Install CA Enterprise Log Manager

Use this procedure to install a CA Enterprise Log Manager server.

To install the CA Enterprise Log Manager software

1. Boot the server with the OS installation DVD.

   The operating system installation starts automatically.

2. Respond to the prompts using the information you gathered in the CA Enterprise Log Manager server worksheet.

   Declining the license agreement stops the installation and shuts down the server.

3. Respond to the reboot prompt by first removing the media and then clicking Reboot.
4. Insert the CA Enterprise Log Manager Application disk when prompted and press Enter.
5. Respond to the prompts using the information you gathered in the work sheet.

   The installation continues. When you see the message, "CA Enterprise Log Manager installation succeeded." the installation is complete.

   Note: When you install a second or subsequent CA Enterprise Log Manager server, you may notice an error message in the installation log saying the application name that the installation attempted to register with the CA EEM server already exists. You can safely ignore this error, as each CA Enterprise Log Manager installation attempts to create the application name as if it was new.

After the installation is complete, you must configure your CA Enterprise Log Manager server before you can receive events. This may include configuring a connector on the default agent to receive syslog events.
