Requirements and agent installation and configuration
Agent installation and configuration requires the use of the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Installation and Setup Guide and agent-specific installation and configuration information.
To install and configure IBM Tivoli Agentless Monitoring for AIX Operating Systems, use the procedures for installing monitoring agents in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Installation and Setup Guide along with the agent-specific installation and configuration information.
If you are installing silently by using a response file, see "Performing a silent installation of IBM Tivoli Monitoring" in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Installation and Setup Guide.
With the self-describing agent capability, new or updated IBM Tivoli Monitoring agents using IBM Tivoli Monitoring V6.2.3 or later can become operational after installation without having to perform additional product support installation steps. To take advantage of this capability, see "Enabling self-describing agent capability at the hub monitoring server" in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Installation and Setup Guide. Also, see "Self-describing monitoring agents" in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Administrator's Guide.
