Deploying Agent Technology on Multiple Systems

If you are installing multiple systems, you have two methods for Agent Technology:

• Do a complete installation on each system. This method provides separate CSIs for tracking each system independently.
• Track the software using the existing CSI and simply install copies on the other machines.

If you employ the second method, use the Agent Technology Read-Only zFS which was created, formatted, and mounted by SAMPJCL jobs B6D1ALLU and B6D2MKD. The Read-Only zFS contains all executable programs and can be shared among multiple systems. Thus, only the Read-Write zFS (which is relatively small) is copied to the second and successive systems to run the Agent Technology services. This zFS structure also simplifies product maintenance procedures because nearly all updates are applied to the shared Read-Only zFS only.
