Location of the Web Agent Base Directory in Policy Agent 3.0

Unpacking the web agent binaries creates a directory named web_agents, within which an agent-specific directory is created. Therefore, this directory name is different for each agent. For example, sjsws_agent is the directory name applicable to Agent for Sun Java System Web Server.

This agent-specific directory is the Policy Agent base directory, referred to throughout this guide as the PolicyAgent-base directory. For the full path to the PolicyAgent-base directory, see Example 3–1, which follows.

Example 3–1 Policy Agent Base Directory

The directory you choose in which to unpack the web agent binaries is referred to here as Agent-HomeDirectory. For illustration purposes, the following example uses Policy Agent 3.0 for Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 to demonstrate the path to the PolicyAgent-base. Be aware, that the directory sjsws_agent is only an example. This directory will vary from agent to agent:

Agent-HomeDirectory/web_agents/sjsws_agent
