Installing the Package

Home  Previous  Next

This chapter provides a step by step procedure to install a monitoring solution package:

1.From the computer on which you want to install the package, log on to TrueSight Operations Management.
2.(Optional) To filter the list of installation packages, select an operating system from the Filter by Operating System list.
3.Click the link for the installation package that you want to download.
4.Through the browser's download dialog box, save the installation package in a temporary file.
5.Extract the installation package that is appropriate for your operating system. The package is extracted to the bmc_products directory on the current host.
6.From the bmc_products directory, run the installation utility for your operating system:
(UNIX or Linux) RunSilentInstall.sh
(Microsoft Windows) RunSilentInstall.exe

The package is installed on the current host. If the package includes a BMC PATROL Agent, the agent sends a configuration request by passing its tags to Central Monitoring Administration, via the Integration Service. Central Monitoring Administration evaluates policies that match the tags, determines the final configuration to be applied, and sends the configuration information back to the agent. Monitoring is based on the configuration information received by the agent.
