Installing the TrueSight Presentation Server Component
If you use Monitoring Studio X in TrueSight Presentation Server (TSPS) with its TSPS Component, you need to install EMC NetWorker KM's TSPS Component to access EMC NetWorker KM's Web UI in TSPS.
Requirements
Versions of TrueSight Presentation Server and TrueSight Infrastructure Management must be v11.0 or higher.
At least one TrueSight Infrastructure Management component must be properly configured and running in TrueSight Presentation Server.
Monitoring Studio X KM version 10.1 or higher must be deployed on all Agents where you plan on using EMC NetWorker KM's Web UI.
Monitoring Studio X TSPS Component must be installed and configured in your TrueSight environment.
Installation
The installation of the EMC NetWorker KM TSPS Component is performed on TrueSight Presentation Server (TSPS). You need to copy the installation file in a temporary location on the TSPS server itself (/tmp as in the example below):
emc-networker-4.0.03-tsps.zip
Open a shell as the tsps user on the TSPS server, and execute the below command in the /opt/bmc/TrueSightPServer/truesightpserver/bin directory:
$ ./tssh componenttype add /tmp/emc-networker-4.0.03-tsps.zip
If you are updating the EMC NetWorker KM Component (i.e. it has already been installed on this TSPS server), you need to use the below command:
$ ./tssh componenttype update /tmp/emc-networker-4.0.03-tsps.zip
Normally, TSPS will be restarted:
