Installing HPOM Agents on the Managed Nodes
Secure Shell Installation Method
Secure Shell Installation Method
This section describes how to use Secure Shell (SSH) software for
installing HPOM agent software on managed nodes.
The SSH installation method provides enhanced security for
installations that are performed over insecure lines (for example, over
the Internet).
NOTE
HPOM does not provide the SSH software. If you want to use SSH for the
HPOM agent installation, you must first install and configure the SSH
software on the management server and the managed node.
There are two SSH protocol versions available: SSHv1 and SSHv2. The
HPOM agent installation uses whichever version of the SSH protocol
that is available on the management server and the managed node.
