Deploy the Cartridge for FxM agent package

 
* 
NOTE: Before deploying the Cartridge for FxM agent package, you must first upgrade the Agent Manager to version 5.5.5.4.2 or later on the agent host. For this Agent Manager upgrade, it is recommended that you do not use the embedded Agent Manager instance. For information on upgrading the Agent Manager, see Upgrade the Foglight Agent Manager.
1
Navigate to the Agent Status dashboard (Dashboards > Administration > Agents > Agent Status), and click Deploy Agent Package.
2
Select the monitored host where you want to deploy the agent package.
3
Select the FxM-Fglam-Agent.gar package that you want to deploy on the monitored host.
4
Click Deploy.

Create, configure, and activate the FxM agent

To create, configure, and activate the FxM Agent when upgrading from a version later than 5.5.2 of the Cartridge for FxM:
•
Perform steps 10 and 11 of the following procedure only.
To create, configure, and activate the FxM Agent when upgrading from version 5.5.2 or earlier of the Cartridge for FxM:
1
Navigate to Foglight > Dashboards > End User > FxM > FxM System Health and write down the existing FxM system name (from the earlier version).
 
* 
IMPORTANT: Use the existing FxM system name for the new version 5.6.2 FxM Agent. If you do not use the existing FxM system name for version 5.6.2, data may be lost during the upgrade process.
2
From the Agent Status page, click Create Agent to create the FxM Agent.
 
* 
TIP: To create agent instances on multiple hosts, navigate to the Agent Hosts dashboard by clicking Agent Hosts in the Create Agent dialog box.
3
From the Host list, select the host on which you want to create the agent instance.
After you have selected a host, the Agent Type box populates with all agents that deployed on that host. (This means that you can create agent instances of the FxM Agent whose package has been deployed to the selected host).
4
In the Agent Type box, select FxM.
The list of available agent types reflects the cartridges that have been installed and enabled on the Foglight Management Server and whose packages are deployed to the monitored host.
5
In the Instance Name box, type the system name recorded in step 1. This will be the display name for the agent (for example, FxMAppliance).
6
Click Create.
The new agent appears in the Agent Status dashboard. A green check mark appears indicating the success of the operation.
7
Click OK.
8
From the Agent Status page, select the agent and click Edit Properties to configure the Agent Properties.
9
Click Modify properties for this agent only.
Configure the IP address and the database password.
10
Click Activate to activate the FxM agent that you just created.
11
Click Start Data Collection.

Upgrade Foglight for FTR

1
Install the EU-FTR-5_6_13.car file on the Management Server.
2
On each FTR host machine, ensure the Agent Manager version is the latest supported on your Management Server.
3
If you have not already done so, on each FTR host machine, uninstall the previous versions of Foglight Transaction Recorder and Transaction Player using Windows® Add or Remove Programs.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: This part of the procedure is only necessary if you are upgrading from a version 5.2.1 or earlier Foglight for FTR.
4
On each FTR host machine, using the browser interface, go to Dashboards > Administration > Cartridges > Components for Download and install the new version of Foglight Transaction Recorder and Transaction Player.

5
Using the browser interface, go to Dashboards > Administration > Agents > Agent Status and click Deploy Agent Package to deploy the new agent package to each FTR host machine.

NOTE: Due to a known issue, the Deploy Agent Package progress dialog box may not inform you when the deployment has completed. If this persists for more than five minutes, close the dialog box and proceed to the next step.
