h3. To Install a Sun xVM Ops Center Server
This procedure describes the steps required to install the Sun xVM Ops Center server component on a system that meets the recommended specifications for this installation. The {{install}} script that installs the Sun xVM Ops Center server also automatically installs a Sun xVM Ops Center proxy on the same system, but it does not enable the proxy. In configuration steps that follow this software installation procedure, you have the option to enable the proxy that this procedure installs.

Before proceeding with the Sun xVM Ops Center server installation, be certain to check that your system's resources meet the requirements described on the [Verifying System Resources|http://wikis.sun.com/display/xVM/Verifying+System+Resources] page.

# Create a temporary directory on your system, then copy the appropriate Sun xVM Ops Center archive for your system from delivery media to the temporary directory that you created. For example:
{code}
# mkdir /var/tmp/xVM
# cp xVM-Ops-Center-sol-sparc-GA-1-0-2.tar.gz /var/tmp/xVM
{code}
The Sun xVM Ops Center installation archive consumes up to 800 MBytes of disk space.
# Change to the directory where the archive is located on your system, then uncompress and un-{{tar}} the archive. (Note that the following command example retains the original compressed archive file. The data extracted from the archive consumes about 1 GByte of additional space.) List the contents of the temporary directory.
{code}
# cd /var/tmp/xVM
# gzcat xVM-Ops-Center-sol-sparc-GA-1-0-2.tar.gz | tar xf -
# ls

# On SPARC systems, change to the {{SunOS_sparc/Product/installer}} directory and run the {{install}} script. On x86 systems, the {{install}} script is located in the {{SunOS_i386/Product/installer}} directory. When prompted, accept the terms and conditions so that you can continue with the installation. The {{install}} script exits if you do not accept the terms and conditions displayed.

The screen clears, then the {{install}} script displays a list of installation tasks that automatically updates as the installation proceeds. For example:

The {{install}} script takes about 25 minutes to install Sun xVM Ops Center server and proxy software. When complete, the {{install}} script indicates that all Sun xVM Ops Center components have been installed, and displays a confirmation message. The {{/var/tmp/installer.log.latest}} file contains the installation log.
# To verify the installation, list the Sun xVM Ops Center services installed by the {{install}} script. Check for services with {{scn}} and {{common}} in their fault management resource identifier (FMRI) names. The list should include the the following services:
{code}
# svcs '*scn*' '*common*'
STATE STIME FMRI

disabled 14:41:32 svc:/application/management/common-agent-container-1:scn-proxy

After installing the Sun xVM Ops Center server and proxy software, you must register the server with the Sun Inventory online environment. The [Configuring Sun xVM Ops Center Server Software |http://wikis.sun.com/display/xVM/Configuring+Sun+xVM+Ops+Center+Server+Software] page describes the required procedure.
