About installing UNIX agents

Installation prompts you to enter a series of values.

Please note the following UNIX agent installation requirements:

■

UNIX agents do not support IP aliases. If your network card is bound to 
more than one IP address, the agent uses the first IP address on the network 
card.

■

You must install UNIX agents as root. UNIX agents require root privileges 
to run.

■

If you transfer UNIX agent installation .bin files from a Windows computer 
to a UNIX computer using FTP or some other file transport method, you 
must use binary transfer mode. Otherwise the installation files will be 
corrupted.
