CSA 5.1 Agent Installation on Microsoft Clusters with Teamed Broadcom NICs

I'm searching all over Cisco.com for information on installing CSA 5.1 agent on Microsoft Clusters with Teamed Broadcom NICs, but I can't find any information other than "this is supported" in the installation guide.
Does anyone know if there is a process or procedure that should be followed to install this? For example, some questions that come to mind are:
- Do the cluster services are needed to be stopped?
- Should the cluster be broken and then rebuilt?
- Is there any documentation indicating this configuration is approved by Microsoft?
- Are there case studies or other documentation on previous similar installations and/or lessons learned?
Thanks in advance,
Ken

Ken, you might just end up being the case study! Do you have a non-production cluster to with?
If not and you already completed pilot testing, you probably have an idea of what you want to do with the agent. Do you have to stop the cluster for other software installations? I guess you might ask MS about breaking the cluster it since it's their cluster.
The only caveat I've seen with teamed NICs is when the agent tries to contact the MC it may timeout a few times. You could probably increase the polling time if this happens.
I'd create an agent kit that belongs to a group in test mode with minimal or no policies attached to test first and install it on one of the nodes. If that works ok you could gradually increase the policies and rules until you are comfortable that it is tuned correctly and then switch to protect mode.
Hope this helps...

MBSA Windows Update Agent installation

I'm implementing MBSA on our domain. I've worked through the various firewall issues, etc. Next I received a Security Update Scan Result that "Computer has an older version of the client and security database demands a newer
version. Current version is and minmum required version is ." This is pasted directly from the screen. It appears information is missing from the message.
Based on research of the message, I reran the scan with the "Configure computers for Microsoft Update and scanning prerequisites" option selected. Then I get the result "Windows Update Agent installation succeeded.Restart
the target computer to have Windows Update Agent updated completely." Scanning the computer after a restart just repeats the same results. Looking in the WindowsUpdate.log on the target computer, there are messages stating that 3
CBS packages were evaluated and that each is not applicable. "WUESTUP has finished. Exit code is 0. Reboot is NOT needed." I have checked and the
wuaueng.dll version is 7.6.7600.256, which I believe is the latest.
I have seen this result on multiple Windows 7 computers I have tested. None have worked so far. What is causing MBSA to report one thing and the target to indicate something else?

At this point, no. Since I didn't turn up an answer here, I've had to set this aside for more pressing matters. I hope to get back to it at some point soon.
If you are fortunate enough to find an answer, please be sure to share it here.

Have you specify relative path or full of weblogic startup script? How's permission for user invoking startup script?
Excerpt from the docs as below:
Startup Script Location: Enter the full path to the startup script that is used to start your BEA WebLogic Server instance.
Have you installed the agent on the admin server instead of the managed server? It should be managed server.
Is this WebLogic clustered environment ? If it is a clustered setup; then you need to follow some specific steps to configure the managed servers. You are better off installing the agent on a managed server and copy the agent changes (CLASSPATH and JAVA_OPTIONS) to all the server instances. Some folks also prefer to copy these changes in commEnv.sh (easy way out) but we do not recommend this route since the server related JAVA_OPTIONS can be specific to each BEA server instance. Please note that the agent installer does not understand the template of admin server script. So, for a clustered environment :
1. Remove the present agent, restore the admin server script.
2. Install the agent on a managed server.
3. If there are more than one managed servers, put the agent startup script related changes manually in each of the managed servers.
4. Also note that you can start managed servers from console or command line. Depending on where you start managed servers, you will have to copy the agent changes to the respective files.
If it is not a clustered environment; follow 1 and 2 only. Could try it out and let us know what are your findings? Jerry

DPM Agent Installation Failed with Error code =0x80070643

Hi,
We had an Virtual Machine TFS server 2010 which had SQL server 2008 R2 installed on it.
On this Server we were running an DPM 2010 agent and it was fine.
Then I had uninstalled DPM 2010 agent and try to Install DPM 2012 R2 Agent on this Virtual Machine it gives me error 0x80070643. And for other VM the agent installation is fine.
When I checked on DPM agent logs in Windows/Temp folder it gives me below error.
I had tried with Deleting DPM Registry but still the Problem remains same.
Thanks

Hi,
Earlier the Protected Server had DPM 2010 Agent installed and while Troubleshooting I had already deleted the
HKLM\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Setup Registry
And Tried to Reinstall Agent but still it gives same error.

