Agent installation and configuration
The agent can be installed to operating systems with Java SE v.6, v.7 and v.8 support: Linux, Windows, MacOS X. It is also possible to install an agent to an automation controller Wiren Board 6 based on Linux.
| The latest agent version can be downloaded from our website. |
Agent installation to the system server provides for the possibility of simplified autoinstallation procedure.
|
In Linux the saymon user is automatically created during the installation process. The agent will work on behalf of this user. If there is already a user in the system with such login, the agent will work on their behalf. |
Installation paths by default:
-
Windows 32bit:
C:\Program Files\SAYMON Agent -
Windows 64bit:

In case agent installation is not possible or not acceptable, agentless monitoring can be set up.

The details about natures of monitoring are described in the article Active and passive monitoring - agentful vs. agentless. |
