Installing the Unix Linux Using SSL

This procedure describes how to install the Agent using SSL after you have installed and verified the installation of a self-signed or trusted internal CA certificate.

Install the Agent Using SSL

  • Install the Agent on the Application Server using the server's HTTPS URL, and using Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) as the hostname:

    ./observeit-agent-RHEL6-7.6.2.3.run -- -i -s "https://SSL-W08-64SQ8-1/observeitapplicationserver"

    (Default SSL port is 443.)

    -Or-

    ./observeit-agent-RHEL6-7.6.2.3.run -- -i -s "https://SSL-W08-64SQ8-1:PORT/observeitapplicationserver"

    (PORT is the non-default SSL port number.)

Verify the Agent’s Health Status

  • Run the command:

    /opt/observeit/agent/bin/oitcheck

 

The results should look like this (for a CentOS Linux-based platform):

Detected platform: Linux - "CentOS release 6.9 (Final)"

 

Check for oit package: PASS

oit-7.6.2.3-1.x86_64

 

Check for obitd service: Not PASS

STATUS: Insufficient privileges: root access required

 

Check that obitd daemon running: PASS

 

Check for /opt/observeit/agent/run directory: PASS

 

Check for /opt/observeit/agent/conf/obit.conf: PASS

HostURL: https://SSL-W08-64SQ8-1/observeitapplicationserver

WebConsoleURL: http://10.3.0.72:4884/ObserveIT

 

Checking for registration by remote app server: PASS

 

Checking for Obit basic interception linkage: PASS

 

Checking SELinux status:

STATUS: disabled

If all the checks passed successfully, you may begin using the ITM On-Prem (ObserveIT) Agent.
