To Install the SiteMinder Agent using a console on UNIX

1. Exit all applications that are running.
2. Open a shell and navigate to where the install program is located
3. If necessary, add executable permissions to the install file by running the following command:

   chmod +x installation_media
   

   installation_media

   Specifies the SiteMinder Agent installer executable

4. Enter the following command:

   sh ./installation_media -i console
   

   The SiteMinder Agent for JBoss installation wizard starts.

5. Use gathered system and component information to install the SiteMinder Agent. Consider the following as you make your selections:
   • When prompted to select the Java version, the installer lists all Java executables present on the system. Select a supported 32-bit Java Runtime Environment (refer to the Platform Support Matrix on the Technical Support site).
   • Do not use space characters in the SOA Agent install path. For example, "/CA/SOA SM" will result in install failure.
6. Review the information displayed on the Pre-Installation Summary page, then proceed.

   Note: If the installer detects newer versions of certain system libraries installed on your system, it asks if you want to overwrite these newer files with older files. Select No To All if you see this message.

   The SiteMinder Agent files are copied to the specified location. Afterward, the CA SiteMinder Agent for JBoss Configuration page is displayed.

7. Select whether to restart the system now or later on your own.
8. Hit Enter.

Note: After installation, you can review the installation log file in SMAGENT_HOME/install_config_info. The file name is: CA_SiteMinder®_Agent_for_JBoss_InstallLog.log.