Linux Agent installer location

Hi SCOM community,
My aim is to manually install SCOM agents on different Linux machines, the purpose is to create templates for a Windows Azure Pack deployment.
Anyway, i found many blogs and articles describing how to install the agents, but i'm not able to find the agent installer. the "scx..." files. I looked a "C:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft SC 2012 R2\OperationsManager\Server\AgentManagement\UnixAgents"
but this folder is empty. Even after the installation of the UNIX MP (around 400 MB), the folder is still empty.
Please, where can i find or download those agent files ?
Thanks
Regards, Samir Farhat Infrastructure Consultant

Samir,
One further comment, as you mentioned that you would preinstall the OpsMgr agent for use in Azure Pack templates...
When the OpsMgr UNIX/Linux agent is installed, a post-install step runs a utility to generate a certificate that will later be signed by the OpsMgr server. This certificate must have the hostname/domain name of the computer accurately represented.
When you preinstall the OpsMgr agent in a VHD for use in a VM template, the VHD will have a certificate referencing the name of the template, and not the hostname/domain name after the template has been deployed. In order to regenerate the certificate
with the current hostname/domain name of the deployed VM, you will need to run the command:
/opt/microsoft/scx/bin/tools/scxsslconfig -f
You can simply add this as a RunOnce command in your VM template or ResExtPkg to force this to run after the hostname/domain name have been set during VM deployment.

Agent Installation and Behavior of VMs

I have just recently installed SCVMM Agents on my Hyper-V Clusters. I have noticed following things which I would like to know more about and whether there is a workaround to that:
1. When I look at the state of the virtual machines part of the cluster in Failover Cluster Manager, they appear to be normal and working, but when I look into the SCVMM Console, sometimes it shows as stopped and sometimes shows as Host Not Responding
and sometimes depicts the correct state. What could be causing that? SCVMM and Hyper-V Hosts are all on the same network. Is there a way to fix this?
2. Some of the machines that I was live migrating easily through Failover Cluster Manager are providing strange options when I am migrating them through SCVMM Console such as when I was moving one of the nodes that is using a shared VHDx
and is part of the Guest Cluster, the wizard provided me with an option to store the VHDX on any of the CSVs available. Why is it asking me so? Is it moving the Storage of the VM along with the Configuration as well? I get the same option when
I live migrate a machine that is part of a Guest Cluster that is using Fiber Adapter and has direct connectivity to the SAN. Also, machines were highly available when in Failover Cluster Manager, but here both of these Guest Clusters are appearing
as not Highly Available. Why is it so? How to rectify it.
3. After the Agent Installation what are the basic configuration settings that must be done. Any article/blog would be appreciated.
I would love to know about these items. Thanks in advance.

I don't know if I can answer everything.
SCVMM has the assumption that when a machine is HA, it is stored on Shared Storage. That equals CSV or SMB3 share (I believe). And that means all of the components of the VM. So SCVMM has to properly identify your shared storage.
Kristian has a little here:
http://kristiannese.blogspot.com/2011/12/make-vm-highly-available-vmm-2012.html
I am hoping he wanders along as he might be able to give deeper details.

Edited by: Manjug77 on Oct 29, 2009 2:45 PM

Hello Manjunath.
This looks like a configuration problem.
Please check if IP_NETWORK is set to the name of your network adapter and
if your IP_ADDRESS and IP_SUBNET are set to the correct values.
Note:
- IP_ADDRESS is a new IP address that is not used by any machine in the network.
- IP_NETWORK is optional
If you still get the same error debug your db2mscs.exe-call:
See the answer from Adam Wilson:
Can you run the following and check the output:
db2mscs -f <path>\db2mscs.cfg -d <path>\debug.txt
I suspect you may see the following error in the debug.txt:
Create_IP_Resource fnc_errcode 5045
If you see the fnc_errcode 5045
In that case, error 5045 which is a windows error, means
ERROR_CLUSTER_NETWORK_NOT_FOUND. This error is occuring because windows
couldn't find the "public network" as indicated by IP_NETWORK.
Windows couldn't find the MSCS network called "public network". The
IP_NETWORK parameter must be set to an MSCS Network., so running the
Cluster Admin GUI and expanding the Cluster Configuration->Network to
view all MSCS networks that were available and if "public network" was
one of them.
However, the parameter IP_NETWORK is optional and you could be commented
out. In that case the first MSCS network detected by the system was used.
Best regards,
Hinnerk Gildhoff

