Install the Web Agent Documentation on UNIX Systems

You install the Web Agent documentation independently from the Web Agent—it is not installed by default. We recommend that you install the documentation before installing the Web Agent so you can specify the install location.

Note: If you plan to install the Web Agent documentation on the same system as existing Policy Server documentation, the installation puts the Agent manuals in the same location as the Policy Server documents, for example, policy_server_home/ca_documents. You will not be prompted to specify a location.

To install the documentation

1. Download the documentation installation programs from Technical Support, and then navigate to the directory for your operating system.
2. Copy the appropriate installation file for your operating system to a local directory then navigate to that directory.

   Note: The binary files use the following naming conventions:

   • ca-wa-version-operating_system.bin (for most versions)
   • ca-wa-version-operating_system-processor-architecture.bin (for versions requiring a specific processor or architecture type)
   • nete-wa-doc-version-linux.bin (linux 2.1)
3. Open a console window, and check the permissions on the binary file. You may need to add execute to the installation file by running the chmod command, for example:

   chmod +x ca-wa-version-operating_system.bin

4. From a console window, run the documentation installation using one of the following commands:

   GUI mode:

   ./ca-wa-doc-version-operating_system.bin

   Console mode:

   ./ca-wa-doc-version-operating_system.bin -i console

   The documentation installation starts.

5. Read the License Agreement, pressing Enter to page through the entire document. If you agree with the terms, enter Y to continue the installation.
6. Review the Important Instructions, then click Next.
7. Specify the installation directory.

   The installation program installs the r12.0 SP3 Web Agent documentation in the directory you specified.
