Installing the custom agent

You can install the custom agent in one of the following directories:

On UNIX:

• /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/custom_type/
• /opt/VRTSagents/ha/bin/custom_type/
• A user-defined directory. For example /myagents/custom_type/. Note that you must configure the AgentDirectory attribute for this option.

  Note   Create the custom_type directory at only one of these locations.

Add the agent binary and the script entry points to the custom_type directory.

VCS looks for the agent binary and script entry points in these directories in the following order:

On UNIX:

• Directory specified in the AgentDirectory attribute
• /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/custom_type//opt/VRTSagents/ha/bin/custom_type/

  Note   To package the agent, see the documentation for the operating system. When setting up the Solaris pkginfo file for the installation of agents that are to run in zones, set the following variable: SUNW_PKG_ALLZONES=true.
