IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2

Linux or UNIX: Installing a remote monitoring server

Use the following steps to install and configure the remote monitoring server on a Linux or UNIX computer.

Table 1. Steps for installing a remote monitoring server on a Linux or UNIX computer
Steps Where to find information

Configure the remote monitoring server. Configuring the remote monitoring server
Add application support to the remote monitoring server. Use the same instructions as for adding application support to the hub monitoring server. Adding application support to the hub monitoring server
Note: Under both Linux and UNIX, IBM® Tivoli® Monitoring (version 6.1 fix pack 6 and subsequent) supports multiple remote monitoring servers on the same LPAR or computer (however, it does not support multiple hub monitoring servers on the same computer). Note that each instance of a remote monitoring server must have its own network interface card and its own unique IP address; in addition, each monitoring server must be installed on its own disk. These limitations isolate each remote monitoring server instance so you can service each one independently: you can upgrade a remote Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server without affecting another server's code base and shared libraries.