FAM 8.0, Tomcat J2EE agent installation problem

Hello:
I was able to install FAM 8.0 in Tomcat 6.0.14 on Ubuntu (7.04) Linux. Everything seems fine. In the end, the applications I want to use with OpenSSO also make use of Tomcat 6.0.14. I noticed on the opensso users email list that the Tomcat 3.0 agent won't be available until early next year; but that the 2.2 agents should work with FAM 8.0. So, I got the the J2EE agent for Tomcat - SJS_Tomcat_Server_55_agent_2.2-01.tar.gz. The documentation makes no references to Tomcat 6, and I'm hoping this is due to the fact that Tomcat 6 was not available when the documentation was written.
Does this agent work with Tomcat 6? I have this problem when installing the agent (agentadmin --install):
$CATALINA_HOME environment variable is the root of the tomcat
installation.
[ ? : Help, < : Back, ! : Exit ]
Enter the $CATALINA_HOME environment variable: /Users/jas/Development/opensso/tryout/apache-tomcat-6.0.14

It appears FileSystemValidator agrees with me, but HomeDirValidator has a problem. I tried this on both Ubuntu 6.04 and Mac OS X 10.5.2. Does this indicate that Tomcat 6 is not supported? Or is it indicative that neither OS on which I've tried to install the agent is officially supported?
Thanks!
Jeff

Hi Denis:
Before being redirected to another short term task, I did indeed get the Tomcat 6 agent to work. I probably won't be able to look at OpenSSO again seriously for another couple of months. :(
I have the OpenSSO server running on Tomcat 6.0.14 on Ubuntu 6.x Linux running in a virtual machine on my Mac. I was not able to get the server to run directly on the Mac, and I cannot remember the reason at this time.
But, as far as the agent goes, I run it again using Tomcat 6.0.14 on my Mac (Mac OS X 10.5.2), using the 1.5 JRE. I do have the agentapp war deployed as well as the agentsample web application to play with. In my catalina.out file:

I checked out the source code for the Tomcat v6 agent (2.2) on May 27, so I don't know how that compares to yours or what's been checked into CVS since my build. I also don't know what the OpenSSO NamingService is.
I assume you used fully qualified domain names to specify the web application to be protected by agent as well as the OpenSSO server itself. The following is the output of the conversation when I run the agent installer script on my system. It has been redacted a bit (domain name and encryption key) to protect my client, but otherwise this is what I supplied to the installer:

ZLM Agent IR2 agent installation fails

Hi all
I have installed ZLM 7.3 IR2 Server in SLES 10 SP2. The ZLM Server setup is not able to complete on sles11 server, the system hangs. Also when trying to install the ZLM 7.3 IR2 agent on SLED 11 OS, the installation starts & hangs in the middle.
Some of the error messages are
1)Error no 111 Connection Refused
2) when executed the zlm-config file it displays the "OS is not supported version"
The SuSEfirewall is set to stop & iptables rules were not set.
I have tried the ZLM 7.3 IR2 agent installation in a freshly installed SLED 10 machine, but the machine is not able to contact the server (host name not found). I have not configured DNS service in the server machine. Please provide suggestions in the ZLM 7.3 IR2 agent installation.

baranii,
a few questions for my understanding:
I have installed ZLM 7.3 IR2 Server in SLES 10 SP2.
This is a running ZLM server and you try to register the other devices to this server. Correct ?
The ZLM Server setup is not able to complete on sles11 server, the system hangs.
SLES 11 or SLES 11 SP1 ? For SLES 11 SP1 you would need to use ZLM 7.3 IR3.
Do you want to install another ZLM server on this SLES 11 server or just the agent ?
I have tried the ZLM 7.3 IR2 agent installation in a freshly installed SLED 10 machine, but the machine is not able to contact the server (host name not found). I have not configured DNS service in the server machine.
The agent must be able to resolve the dns name of the zlm server.
You can either configure DNS or you can add an entry to the /etc/hosts file of the managed device. But you must make sure the device can afterwards ping the ZLM server by its name. (ping <ZLM Server Name>).
It is possible to register the zlm server by its ip address and not by it's name, but5 I would recommend to use the dns name.
So if you have fixed the name resolution and retry the agent installation, verify the zlm-install.log file if a installation fails. That log file is available in /var/opt/novell/logs/zenworks. Go from the end back and look for errors or warnings.

Need Agent Installer for Solaris (SPARC)

Hi All,
I have downloaded Grid Control Agent Installer for Solaris from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oem/htdocs/agentsoft.html.
When I tried to extract the zip file, I am getting the following error message.
"Can not open file. It does not appear to be a valid archive. If you downloaded this file, try downloading the file again."
Even I tried using http://sac.us.oracle.com/download/index.html also but getting the same error.
Please send me the location if you have,
Thanks
Sumathi

Most commands are identical. Performance analysis, loading all are similar. Tape interaction, creation of tape devices is going to be pretty much the same.
The differences show up a lot at the hardware level. HBAs aren't usually the same, many drivers (and their quirks) are different between the architectures. If you're debugging connectivity to a tape library, those differences may be critical.
So you can't get as close as you may want, but I'll bet it would still be helpful.

