Cartographer Agent Installation
Overview
There is a single Cartographer agent distribution that encompasses all supported platforms. That is, the single distribution contains binaries, libraries, and configuration files needed to run on all supported platforms.
Home Directory Location
- UNIX /opt/cartographer
- Win32/64 c:\program files\cartographer
Future Work
Self installation and distribution development are in the works. What does that mean? Essentially, Cartographer agents will deploy themselves throughout an enterprise as they discover dependencies. Typically, a deployment is started by first installing Cartographer agents on a handful of Windows and UNIX machines and letting Cartographer agents take care of the rest.
Supported Platforms and Platform Specific Notes
Cartographer agents run on the following platforms:
- Solaris 9+ Sparc/64-bit
- Solaris 9+ on x86
- Linux systems containing 2.4+ kernels on x86
- Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista
Notes:
- Support for 64-bit Windows (win64) is undergoing testing.
- Testing on 64-bit Linux kernels is underway.
- A port to MacOS is being contemplated but has not yet been finalized.
- Ports to the iPhone/iPod nor Android have been planned at this time.
- On Solaris, Cartographer agents are started with init scripts rather than the service management facility
- The agent distribution contains its own builds of OpenSSL that conform to our platform-specific naming scheme. Doing so makes installation and deployment, as well as upgrading, simpler and more consistent.
- On UNIX, we use the native XML libraries; on Windows, we distribute a Windows version of libxml2.
