You can install AppManager components in any of these combinations:
All components, except the UNIX agent, at once
For information about installing UNIX agents, see the AppManager for UNIX and Linux Servers Management Guide, available on the AppManager Modules Documentation page.
Individual components one at a time
A few components at a time
If you install AppManager components one at a time, install them in the following order:
Install the QDB and ensure it is running before you install management servers, agents, and Control Center components.
The QDB stores AppManager information such as events, data, and statistics and the other components interact with it.
Install at least one management server.
Because the management server requires an agent on the same computer, the setup program automatically selects the agent components (the agent services and the AppManager for Microsoft Windows module) for installation when you select the management server.
Because the management server enables communication between the QDB and agents, install at least one before you install additional agents.
Install the Task Scheduler service, which also installs the Task Scheduler Configuration Utility. You will use the utility to add QDBs and the Control Center repository to the service. The repositories will not function correctly until you add them to the service.
Install Control Center components.
Control Center allows you to deploy agents and modules to remote computers.
Because you need a Windows agent to enable Control Center to monitor the health of AppManager components, the setup program automatically selects the agent components (the agent services and the AppManager for Microsoft Windows module) for installation when you select Control Center and Deployment services.
Install additional agents to remote computers.
Install other components.
