_pkg all
If appropriate, install ANS on the node, too:
installp -ac -I -X -F -d<directory>/nsp_pkg all
Activate the Node Using the Command Line:
You can activate the agent on the node over the net (without the GUI and
without root access) by using the following command-line steps:
1. After manually installing the agent on the node, enter:
/opt/OV/bin/OpC/install/opcactivate <ITO_mgt_server>\
-cs <server_codeset> -cn <agent_codeset>
This will activate the agent, which will then attempt to send
messages to the management server. For more information about
codesets, see Chapter 8, “ITO Language Support,” on page 333.
