This procedure will guide you through the process of installing Watch4net APG 5 on Unix/Linux. Change the permissions of the installer: chmod 740 setup-linux-x86-v50.sh ./setup-linux-x86-v50.sh Read and accept the license conditions: Do you accept EULA [y/N] ? y Unless you want to install APG in a different directory, just press enter: Enter the installation directory [/opt/APG]: Unless you have special requirements, just type "y": Install in /opt/APG [Y/n] ? y Unless have special requirements, just press "Enter": Enter the user account we should create and use [apg]: Unless you have special requirements, just press "d": Proceed with [D]efault or [m]anual installation? d Installing APG licensesCopy the APG licenses to a temporary directory, decompress the zip file: cp Licenses.zip /tmp/ unzip /tmp/Licenses.zip Run manage-licenses.sh with the option "install" to install all the licenses you want: cd /tmp/ for e in `ls *.lic`; do /opt/APG/bin/manage-licenses.sh install $e; done Configuring APGThis step will show you the basic configuration for SMART using smartsDiscovery. The configuration of SNMP will be done in the Front-end: Make a backup copy of the SMARTS configuration file: cp /opt/APG/Collecting/Smarts-Collector/Default/conf/sm-discovery.xml /opt/APG/Collecting/Smarts-Collector/Default/conf/sm-discovery.xml.backup Edit the file sm-discovery.xml: vi /opt/APG/Collecting/Smarts-Collector/Default/conf/sm-discovery.xml In the following section change the values "IP_Address_or_Hostname", "username" (if you wish so) and "password": <authentication> <broker>IP_Address_or_Hostname:426</broker> <domains refresh-period="240"> <default-username>admin</default-username> <default-password>changeme</default-password> </domains> </authentication> Starting APG /opt/APG/bin/manage-modules.sh service start all You should see a serie of messages as: * Starting 'mysql Default'...
