Installing the agent in a VCS environment

Install the agent for SAP WebAS on each node in the cluster.

To install the agent in a VCS environment

  1. Download the agent from the Symantec Operations Readiness Tools (SORT) site: https://sort.symantec.com/agents.

    You can download either the complete Agent Pack tar file or an individual agent tar file.

  2. Uncompress the file to a temporary location, say /tmp.
  3. If you downloaded the complete Agent Pack tar file, navigate to the directory containing the package for the platform running in your environment.

    AIX

    cd1/aix/vcs/application/sap_agent/

    vcs_version/version_agent/pkgs

    HP-UX

    cd1/hpux/generic/vcs/application/sap_agent/

    vcs_version/version_agent/pkgs

    Linux

    cd1/linux/generic/vcs/application/sap_agent/

    vcs_version/version_agent/rpms

    Solaris

    cd1/solaris/dist_arch/vcs/application/sap_agent/

    vcs_version/version_agent/pkgs

    where, dist_arch is sol_x64 or sol_sparc

    If you downloaded the individual agent tar file, navigate to the pkgs directory (for AIX, HP-UX, and Solaris), or rpms directory (for Linux).

  4. Log in as superuser.
  5. Install the package.

    AIX

    		 
    # installp -ac -d VRTSsapwebas71.rte.bff VRTSsapwebas71.rte

    HP-UX

    		 
    # swinstall -s 'pwd' VRTSsapwebas71

    Linux

    		 
    # rpm -ihv \VRTSsapwebas71-AgentVersion
-GA_GENERIC.noarch.rpm

    Solaris

    		 
    # pkgadd -d . VRTSsapwebas71
  6. After installing the agent package, you must import the agent type configuration file. See Importing the agent types files in a VCS environment.
