Installing the Navisphere Host Agent
This section describes how to install the Navisphere Host Agent on a 
server connected to a CX-Series, AX-Series running Navisphere 
Manager, or FC4700 storage system. 
Important You cannot install the Host Agent and the Server Utility on the 
same server. However, you can install them on different servers that are 
connected to the same storage system. If the Server Utility is installed, 
remove it before installing the Host Agent, see To remove the Server Utility on 
page 3-16.
Do not install the Host Agent on a VMware Windows Virtual Machine. 
To install the Host Agent
1. Ensure that all storage systems are connected to the Windows 
server on which you are installing Host Agent. 
2. Log in to the Windows server as the administrator or a user who 
has administrative privileges.
3. In the server’s drive, insert the server support CD that shipped 
with your storage system or your upgrade kit (for AX-Series 
systems upgrading to Navisphere Manager).
The server support menu opens. 
If you do not see the server support menu, follow these steps to 
open it:
a. From the Windows taskbar, select 
Start > Run 
b. In the Run dialog box, enter the following program name, and 
then click OK:
drive:\CXSeries.exe
where drive is the letter for the CD drive. 
4. From the main menu select Install Products on Server.
The INSTALL PRODUCTS page opens.
