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.
ESROOT: This parameter only applies for a Solaris
installation host. This directory is determined by
the user while installing Sun MC; the default value
is $ESROOT. To determine the value of $ESROOT on a
SunMC agent host, run the following command (for Solaris
10+ zoned environment, run the following command in a
non-sparse root zone):
# echo "`pkgparam SUNWesagt BASEDIR`/SUNWsymon"
Extracting the Distribution
======================================================================
The PrimeAlert Adapter for Tivoli distribution file,
HALsmxtiv_[version].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
# gzip -d HALsmxtiv_[version].tar.gz
# tar -xvf HALsmxtiv_[version].tar
Following the example above, the source directory [EXTRACT_DIR] would
be the following:
/tmp/HALsmxtiv_[version]
