To Generate a State File for a Web Agent Installation

The following task describes how to generate a state file for a web agent installation

1. Change to the directory in which you unpacked the agent binaries.

2. Issue the command that applies as follows:

   java agent_WINNT_iis6 -saveState filename
   

   -saveState

   An option that saves all of your responses to installation prompts in a state file.

   filename

   Represents the name that you choose for the state file.

3. Enter the installation information as described in Installing Agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0.

   Your answers to the prompts are recorded in the state file. When the installation is complete, the state file is created in the same directory where the installation program is located.

   Note –

   When generated, a state file will have read permissions for all users. However, because the state file contains clear text passwords, change the file permissions to restrict read and write access to the user root.
