Remedy Single Sign-On (Remedy SSO) acts as the authentication tool to manage tenants (realms), user groups, and users for TrueSight Presentation Server and other TrueSight components.
| Description | Procedure |
|---|---|
Remedy SSO can be installed using one of the following installers:
Based on the decision you made in the Planning step, choose the applicable installer. You can install Remedy Single Sign-On in standalone or high-availability mode. Both these options are available in wizard-based and silent modes. Installation of Remedy SSO is done in two phases:
TrueSight installer for Remedy SSO 11.3.02 TrueSight installer for Remedy SSO (consolidated installer) version is not available for 11.3.02 or 11.3.03. It is available for versions 11.0.00 and 11.3.01 only. However, you can directly upgrade Remedy SSO to a later version. | Phase A – Install using one of these optionsUsing the TrueSight Installer

The TrueSight Presentation Server provides the framework and console for all TrueSight Operations Management implementations. The TrueSight Presentation Server hosts the web-based TrueSight console, and consumes data from various TrueSight components to provide a consolidated set of views for monitoring infrastructure, real and synthetic applications, and capacity planning. It also enables you to perform functions such as role-based access control and data management.
| Description | Procedure |
|---|---|
As the Presentation Server forms the hub of the operations management environment, you must install it before installing the other licensed components. You can install the Presentation Server in a standalone or high-availability mode. Both these options are available in wizard-based and silent modes. | Phase A – Install Presentation Server using one of these optionsStandalone mode

Based on your environment, you can install App Visibility agents for Java or .NET to capture information about application transactions from an application server JVM or from Internet Information Services (IIS) worker processes respectively. The Synthetic Transaction Execution Adapter (TEA) agent monitors the performance and reliability of applications through synthetic (also called robotic ) transactions. If you wish to do synthetic monitoring, install a TEA agent in wizard-based or silent mode. Installation of Application Visibility Manager is done in two phases:
| Phase A – Install App Visibility Server using one of these optionsStandalone mode
High-availability mode
(Optional) Disaster recovery mode Phase B – Install the licensed agentsTask 1 – Install the App Visibility agent Task 2 – Install the Synthetic TEA Agent |

As we not releasing TrueSight RSSO installer, should we still recommend using TrueSight RSSO for Install?
Vinay...this topic is for 11.3.01 and the TrueSight RSSO installer is available.
I wanted to install the BMC Impact Integration Web Service and was hoping to find a reference on how to do so here on this page. It is part of TSIM, but there is no link on this page on how to install this component.
