Definitions
======================================================================
Server Host The host where the Sun Management Center server is
installed and running. This system must be a Solaris
host, and contain the package SUNWessrv.
Agent Host A host where a Sun Management Center agent is
installed and running. This system must be a Solaris
host, and contain the package SUNWesagt.
Console Host A host where the Sun Management Center console is
installed and running. This system may be a Solaris or
a windows host. On Solaris it contains the package
SUNWescon.
Extracting the Distribution
======================================================================
The PrimeAlert for Sun Application Server distribution file,
HALSunAppServer_1.0.0.tar.Z OR
HALSunAppServer_1.0.0.tar.gz
must be extracted on a UNIX host before any packages can be installed.
For example, assume that the distribution file has been copied to the
following directory:
/tmp
In this case, the procedure for extracting the distribution will be:
% su -
# cd /tmp
# uncompress HALSunAppServer_1.0.0.tar.Z OR
gzip -d HALSunAppServer_1.0.0.tar.gz
# tar -xvf HALSunAppServer_1.0.0.tar
Following the example above, the source directory <EXTRACT_DIR> would
be the following:
/tmp/HALSunAppServer_1.0.0
Installation Instructions
======================================================================
There is one optional and two required steps to install this product:
1. Install the server host packages
2. Install the agent host packages
3. Install the console host packages
1. Server Packages (Solaris)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To install the "PrimeAlert for Sun Application Server" module packages

3. Run the install script
% su -
# cd <EXTRACT_DIR> (i.e. /tmp/HALSunAppServer_1.0.0)
# ./HALSunAppServer-install.sh
Note: During installation on the server host, when asked whether you
want to install the packages for the agent layer, answer "y"
only if this is the agent that will be used to monitor the Sun
Java System Application Server. Answer "y" when asked to install
the console layer packages, if the console packages are installed.
In general, the agent host packages should only be installed on
hosts that will be used to monitor Java System Application
Server.
