Download and install the correct agent package for the
Java version you are using.
Procedure
Some IBM® Java™ Runtime Environments (JREs)
already have a Health Center agent installed. However, you should
still install the agent using this procedure to ensure that the latest
updates are included.
- Download the agent package by clicking the link corresponding
to the Java version you are
running:
Note: This might not be the same as the operating system you
are running. For example, you might be running a 32-bit Java on a Windows® 64-bit
system; in this case you should download the Windows 32-bit agent package.
- Install the agent.
- Installing on Microsoft® Windows, AIX and Linux:
- You must download and extract the agent package into a specific
directory of the JRE that you are using to start your application.
This directory is the parent directory of the jre directory.
For example, on Microsoft Windows, if your JRE is in the C:\Program
Files\IBM\Java60\jre directory, extract the contents of
the Windows x86 32-bit agent
package into C:\Program Files\IBM\Java60
- When extracted, you see a healthcenter.jar file in
the jre\lib\ext directory. Using the example
in step a., your healthcenter.jar is in C:\Program
Files\IBM\Java60\jre\lib\ext.
- Installing on z/OS:
- Unpack the z/OS agent package
(a pax file) into the SDK directory using the command pax
-ppx -rf. For example:
W0 /u/user/J5.0: pax -ppx -rf ../mz31.pax
The agent files are unpacked into the Java SDK directory. For example, for Java 5.0, this directory is similar
to /u/user/J5.0.