Diagnostics Agent 711 - SAP Host Agent - Installation on a cluster environm

Dear all,
We have the following architecture in our productive environment :
1. Cluster 01 is composed of 2 nodes.
   On Cluster 01, only "Database" and "Central Services" are running
   for 5 productive SAP systems.
2. Cluster 02 is composed of 6 nodes.
   On Cluster 02, only "Central Instance" and "Application Server"
   are running for 5 productive SAP systems
As read in "Diagnostics Agents installation Strategy", rules #4, slide 12 :
===================================================================
- Do not install a Diagnostics Agent on host that only run Database
or SAP Central Services.
- Install a Agent on EACH host running a Central Instance (CI)
and / or a Dialog Instance
===================================================================
For our productive environment, we do have to install Diagnostics Agents 7.11 on cluster 02 where we have CI + AS running.
Questions :
1. How do we monitor "database" and "central services" data on cluster 01 (DB + CS) as far as no "Diagnostics Agents"
   are installed ?
2. Do we have to install the new "SAP HOST AGENT" in our cluster 01 ?
3. As written in "Downloading and Installing Package SAPHOSTAGENT"
   guide, "you only need to install the host agent host taht not have
   an SAP Component". Does it mean that the new "SAP HOST AGENT"
   will have to be installed on our cluster 01 to monitor "DB+CS" data ?
4. What are for SAP a host that not have SAP Component ... ?
    "Database" and "Central Service" running for a SAP system should be consider as SAP Component or not ... ?
5. What is the difference between the new "SAP HOST AGENT" delivered by SAP today 23.11.2009
    and the "Wily Host-Level Introscope Agent"
   delivered by CA ?
Best regards
PC

Yes, it has to be installed.

Audit Vault Agent Installation issue

I start the AV Agent runInstaller, and fill the details like AVAgent name, Username, connect String etc, then click on next , it throws the following error:
"error1: the AV server is expecting an agent with the given name to be installed on another machine"
I am able to ping from Windows to HP machine and Vice versa (By IP Address and Hostname).
Can anyone tell me where i am going wrong and how to solve it.

How to deployment for AV agent installation on RAC enviroment?

before the AV agent installation on RAC , the agentname and agentuser should be added to av server first. only one agentname/agentuser for the two nodes, or one agentname/agentuser for each node ? also ,the agentusr and the avsrcusr account only one account for two node ?
1. how to tell the agentname and agentuser account before agent installation ? more details are better.
2.with the 9i RAC DB at AIX, need install CRS first?
3. I setup an Linux cluster enviroment ,and a windows cluseter envirement(no CRS installed). but when install the agent , if the agentname set to hostname of the virtual IP ,the error is : ERR0R1: The av server is expecting the agent with given name to be installed in another machine. if input the agentname (which agenthost is node1) , it contiued,but no "node select GUI" comes up (according to the the GUI of Morgan's Library at: http://www.psoug.org/reference/audit_vault.html
),it executes a single agent installation on node1.
I don't know it's wrong configuration of my linux or windows cluster enviroment , or there are some import steps missed ?
it's urgent ,thanks!!
--the node's hostname and IP :
#public
192.168.0.11 node1
192.168.0.12 node2
#private
192.168.8.11 node1-private
192.168.8.12 node2-private
#vip
192.168.0.99 node
agentname: agentwin with agenthost node
agentname : agentwin01 with agentost node1

It is not urgent ... no one is drowning, your house is not on fire, so please don't abuse this forum. Thank you.
Audit Vault is auditing one database ... multiple instances. First create the RAC cluster the way you normally would. Then go to any single cluster node and install the agent. The agent installation will recognize that it is a cluster and ask you whether you want to install on one or all nodes and let you choose which ones.
There is no need to perform separate installations on each node.

11.1.0.1.0 agent installation failure

I have successfully installed 11g grid control on Linux RHEL 5 x86_64
While installing the agent using oms push on to other Linux RHEL 5 x86_64 machine in installation phase its getting failed. I am not able to figure it out how to resolve the issue.
The errors in log specified are like these
install.err Logfile content

********************************

Hi ,
could you please check if the directories
/opt/oracle/product/11gagent//agent11g or /opt/oracle/product/11gagent/
do exist at all?
Have you installed an agent on the node before?
Please check the logfile "OC4J~OC4J_EM~default_island~1" of the OMS
for messages like
'agentpush_Install_NotDefaultShiphome' failed orThe action 'agentpush_Install_CollectLog' failed.
as well (could be found under $OMS_HOME/opmn/logs). If you have found those errors please let me know...
