IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2

Step 5: Install and configure communications for the Tivoli Performance Analyzer

You can install Tivoli Performance Analyzer to a server which also has other Tivoli Monitoring components installed, or you can install it to a separate machine. The installation procedure is similar to that for monitoring agents.

Complete the tasks described in the following table, in the order listed, to install and configure Tivoli Performance Analyzer.


Tasks for installing and configuring communications for the Tivoli Performance Analyzer

Task Procedure

The installation procedure for Windows includes steps for configuring the connection between the agent and the hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring server. On Linux or AIX, this step is performed in a separate configuration procedure (Configuring the monitoring agent), and an X11 GUI is required to configure the agent. Alternatively, you can run the following command to utilize an X terminal emulation program (such as Cygwin) that is running on another computer: 

    export DISPLAY=my_windows_pc_IP_addr:0.0

where my_windows_pc_IP_addr is the IP address of a computer that is running an X terminal emulation program. See the information opposite. Be sure to perform all referenced installation and configuration procedures.

for sites setting up autonomous operation, the installation procedure includes steps for configuring the connection between the agent and the hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server.

To install Tivoli Performance Analyzer on Windows, complete the procedure Windows: Installing a monitoring agent. To install Tivoli Performance Analyzer agent on Linux or AIX, complete the procedure Linux or UNIX: Installing a monitoring agent, including the following subsections:

  • Install the monitoring agent

  • Configure the monitoring agent

  • Change the file permissions for agents

Do not complete the procedure for starting the agent.

On the computer where Tivoli Performance Analyzer is installed, configure an ODBC data source for the data warehouse. Configure an ODBC data source for a DB2 data warehouse
If the data warehouse is located on a remote computer, copy the JDBC Universal Driver (Type 4 driver) JAR files, included with the DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows product installation, to the local computer where Tivoli Performance Analyzer is installed. You can copy the files to any directory on the local computer. The Type 4 driver file names and locations are the following: 

    db2installdir/java/db2jcc.jar
db2installdir/java/db2jcc_license_cu.
jar

where db2installdir is the directory where DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows was installed. The default DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows Version 9 installation directory is as follows:

  • for AIX: /usr/opt/db2_09_01

  • for Linux: /opt/IBM/db2/V9.1

Configure Tivoli Performance Analyzer to connect to the data warehouse. For Tivoli Performance Analyzer on Windows, see Configure Tivoli Performance Analyzer on Windows (ODBC connection). For a Tivoli Performance Analyzer on Linux or AIX, see Configure Tivoli Performance Analyzer on Linux or UNIX (JDBC connection).
Start Tivoli Performance Analyzer. Start Tivoli Performance Analyzer
