Device Manager agent post-installation tasks
After the Device Manager agent installation completes, additional tasks may be required, depending
on the previous version of the agent that was installed.
These additional tasks are described in the following sections:
• Modifying Device Manager agent properties, page 56
• Resetting the service execution user (Windows), page 56
• Registering firewall exceptions (Windows), page 57
Modifying Device Manager agent properties
After installing the Device Manager agent, you may have to modify some of its properties.
To modify Device Manager agent properties:
1. Stop the agent service.
2. Modify the properties for the appropriate environment.
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)
Set the following properties in the agent server.properties file.
• server.http.socket.agentAddress: Set the property to the IP address used to connect the
Device Manager agent to the Device Manager server.
• server.http.socket.bindAddress: If the agent host has multiple NICs, specify the IP address
of one or more NIC, as needed, to receive requests.
Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM)
Specify the installed VxVM version in the veritas.volume.manager.version property of the
programproductinfo.properties file. Use the format x.x to specify a version.
UNIX environments, when the Device Manager agent is updated from version 05-00 to 5.9
If host programs do not require a different Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version from 1.4, then JRE
1.4 (included in versions 05-00 through 5.9) is used.
After the update, if a program is installed with a valid JRE, specify that program installation path in
the server.agent.JRE.location property of the server.properties file.
Resetting the service execution user (Windows)
After an update or recovery installation in Windows, the agent service execution user setting reverts
to the default (LocalSystem). If the agent execution user is not LocalSystem, change this setting
after the installation.
