====================
This fix image contains the following files:
-  6.30-TIV-ITM_LFA-FP0004.tar.gz
-  6.30-TIV-ITM_LFA-FP0004.README
5.0 Installation instructions
==================
  5.1 Before installing the fix
  -------------------------------
  - The prerequisites listed under section 3.1 entitled 'Prerequisites
    for this fix' must be installed before this fix can be installed.
    
  - For the purpose of this README, the symbol <CANDLEHOME> is the
    IBM Tivoli Monitoring installation directory. The default value
    for CANDLEHOME is '/opt/IBM/ITM' on UNIX systems and 'C:\IBM\ITM'
    on Windows systems.
  - Before installing this fix on UNIX systems, set the environment
    variable CANDLEHOME to the IBM Tivoli Monitoring installation
    directory.
        
    For example:
    > CANDLEHOME=/opt/IBM/ITM
    > export CANDLEHOME  
 
  - Because there is no uninstall utility for this fix, make sure to
    perform a backup of your environment before installing this fix.
  - NOTE: Before installing the LO x86-64 bit agent, you must
    un-install the WINNT 32-bit version of the agent and the 32/64
    bit compatibility package.

  5.2 Local agent update
  --------------------------
  For installation instructions, see the Log File Agent User's Guide
  v6.3.0:
  http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSTFXA_6.3.0/com.ibm.itm.doc_6.3/logfile/logfileagent_user.htm?lang=en
 
  Note:
  1. The PowerPC little-endian installation image is located in the
     PPC_LE directory of the installation image. Invoke ./install.sh
     from this directory.
  2. On Windows systems, when the installation completes, the
     Readme.txt displays "Welcome to IBM Tivoli Monitoring V6.3.0 Fix
     Pack 7." This is the installer level and Readme and is not an
     error.
  5.3 Remote agent update
  ----------------------------
  1. Transfer the archive file 6.3.0-TIV-ITM_LFA-FP0004.tar.gz to a
     temporary directory on the IBM Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring
     Server system.  For the purpose of this README, the symbol <TEMP>
     represents the fully qualified path to this directory. Note: On
     Windows systems, this path includes the drive letter.
  2. Expand the archive file using the "tar" command on UNIX systems or
     an extract utility on Windows systems. This step creates a directory
     structure that contains fixes for all of the supported platforms.
  3. To add the agent fix bundles into the remote deploy depot, use
     the "tacmd addBundles" command found in $CANDLEHOME/bin on UNIX
     systems or in %CANDLE_HOME%\bin on Windows systems. For more
     information on the "tacmd addBundles" command, see the IBM Tivoli
     Monitoring Administrator's Guide.
     Note:
     1. The prerequisite Log File Agent bundles must also be in the
     depot, to ensure successful completion of the remote agent update.
     2. The 6.3.0-TIV-ITM_LFA-FP000<n> bundles must be removed from the
     depot, using the "tacmd removeBundles" command.
     For example: tacmd removeBundles -t lo -v 06300000<n>
     On UNIX systems,
     if the fix was expanded to <TEMP>/KLO_DVD-201905131211-91331:
     > $CANDLEHOME/bin/tacmd addBundles -n
                             -i <TEMP>/KLO_DVD-201905131211-91331/unix
     
     On Windows systems,
     if the fix was expanded to <TEMP>\KLO_DVD-201905131211-91331:
     > %CANDLE_HOME%\bin\tacmd addBundles -n
                              -i <TEMP>\KLO_DVD-201905131211-91331\WINDOWS
 
     
       where:
         -n indicates that prerequisite bundles are not automatically
            added. The -n parameter must be used because the fix
            directory does not contain any prerequisites that the fix
            might require.  Please see Section 3.1 for the prerequisites
            for this fix.
         -i is the directory that contains the deployment bundles to be
          added to the depot.
  4. To log in to the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring server, and deploy
     the fix to the appropriate nodes where the agent is running, use
     the following "tacmd" commands.  For more information on the
     "tacmd login" and "tacmd updateAgent" commands, see the IBM Tivoli
     Monitoring Administrator's Guide.
     On UNIX systems:
     > $CANDLEHOME/bin/tacmd login -s <server>
                                   -u <itmuser>
                                   -p <password>
                                   
     > $CANDLEHOME/bin/tacmd listSystems
          
     The output shows the Managed System Name for the OS agent on the
     remote system to be updated. Use this value as the target of the
     "tacmd updateAgent" command.
     
