Use the wizard to install the FamMonitor installation package on your Windows database.

Before you begin

  • The FamMonitor installation package must be accessible. Download from Fix Central or obtain from your Guardium representative.
  • If S-TAP is installed, it is V11.0 and higher.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the database server using a system administrator account.
  2. Unload and unzip the FamMonitor installation package on the database.
  3. Double-click Setup.exe to open the wizard.
  4. Accept the licensing agreement and click Next.
  5. Follow the prompts. Most customers prefer Setup type as Typical. The custom setup gives a custom install directory.
    Use the Appliance Address(es) field to type in additional Guardium® hostnames or IP addresses. If there is a failover, the FAM agent attempts to connect to the next appliance on the list.
  6. When the installation is complete, click Finish to close the installer.
  7. On the Guardium system, in the Windows Services, verify that IBM Security Guardium FAM for Windows is Running.
