vmware navisphere agent install

Here is how to install the navisphere agent on esx

Log into ESX server via ILO
VI /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Change permit root login = yes to uncommented
comment out permit root login=no
run service sshd restart
Use winscp to connect to the server via ssh
Copy the navisphere files to /home
Log into the ESX server via ssh
See if the agent is already installed by running rpm -qi naviagent
rpm -ivh naviagent-.rpm
add user system@(IP address of SPA) to the agent.config file in /etc/navisphere/agent.config using vi
add user system@(IP address of SPB) to the agent.config file in /etc/navisphere/agent.config using vi
You can also do the above steps using the navicli by typing: navicli remoteconfig -setconfig -adduser system@SPA IP (Do the same for SPB)
run service naviagent start from the command line
Open up firewall ports by typing the below commands
[root@server home]# esxcfg-firewall -o 6390,tcp,in,naviagent
[root@server home]# esxcfg-firewall -o 6391,tcp,in,naviagent
[root@server home]# esxcfg-firewall -o 6389,tcp,in,naviagent
[root@server home]# esxcfg-firewall -o 6392,tcp,in,naviagent
[root@server home]# esxcfg-firewall -o 443,tcp,out,naviagent
[root@server home]# esxcfg-firewall -o 2163,tcp,out,naviagent
