10 vFoglight Cartridge For Guest Processes
Installation and Configuration Guide
For procedures to install the vFoglight Agent Manager, refer to the vFoglight Getting
Started Guide.
Configuring Root Certificates for FglAM
If any process information collection is to be done with a WinRM server through
encrypted HTTPS communication, a new Certificate Authority must be added to the
JRE used by the vFoglight Agent Manager. The JRE includes a command line tool
called 'keytool' which can be used to add the new Certificate Authority.
Click here for documentation on how to use this tool for Windows.
Click here for documentation on how to use this tool with Solaris.
An example command line to import a new root certificate would be:
JAVA_HOME/jre/bin/keytool -import -file new_cacert.pks -alias 'somename' -keystore
'jks'
The initial password of the 'cacerts' keystore file is 'changeit'. System administrators
should change this password and the default access permissions of this file when
installing the SDK. The file is located at:
"FGLAM_HOME/jre/JRE_VERSION/jre/lib/security/cacerts"
Note The certificate file to be imported should be the public certificate for the Certificate Authority
that signed the server's SSL certificate, not the SSL certificate itself.
Installing the Cartridge for Guest Process Investigation
Cartridge
Installation is the first step in adding a cartridge to the vFoglight Management Server. A
cartridge file has the extension .car. Installing the .car file causes the Management
Server to be aware of all cartridges in the .car file.
A cartridge must also be enabled before it is added to the vFoglight Management Server.
You can cause a cartridge to be enabled upon installation, or you can enable it after
installation. See the vFoglight Administration and Configuration Guide for instructions
on enabling and disabling cartridges after installation.
