Understanding Tools Installation
The VCM tools include:
n
Foundation Checker
n
Job Manager
n
Import/Export and Configuration Content Wizard (CCW)
n
Web Services Toolkit
All of the tools are automatically installed. Installation procedures are provided in "Using Installation
Manager" on page 12.
VCM tools may be installed separately on a non-Collector machine as appropriate. To install Tools Only,
follow the installation procedures in "Installing and Getting Started with VCM Tools" on page 241
Checking Prerequisites for Installation
This section lists the prerequisites that you should complete prior to using Installation Manager.
Hardware and Software Requirements
Your hardware and software configuration must meet the requirements described in the VCM Hardware
and Software Requirements Guide before you can proceed with your installation.
IMPORTANT You can ensure a smooth and efficient installation by validating that your machines meet all
the requirements by performing a Tools Only installation of Foundation Checker (see "Installing and
Getting Started with VCM Tools" on page 241) and running it once it is installed. If Foundation Checker
returns no errors, then you are ready to proceed. If your machine(s) do not meet these requirements, the
installation cannot proceed.
If you are installing on HP-UX 11.11, Patch PHSS_30966 is required for the HP-UX Agent. If you need
assistance, contact VMware Customer Support.
Administration Rights
The User Account of the person performing your installation or upgrade must be all of the following:
n
A system administrator on the machine(s) on which the installation or upgrade is being performed, and
n
A system administrator on the database instance that will be used, and
n
A member of a domain.
The installing User Account should not be the account used to run the SQL Server Services; nor, after
installation, should you create a VCM user with the SQL Server Services account credentials.
Default Network Authority Account
The default network authority account must be specified during the installation process. This account,
which often is the system administrator’s (for example, a Domain Admin in the Local Admin Group), must
be set up in the Local Administrators group on each machine prior to installation. This should have already
been completed following the checklist in the VCM Hardware and Software Requirements Guide.
