You can use the Tivoli® Enterprise Portal to install
the monitoring agent remotely.
Before you install the ITCAM for SOA monitoring
agent on a remote system, the application support files must be installed
on the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server (including
the browser client support files), hub and remote Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server, and Tivoli Enterprise Portal desktop
clients.
Before you can install the ITCAM for SOA monitoring
agent on a remote system, you must first deploy an OS monitoring agent
to the remote system. See the Tivoli Monitoring: Installation
and Setup Guide for details.
To install the monitoring agent remotely with
Tivoli Monitoring, complete
the following procedure:
- From the physical Navigator view in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal, navigate
to the computer where you want to install the monitoring agent.
- Right-click the remote computer and select Add Managed
System.
- Select Monitoring Agent for Composite Application Manager
for SOA and click OK.
- The New Managed System Configuration window
is displayed. Accept the default to use the local system account or
specify a valid account and password.
- Click Finish. The monitoring agent installation
process is started; you can track its progress in the Deployment
Status workspace.
This procedure installs the monitoring agent and the ITCAM for SOA-specific
data collectors.
Restriction: The procedure does not install
the Data Collector for WebSphere® Message
Broker. To install the Data Collector for WebSphere Message Broker on a remote system,
copy the ITCAM for SOA installation media to the remote system, run
the installation wizard, and select the Data Collector for WebSphere Message Broker from
the list of features that are available for installation.
To install and configure the ITCAM Data Collector for WebSphere, see Installing and configuring ITCAM Data Collector for WebSphere from a command prompt.
