HP SIM agent insatall on Linux

jlbillman — Mon, 10 Dec 2012 18:18:05 GMT

Excuse the noob questions but I am trying to figure out HP SIM as I go.

I have a SIM server install on RedHat linux and it works well. Unfortunately I am having a problem figureing out how to install the SIM agents on my other RedHat/CentOS linux boxes. I have found plenty of doc on installing the CIM server itself. I knwo you can manage the clients without installing the agents and that is what I am doing now. I would like to install the agent(s) so I can get further information on what the servers are doing and better alerting capabilities.

Any pointers or help finding doc for what I need would be greatly appreciated.
