Installing into a PATROL 3.3. or 3.4. Unix Environment

If you are installing PATROL KM for Event Management into a Unix environment that has PATROL 3.3. x or PATROL 3.4. x installed, you must launch the installation utility from the command line using the -releaseversion option as described in Upgrading.

If you have a PATROL Agent installed on the computer where you are installing PATROL KM for Event Management-Preload component, the installation script designates PATROL KM for Event Management as a preloaded KM in the agent configuration file. When a KM is designated as a preloaded KM on a PATROL Agent, it automatically loads and begins to monitor resources and applications whenever the agent is started.

If you have a PATROL Console installed on the computer where you are installing the PATROL KM for Event Management-Preload component, the installation script loads the PATROL KM for Event Management into the console.

For more information about preloading, see the PATROL Agent Reference Manual.
