Document for Fresh Agent Install & Clone
Agent Install Method
Below are the
servers which we have installed the agent with above two methods.
Method 1:
Steps for Fresh Agent Install:
Pre-Checks: (Need to perform all the nodes if
it is multiple OMS)
1. Verify the following commands from agent
server:
$nslookup <OMS
hostname>
$ping <OMS
hostname>
$telnet <OMS
hostname> <upload port number> ( port# is agent upload port) ex: 3872
$wget
--no-check-certificate https:// <OMS hostname>:4900/empbs/upload
2. Verify the following commands from OMS server:
$nslookup <Agent
hostname>
$ping <Agent
hostname>
$telnet <Agent
hostname> port 22
If any of the above
commands fail then this is most likely a network issue and needs network or
sysadmin to troubleshoot.
