Installing Rational Agent Controller on Linux

If you already have Rational Agent Controller (RAC) installed, and want to check what version it is, complete the following steps:
  1. Log on as root.
  2. Invoke the following command:
    rpm -q ibmrac

On all Linux systems on which you plan to use Rational Agent Controller, check that the X Window System libraries are installed; on 64-bit platforms, the 31-bit or 32-bit X Window System libraries are required in addition to the 64-bit libraries. On Red Hat Enterprise Advanced Server V4.0, you must also install the deprecated X Window System libraries.

To install RAC Version 6.0.1 from the supplemental CD or DVD supplied with WebSphere Event Broker, follow the instructions in the install.html file that is supplied in the root directory of the RAC component on the CD or DVD. In addition to those instructions, consider the following restrictions:

After installation, add the lib directory (for example, /usr/lpp/IBM/AgentController/lib) to the start of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable before you start the broker, to enable it to connect to RAC.
