Run the Linux Setup Agent

The Linux Setup Agent starts automatically when you reboot the server. Use it to configure the system environment.

1. On the Welcome screen, click Forward.
2. Read the License Agreement, select Yes, I agree to the License Agreement, and click Forward.
3. On the Software Updates screen, if you'd like to register your system for updates, select Yes, I'd like to register now. Otherwise, select No, I prefer to register at a later time, and click Forward.
4. On the Finish Updates Setup screen, click Forward.
5. On the Create User screen, leave the fields blank, click Forward, and then Yes to continue. The STA server does not require a non-administrative user.
6. In the Date and Time screen:
   1. Set the current date and time.
   2. Select the Synchronize date and time over the network check box.
   3. Add or remove the desired NTP servers (obtained from your IT administrator), and then click Forward.

      Note:

      To ensure that STA data and log files are correct, the date and time on the STA server must be correct. Additionally, any library connected to STA must also have the correct time.
7. On the Kdump screen, do not select Enable kdump?. Then click Finish.
   The system reboots.
8. After the system reboots, log in as the system root user:
   1. Click Other....
   2. Enter username root, and then click Log In.
   3. Enter the system root password, and then click Log In again.
   4. If a message appears about being logged in as root super user, you may ignore the message.
9. Confirm the Linux release and update level. This step is optional.

   # cat /etc/*-release
