IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Application Diagnostics, Version 7.1.0.1
Summary of permissions required for installing and configuring the data collector - J2EE Agent
This appendix summarizes the permissions required for the user that installs and configures the data collector for J2EE application servers:
Required permissions common to all J2EE application servers:
- It is recommended that you use the application server user to install and configure the data collector. On UNIX platform (AIX/HP-UX/Linux/Solaris), if the user of the application server and the data collector are not the same, the user of the application server should be a member of the user group for the data collector.
- Read permissions to the <AppServer_home> directory and to all subfiles and subdirectories
- Read, Write, and Create New File permissions to the <DC_home> directory
- Read and Execute File permissions for the JDK directory used for starting the application server.
- Read, Write, and Create New File permissions to the common log directory (TIVOLI_COMMON_DIR). In Windows, the default is C:\ibm\tivoli\common. In UNIX, the default is /var/ibm/tivoli/common.
- Read, Write, and Create New File permissions to the directory specified in -is:log or -V LOG_DIR parameter.
Permissions for the application server after the data collector has been installed and successfully configured:
- Read, Write, and Create New File permissions to the common log directory (TIVOLI_COMMON_DIR). In Windows, the default is C:\ibm\tivoli\common. In UNIX, the default is /var/ibm/tivoli/common
- Read and Write permissions to the garbage collection log file.
- Read, Write, and Create New File permissions to the server-instance-specific runtime directory under <DC_home>/runtime
The permissions for this directory are changed automatically by the Configuration Tool
