Foglight for DB2 (Cartridge) 5.9.2.1 - Getting Started Guide

Installation Procedures

Foglight for DB2 LUW runs on the Foglight Management Server, which is its operation framework. Therefore, Foglight Management Server must be installed before installing the cartridge. The installation of Foglight for DB2 LUW can be carried out using either of the following scenarios:

•
Installing both Foglight for DB2 LUW and Foglight Management Server. For more information, see Installing Foglight for DB2 LUW using the executable installer.
•
Installing Foglight for DB2 LUW as a cartridge from within an existing Foglight Management Server. For more information, see Installing the Foglight for DB2 LUW cartridge on a Management Server.

Installing Foglight for DB2 LUW using the executable installer

Installing Foglight for DB2 LUW using the executable installer

A single executable file allows installing Foglight Management Server together with Foglight for DB2 LUW.

To run the combined installation file:
1
Copy the installation file appropriate to the operating system and the bit level (32-bit or 64-bit) to a temporary directory on the requested host.
 
* 
NOTE: The combined installation file is named using the following convention: Foglight-<version_number>-DB2-install_<operating system>-<instruction set><bit level><.exe/.bin>. For example: Foglight-5_6_4-DB2-install_windows-x86_64.exe or Foglight-5_6_4-DB2-install_solaris-x86_64.bin.
2
If planning to use an external database for the Foglight Management Server Installation, ensure that this database is running.
3
Follow the on-screen installation instructions.

Installing the Foglight for DB2 LUW cartridge on a Management Server

Installing the Foglight for DB2 LUW cartridge on a Management Server

Ensure that the pre-existing Foglight license that is being used allows cartridge installation. If a license that does not allow cartridge installation is used, the installation wizard cannot proceed beyond the Foglight Management Server License screen, which requires specifying the type of license to be installed.

To install Foglight for DB2 LUW as a cartridge:
1
Copy the cartridge’s car file (DB_DB2-VersionNumber.car; for example, DB_DB2-5_6_4.car), which is included in the installation media, to your local computer.
2
Log in to the Foglight browser interface.
3
In the browser interface, on the navigation panel, click Dashboards > Administration > Cartridges > Cartridge Inventory.
4
On the Cartridge Inventory dashboard, click Browse to find the car file on your local computer.
5
Click Install Cartridge.

Configuring Foglight for DB2 LUW

The next step is to configure agents to monitor your DB2 instances.

 
* 
NOTE: This section assumes that you have a Foglight Agent Manager installed with capacity to host Foglight for DB2 LUW monitoring agents. Agent Managers host agents, manage agent lifecycle (such as start, stop, and restart), manage the agent connection to the Management Server, and provide centralized services to agents. To determine the capacity of an Agent Manager to host agents, see the Foglight for DB2 LUW Hardware Sizing Guide.