     > $CANDLEHOME/bin/tacmd updateAgent -t lo
                                         -n <Managed system name>
                                         -v 06300400
     On Windows systems:
     > %CANDLE_HOME%\bin\tacmd login -s <server>
                                     -u <itmuser>
                                     -p <password>
                                    
     > %CANDLE_HOME%\bin\tacmd listSystems
          
     The output shows the Managed System Name for the OS agent on the
     remote system to be updated. Use this value as the target of the
     "tacmd updateAgent" command.
     
     > %CANDLE_HOME%\bin\tacmd updateAgent -t LO
                                           -n <Managed system name>    
                                           -v 06300400
                              
     Note:
     - The component (-t) for the "tacmd updateAgent" command is
       specified as two characters (LO), not three characters (KLO).
     - The node (-n) for the "tacmd updateAgent" command is the managed
       system name of the operating system (OS) agent to be updated.
       The target node for the "tacmd updateAgent" command is always
       an OS agent.
  5.2 Agent support update
  ------------------------------
  Fix pack 6.3.0-TIV-ITM_LFA-FP0003 includes new certificates
  in the agent support files which need to be installed. If you have
  already installed these updates, there are no additional installation
  steps. Otherwise, install the updates to the Tivoli Enterprise
  Monitoring Server, Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server, or Tivoli
  Enterprise Portal Desktop. For more information about installing
  application support, see Installing and enabling application support
  in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Installation and Setup Guide.
 
6.0 Additional installation information
========================
  6.1 Installation instructions for agent baroc file
  -----------------------------------------------------
  There are no updates to the baroc files included in this fix or any
  of the superseded fixes.  No additional installation steps are
  required.
 
  6.2 Verifying the update
  ----------------------------
  1. To verify the agent was updated correctly, use the "tacmd" command
     to view the agent's current version after the agent is restarted.
     You are required to log in to a Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring
     Server prior to viewing the agent version.  
                 
     For example:
     On UNIX systems, where $CANDLEHOME is the IBM Tivoli Monitoring
     installation directory, the default location is '/opt/IBM/ITM'.   
    
     > $CANDLEHOME/bin/tacmd login -s <server>
                                   -u <itmuser>
                                   -p <password>
     > $CANDLEHOME/bin/tacmd listSystems -t LO
     On Windows systems, where %CANDLE_HOME% is the IBM Tivoli
     Monitoring installation directory, the default location
     is 'C:\IBM\ITM'.   
     > %CANDLE_HOME%\bin\tacmd login -s <server>
                                     -u <itmuser>
                                     -p <password>
                                     
     > %CANDLE_HOME%\bin\tacmd listSystems -t LO
     Note: The component (-t) for the "tacmd listSystems" command is
     specified as two characters (LO), not three characters (KLO).
     When the agent update is successful, the agent version is:
     06.30.04.00.
    
     After the agent is restarted, you can also use the GUI to verify
     the agent was successfully updated.
    
     For the agent on Windows systems, the version number is
     06.30.04.00.                                         
  2. To verify all the agent components were updated correctly, use
     the "cinfo" command on Linux or UNIX systems or the "kincinfo"
     command on Windows systems. The sample output below shows the
     minimum versions of IBM Tivoli Monitoring framework component,
     IBM SDK Java Technology Edition Java Runtime Environment (JRE),
     and the version of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server, Tivoli
     Enterprise Monitoring Server, and Tivoli Enterprise Portal
     Desktop systems after this fix pack has been successfully applied.
     
     Note: The displayed date of the build might not be accurate. This
     is a known problem.      
                            
     On UNIX or Linux systems (except PowerPC little-endian):
     ---------------------------------------------------------
     To validate that all components have been installed, run the
     following command:
     ./cinfo -i    
     
     For example:
     > $CANDLEHOME/bin/cinfo -i
