UAM is a console used to manage all components across your enterprise. You can use UAM to install the Agent on several computers at the same time.
After you have installed UAM, you can set up users and assign access to them. For more information about managing UAM users, see Section 6.0, Managing Users Using UAM. The following sections guide you through installing UAM:
Complete the following steps to install the UAM server, the UAM console, or both on a Windows computer.
To install UAM on a Windows computer:
Log on to the Windows computer using a local administrator account.
Download and run UAMInstaller.MSI from the package in the root folder of the installation kit and continue with the installation as prompted.
NOTE:Do not restrict communication security settings to Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) encrypted algorithms unless you are certain that your environment requires that restriction. If you enable FIPS 140-2 mode, UAM cannot communicate with Agents that are running in non-FIPS mode. For more information about FIPS and the other security level options, see Section 7.0, Converting Agent from Non-FIPS to FIPS mode.
Complete the automatic installer wizard.
Specify and confirm a password for the UAM server. The administrator user account must use this password.
NOTE:To change the administrative password for the UAM server, start the server using the old password and then reset it in Manage Server window by clicking Reset Admin Password.
Continue with the installation as prompted until the installation is complete.
Complete the following steps to install the UAM server, the UAM console, or both on a Linux computer.
To install the UAM on a Linux computer:
Download the package in the root folder and specify the following command to extract the install files from the tar file.
tar -zxvf <install_filename>
Replace <install_filename> with the actual name of the install file.
Change to the directory where you extracted the installer:
cd <directory_name>
Extract the appropriate .tar.gz file for your platform.
(Conditional) Specify the following command to enable FIPS:
./enablefips.sh on
NOTE:Do not restrict communication security settings to Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) encrypted algorithms unless you are certain that your environment requires that restriction. If you enable FIPS 140-2 mode, UAM cannot communicate with Agents that are running in non-FIPS mode. For more information about FIPS and the other security level options, see Section 7.0, Converting Agent from Non-FIPS to FIPS mode.
Specify the following command to install the UAM in the new UAM folder:
./installserver.sh install
Specify and confirm a password for the UAM server. The administrator user account can use this password.
Run the following script to create the UAM database and set the administrator password before you run the run.sh script:
./runserver.sh
Run the following script to start the UAM console:
./run.sh
Continue with the installation as prompted until the installation is complete.
