## Installation
|
|
|
|
|
|
2021-09-10 19:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
We require Java 8, which should already be installed on AIX, or is available to install.
|
2021-06-10 06:55:03 +00:00
|
|
|
The RPM packages are *"noarch"* Java bytecode, so we can use the **--ignoreos** option to install:
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
```shell
|
|
|
|
|
rpm -i --ignoreos sysmon-client.rpm sysmon-plugins.rpm
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Run automatically at boot

Change the *sysmon-server* URL for your environment.

|
|
