Installing from the Command LineUse thewinstall command to install the Tivoli/Plus forOmniGuard/EAC module. The following example is the syntax for thewinstall command and its parameter.

Note: Thewinstall command has a-l license key option forspecifying a product’s license key. Tivoli/Plus modules nolonger require a license key for installation. Therefore, you donot need to use the-l license key option when installing aTivoli/Plus module with thewinstall command.

winstall -c cdrom_path -s installation_server \-i index_file

where:

-c cdrom_path Specifies the path to the CD-ROM image.

-s installation_serverSpecifies the server on which the product is to beinstalled.

-i index_file Specifies the index file from which the product is to beinstalled (OMNIEAC.IND ).

See thewinstall command in theTME 10 Framework ReferenceManual for more information.

Tivoli/Plus IconsAlthough the Tivoli/Plus icons look like (traditional) TME 10 icons,their functionality has been altered slightly to provide a faster, moreintuitive approach to navigating and deploying the module’s features.In some cases, like a TME 10 Software Distribution file package,menu items have been removed from the icon’s pop-up menu to createa more “point and click” environment.

Page 22: Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EACpublib.boulder.ibm.com/tividd/td/OMN/omni/en_US/PDF/omni.pdf · Preface Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC User’s Guide v Chapter 3, “Resource Monitoring”

Tivoli/Plus Icons

1–12 Version 1.0

The Tivoli/Plus icons can be activated in either of two ways:

■ Opening or executing the icon by double-clicking on it with theleft mouse button. In many cases, double-clicking executes anactivity (such as a task) without opening another dialog layer.

■ Displaying the icon’s pull-down menu by pressing and holdingthe right mouse button.

Generally, either method may be used to access a particular function.There are cases, however, where a particular function can only beaccessed by one of these methods.

The following icon represents the Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EACresources:

To prevent confusion between traditional TME 10 and Tivoli/Plus forOmniGuard/EAC functionality, each Tivoli/Plus icon has beenoverlaid with the Tivoli/Plus symbol to highlight its specialfunctionality as shown in the following example:

Tivoli/Plus Unique FeaturesTivoli/Plus modules use the termprofile manager in a somewhatdifferent way than do the other TME 10 products. In a Tivoli/Plusmodule, a profile manager’s primary function is as asubscription list.A subscription list identifies the machines that tasks and jobs run onwhen executed. Subscription lists can contain machine names or otherprofile managers. Adding a profile manager to a subscription list issimply a way of subscribing several machines at a time rather thanadding each one individually.

TheTivoli/Plus User’s Guide describes the function of profilemanagers in the Tivoli/Plus modules in more detail. For moreinformation, see the section on subscribers and targets in theTivoli/Plus User’s Guide.

Starting a Tivoli/Plus ModuleAll Tivoli/Plus modules are kept in a collection under theTivoliPlusicon on the TME 10 desktop. The module’s icon is added to thiscollection after installation. The following icon represents theTivoli/Plus collection:

2Software Distribution forOmniGuard/EAC

Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC includes a hierarchical, pre-writtenTME 10 Software Distribution file package for distributing andinstalling the OmniGuard/EAC application on agents and managers.Much of the configuration activity normally associated with a TME 10Software Distribution file package has been done for you. UsingTivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC and TME 10 Software Distribution,you can distribute the OmniGuard/EAC application across amulti-platform network.

Installing OmniGuard/EAC software is a two-stage process. First, youset up the OmniGuard/EAC installation by configuring a TME 10Software Distribution file package for each type of platform on whichyou are installing OmniGuard/EAC. For example, if you are installingOmniGuard/EAC on both a Solaris and an HP-UX platform, you needto configure a TME 10 Software Distribution file package twice, oncefor each platform.

Second, you distribute the configured file packages by running theDistribute / Install OmniGuard/EAC task. This task installsOmniGuard/EAC on the selected subscribers for each platform forwhich you have configured a TME 10 Software Distribution filepackage. You can distribute OmniGuard/EAC to all configuredplatforms or choose to distribute to only a single platform.

Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC also provides a task that uses TME10 Software Distribution to replicate user profiles. For moreinformation, see “Replicating OmniGuard/EAC User Profiles” onpage 5-11.

Configuring TME 10 Software Distribution FilePackages

When configuring a TME 10 Software Distribution file package to beused with Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC, you need to establish thelocation of the OmniGuard/EAC software so that TME 10 SoftwareDistribution can locate the installation binaries and files wheninstalling OmniGuard/EAC.

Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC comes with aSetupOmniGuard/EAC Installation icon, which configures a TME 10Software Distribution file package for installing the OmniGuard/EACapplication. Once configured, the TME 10 Software Distribution filepackages are installed with theDistribute / Install OmniGuard/EACicon. (See page 2-7.)

Use the following steps to configure a TME 10 Software Distributionfile package. You need to complete a setup window for each platformon which you wish to install a particular OmniGuard/EAC application.

2. Select the type of operating system on which you will runOmniGuard/EAC from theTarget Installation Architecturepop-up menu. If the operating system is not on the list, select theDon’t check entry from the pop-up menu.

The architecture type is used during distribution as a validitycheck of the target nodes. For example, if a file package isconfigured for thehpux9 platform and an attempt is made todistribute the software to asunos4 target host, this architecturecheck prevents the mismatched installation from occurring. Thedistribution then continues on the remaining valid hosts.

Note: If theDon’t check entry is selected from theTargetInstallation Architecture pop-up menu, then thearchitecture validity check is not performed. As a result,you must manually verify the target subscription listbefore distributing the file package to preventdistributing the incorrect software images for the targethosts. (See page 2-9 for information on manuallyverifying the subscription list.)

3. (Optional) Use theFilepack Name Extension field to specify aunique, meaningful name for the file package icon and log file.

Installing OmniGuard/EACAfter you have configured a TME 10 Software Distribution filepackage for each platform on which you wish to installOmniGuard/EAC, you are ready to install OmniGuard/EAC on theseplatforms. You can distribute to all platforms for which you haveconfigured a TME 10 Software Distribution file package or to a singleplatform. Tivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC performs pre-installationchecks, such as verifying available disk space and memory. Output foreach platform is sent to the source machine in the following files:

/tmp/omnieac_install_log. platform_name[.pack_name]

whereplatform_name refers to the operating system on whichOmniGuard/EAC was installed (it may be non-existent if no targetarchitecture was specified in the file package configuration) andpack_name refers to the optionally configured file package nameextension. Consult this file on the source machine after distributing afile package to see the results of the OmniGuard/EAC installation oneach target node.

Use theDistribute / Install OmniGuard/EAC icon to installOmniGuard/EAC. If you wish to view the TME 10 SoftwareDistribution file packages that you have created, select theOpen...option from the icon’s pop-up menu.

OmniGuard/EAC Installation RequirementsTivoli/Plus for OmniGuard/EAC checks and enforces a number ofOmniGuard/EAC requirements before completing the installation.Consult the OmniGuard/EAC installation documentation for completedetails. The following requirements are checked during the installationprocess:

■ Sufficient Disk Space

For OmniGuard/EAC product installations, the file systemcontaining the/omniguard directory must have the followingdisk space available:

• Manager 15 MB

• Agent 10 MB

The /tmp directory must also have 10 MB of temporary diskspace available.

■ Supported System Architecture

File packages designated for a specified architecture are notinstalled on subscribed target nodes with a different architectureif you specify a platform in step 2 on page 2-4. This allows for asimpler subscription process because the file packages for eachplatform do not need a separate list of subscribers.

Note: There is no verification of the actual OmniGuard/EACsoftware. For example, if a Solaris file package is createdwith a path to the HP-UX OmniGuard/EAC software, anincorrect version of the OmniGuard/EAC software willbe installed on all Solaris targets.

If any of the pre-installation checks fail during file packagedistribution, an error message is added to the OmniGuard/EACinstallation log on the source host indicating on which target host theinstallation failed and the reason for the failure. By default, aninstallation failure on one target host does not prevent the file packagefrom being distributed and installed on the other hosts in the targetsubscription list.

4Enterprise Event Management

With the TME 10 Enterprise Console, Tivoli/Plus forOmniGuard/EAC provides a set of filters for identifying events and aset of predefined correlation rules to automate the task of respondingto specific events. An event is any significant change in the state ofsystem resources or an application. In the case of Tivoli/Plus forOmniGuard/EAC, an event is a change in a monitored resource thataffects OmniGuard/EAC or the system on which OmniGuard/EAC isrunning. Examples of events are the starting and stopping of a process,a failed user login, or a host becoming unavailable. Event managementprovides a predefined or automated response to specific events, so thatpotential problems are identified and responded to before causingsystem downtime. For example, the TME 10 Enterprise Console cannotify the system administrator of repeated process failures that mayindicate a more severe problem with an application or the network. Forsome events, there is no automated response except for a message tobe displayed in the TME 10 Enterprise Console.
