About installing UNIX agents
Installation prompts you to enter a series of values.
Please note the following UNIX agent installation requirements:
■ UNIX agents do not support IP aliases. If your network card is bound to
more than one IP address, the agent uses the first IP address on the network
card.
■ You must install UNIX agents as root. UNIX agents require root privileges
to run.
■ If you transfer UNIX agent installation .bin files from a Windows computer
to a UNIX computer using FTP or some other file transport method, you
must use binary transfer mode. Otherwise the installation files will be
corrupted.
