This MDV (IF28) contains a regular ITM upgrade package, and utilizes the standard ITM installation methods; including silent install and remote deploy. However, IF28's APAR only impacted two agents, and only those are included. The agents are:

• Transaction Reporter (TO)
• Transaction Collector (TU)

Installing

On machines where you have Transaction Collector (TU) or Transaction Reporter (TO) agents installed, follow the following instructions:

On Windows systems, extract the files from the archive and double-click WINDOWS\setup.exe. Follow the prompts to install the update.

On UNIX systems, extract the installer from the archive using the tar -xvf <filename.tar> command. Then, execute the installer using the ./install.sh command. Follow the prompts to install the update.

Installing application support for TEPS/TEMS
For each monitoring agent installed, you must install agent-specific application support on IBM Tivoli Monitoring components.

If installing components separately, the following order is recommended:

1. Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server
2. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server
3. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Desktop Client
4. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server Browser client (for Linux and UNIX Only)
