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 BEA WebLogic distribution file,
HALWebLogic_x.x.x.tar.Z OR
HALWebLogic_x.x.x.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 HALWebLogic_x.x.x.tar.Z OR
gzip -d HALWebLogic_x.x.x.tar.gz
# tar -xvf HALWebLogic_x.x.x.tar
Following the example above, the source directory <EXTRACT_DIR> would
be the following:
/tmp/HALWebLogic_x.x.x
