Installing the Change Manager Agent Module on a Master System

The Sun Management Center 3.5 Agent component must be installed before the Change Manager 1.0.1 agent module. None of the Sun Management Center add-ons are supported on master systems that include the Change Manager 1.0.1 agent module.

For procedures that describe the installation of Sun Management Center 3.5 software, see the following sections in the Sun Management Center 3.5 Installation and Configuration Guide:

• To install software by using the GUI installation program, es-guiinst, see “To Install Sun Management Center 3.5 on the Solaris Platform.”

• To install software by using the command-line installation program, es-inst, see “To Install Sun Management Center Using the es-inst Script.”

When you set up the Sun Management Center 3.5 Agent component on your master system, ensure that the following values match those used to set up the Sun Management Center server software:

• Password used to generate security keys

• SNMPv1 community string

Before you begin the installation of Change Manager software, see Master System Requirements to understand the hardware and software requirements for a master system.

The following procedure shows how to install the Change Manager 1.0.1 agent module on a master system.
