Post installation tasks

When you have finished installing the operating system and configuring RAID, you can perform post installation tasks. This section describes the methods for installing the IBM Systems Director Agent and applying UpdateXpress System Pack (UXSP) updates.

The Linux Scripting Toolkit provides sample jobs for installing the IBM Systems Director Agent and applying UpdateXpress System Pack updates to a target system on which RAID has been configured and a supported operating system installed. Note that to complete these jobs, the Altiris Agent must be installed on the target system. The Altiris Agent is installed automatically by the operating system installation tasks provided by the Linux Scripting Toolkit. If the operating system on the target system was not installed using these jobs, you might have to install the Altiris Agent manually. See Operating system installation for more information about using the modular deployment tools to install operating systems.

The following sections describe the process for using the modular deployment tools to install the IBMDirector Agent and apply UXSP updates to a target system.
