Install an Agent on an existing unmanaged non-global zone

To bring a zone under agent management by SA, you must first install an SA Server Agent. Before installing an Agent, verify that the following requirements are met:

  • The non-global zone is running.
  • All services on the non-global zone are up and running. If they are not, the zone may not have the necessary sysconfig information that is provided when the non-global zone is booted for the first time. See the Sun Solaris 10/Solaris 11 documentation on zone configuration for more information.

You can install an SA Agent on an unmanaged Oracle Solaris Zone in one of the following ways:

SA certificate mode Using the general SA Agent installation instructions Using the SA zone management interface
self-signed
