The Data Mover Agent can be installed on a Linux Teradata server using the following procedure. You cannot use PUT to install or configure the Data Mover agent on a non-Teradata server, you must use dminstallupgradeagent.
  1. Enter ./dminstallupgradeagent at the command line to install the Data Mover agent and TTU packages.
  2. Answer the prompts as needed, press Enter to accept the defaults where appropriate.
  3. Enter rpm -qa |grep DMAgent to verify the installation.
  4. Follow the steps in Configuring ActiveMQ on Remote Agents if this is the first time installing or upgrading a standalone agent using this script.
    Once a standalone remote agent has been set up manually, the settings are preserved across upgrades.
