24.2 Manually Migrating the Monitor Application to Linux

  1. On the Linux server, become root in a terminal window.

  2. Make sure that the Linux server already has Apache and Tomcat configured and running successfully and that you know the full path to the Apache and Tomcat root directories.

  3. If your Linux environment includes the X Window System, run the GUI GroupWise Installation program to install and configure the Linux Monitor Application, as described in Installing and Configuring the Monitor Application.

    or

    If the X Window System is not available, run the text-based GroupWise Installation program instead, as described in Installing the GroupWise Agents Using the Text-Based Installation Program.

  4. Stop and then start Apache and Tomcat, as described in Restarting the Web Server.

  5. Verify that the new Monitor Application is communicating successfully with the existing Monitor Agent by viewing the Monitor URL for the platform of your Web server:

    NetWare or Windows Web Server:

    		 
    http://web_server_network_address/gw

    Linux Web Server:

    		 
    http://web_server_network_address/gwmon

  6. If desired, uninstall the Monitor Application from the Web server to reclaim disk space on the NetWare or Windows Web server. See Uninstalling the NetWare GroupWise Agents or Uninstalling the Windows GroupWise Agents.
