LOCUS (tm) Agent Version 1.2
(c) 2003 Tikal Technology, Inc.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Locus Agent is designed to run on any Linux, Solaris, or AIX host supporting
java. 

The agent can be installed in any directory. The agent startup script is
written to look for the agent in /opt/locus/agent, ${HOME}/opt/locus/agent, or
/usr/local/locus/agent. You can modify this script quite easiy to place the
agent directory anywhere you desire.

The startup script also looks for java in various installation directories. It
can simply default to ${JAVA_HOME}. If you wish to specify a particular java 
installation, modify the script accordingly.

There is a standard configuration file which requires minor changes to allow the
agent to find the Locus Server. The agent can be started after making these 
changes.

The agent will receive its configuration from the Locus Server.

To make this installation as painless as possible, please install the the Locus
Server Application first, install the Locus Web Application second and verify
the connection to the Locus Server, and finally install the Locus Agent. You will
find the information provided through the Web Application useful for verifying
the Locus Agent connection.

Please read the Locus Agent INSTALL file and the Locus Server INSTALL file for 
additional directions.
