To install the HP-UX agent

This section explains how to install the HP-UX agent. The 8.0 HP-UX agent includes performance enhancements and extends support to HP-UX 11.

1        Download the appropriate agent installer to the HP-UX machine that you want to add to the Unitrends system. (Go to the Latest agent releases page to download the installer.)

2        Log in to the HP-UX client as root user.

3        Change to the working directory where you have saved the agent installer, and run the command ls -l to view the installer file and determine whether you have execute permission. If necessary, add execute permission using the command:

chmod +x <file_name>

4        Begin the installation be executing the file:

./<file_name>

5        Press Enter to accept the default directory (/usr/bp).

6        Enter the hostname of the system.

7        If using a low, medium or high security setting on the system, enter y when asked if the client and the server (backup system) are separated by a firewall. This forces data communication between the system and the client to use port 1745.

8        When prompted, press Enter. Your agent installation is complete. Register the client to your Unitrends backup system to begin protecting it.
