Downloading Nobix Alert nAlert to an AIX, HP-UX, Linux or Solaris computer
- Click the Nobix Alert Download
link.
- Click the download link entitled Nobix Alert Command Line
Alerter for UNIX/Linux.
- When the download dialog appears, click Save.
- When prompted, specify the directory into which you want to save the installation
file.
- When the download completes, transfer the download file to your Unix machine's
/tmp directory (or any other suitable directory) and extract the nAlert installation
files into a clean directory. You can do this by uncompressing the download file
and then using tar to extract the files to a temporary directory, for example /tmp/nalertInstall.
Use the actual filename that you transferred from the Nobix website -- the
example here uses nalertUnix_0100.redist.tar.gz and that may not be the actual
filename that you downloaded.
cd /tmp
gunzip nalertUNIX_0100.redist.tar.gz
mkdir nalertInstall
cd nalertInstall
tar xvf ../nalertUNIX_0100.redist.tar
The installation files are now located in /tmp/nalertInstall
-
Ensure that you are logged in as root or another user that has directory creation
capability in the /opt directory. The installation script is named INSTALL
in uppercase. The destination directory for the software is /opt/nalert. You will
be prompted for a software activation key during the installation.
If you followed the example above, to begin the installation enter the command:
After installation, the nalert program may be found at:
You may then remove the /tmp/nalertInstall directory.
Refer to the Nobix Alert
Documentation for information and help.
Note that Nobix Alert uses ports 31242 and 31343, both TCP and UDP, for communication
between the Nobix Alert server and other systems.
