11 Introducing Symantec ESM Agent for IBM AS/400 Planning for installation 11 Registering the Symantec ESM agent with a Manager Registering a Symantec ESM agent with a manager establishes secured communications between the agent and the manager. Each agent must register to at least one manager. Do not use more than one agent name to register a Symantec ESM agent to a manager, else ESM reports an error message when you run a policy on the agent. Do not register the Symantec ESM agent to a manager version earlier than Symantec ESM 6.0. This causes database errors on the manager. Instead, you must upgrade the managers to the latest Symantec ESM version before registering the agent. The manager must be running to register the agent. If the manager is not running, you can restart the manager and use the Register agent option in the Symantec ESM menu to register the agent. Symantec ESM agents that were registered to an ESM Manager before the upgrade of the Manager continue to function with the upgraded managers. To register the Symantec ESM agent to a manager 1 Log on to the AS/400 server through ESM as the profile that is created by the Agent Installation procedure. The default password is ESM001. You must change the default password after the first logon. 2 If you are registering the agent again, then select option 40 to start the ESM subsystem. 3 On the ESM Main menu, select option 6, Register with Manager. 4 Enter the TCP/IP port number.
