1.) Go to the server directory on the DCS manager and get the agent-cert.ssl
C:\Program Files (x86)\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\agent-cert.ssl
2.) Copy via scp or sftp the agent-cert.ssl to the Linux server. Put it in the /tmp directory
3.) SSH to the server
4.) Switch user to root
sudo su -
5.) Change to the agent IPS directory
cd /opt/Symantec/sdcssagent/IPS
6.) change to the sisips user
su sisips
7.) Install the agent-cert.ssl
./sisipsconfig.sh -c /tmp/agent-cert.ssl
8.) Set the agent to point to the DCS Manager
./sisipsconfig.sh -h <server ip address or fqdn>
9.) Verify the agent settings
./sisipsconfig.sh -view
./sisipsconfig.sh -export
10.) Force agent registration
./sisipsconfig.sh -forcereg
11.) Test agent to server communications
./sisipsconfig.sh -t
12.) Check the DCS UMC console for the agent
