IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Virtual Environments, Version 7.2

Remote installation and configuration

You can install the monitoring agent remotely from the Tivoli® Enterprise Portal or from the command line.

When installing the agent remotely, you must provide the configuration values for the agent to operate. See Configuration values.

To install from the portal, see the IBM® Tivoli Monitoring Installation and Setup Guide.

To remotely install or configure an agent through the Tivoli Enterprise Portal, you must have installed the application support for that agent (Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server, Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server, and Tivoli Enterprise Portal). You must also have installed the agent bundle into the Remote Deploy Depot.

For information about displaying the configuration options that are available to use with the configureSystem or addSystem commands see "tacmd describeSystemType" in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Command Reference.

If you are using the command line, the following command is an example of remote installation and configuration for Windows operating systems:

tacmd addSystem -n Primary:Server_name:NT -t xa
-p  DEFAULT_CREDENTIALS.KXA_DOMAIN_USERNAME="domain\username"
 DEFAULT_CREDENTIALS.KXA_PASSWORD="value"
 XENAPP_HOSTS_CONNECTIONS:Server_name.REQUIRED_FOR_REMOTE_CONFIG="true"
 XENAPP_HOSTS_CONNECTIONS.Server_name.REQUIRED_FOR_REMOTE_CONFIG="true"
