To Unpack Package Formatted Deliverables of a J2EE Agent in Policy Agent 2.2

Follow the steps described in this task to unpack a compressed file that is named in the following manner:

appserver_version_agent_2.2_SUNWam_xx.tar.gz

The two following facts apply to the this compressed file: It is for Solaris systems only and the distribution files contained within this compressed file are in package format.

1. Issue the following command:

   # gzip -dc appserver_version_agent_2.2_SUNWam_xx.tar.gz | tar xvf -

   appserver_version

   is the name of the specific deployment container, followed by an underscore “_”, followed by the version

   xx

   is an abbreviated name for the specific deployment container

   For example, the command to unpack the archive of Policy Agent 2.2 for Sun Java System Application Server 8.1 is as follows:

   # gzip -dc SJS_Appserver_81_agent_2.2_SUNWamas.tar.gz | tar xvf -

   For other J2EE agents, the file names are different, but the naming format is the same. To see the preceding command specific to your J2EE agent, see Example 3–3.

2. Issue the following command:

   # pkgadd -d

   By default, this command distributes the J2EE agent packages to the following directory:

   /opt/j2ee_agents

Purpose of This Task

The preceding steps unpack the archive and provide you with the agent deliverables for Policy Agent 2.2 for Sun Java System Application Server 8.1.
