Appendix A Cisco Security Agent Installation and Overview
Installing the Linux Agent
Caution If you are upgrading the Solaris agent and you encounter the following error, "There is already an instance of the package and you cannot install due to administrator rules", you must edit the file /var/sadm/install/admin/default. Change "instance=unique" to "instance=overwrite" and then proceed with the upgrade.
Uninstall Solaris Agent
To uninstall the Cisco Security Agent, enter the following command:
# pkgrm CSCOcsa
Note If an agent is running a policy which contains an Agent self protection rule, the agent cannot be uninstalled unless this rule is disabled. (Administrators can generally do this through a remote management session if the default policies applied to the CSA MC/VMS system are not changed to restrict this access.) See Agent self protection in the User Guide for details on this rule type.
A shipped UNIX policy allows secured management applications to stop the agent service. For example, after having logged in by selecting Command Line Login in the options menu of the login screen, all login applications are considered secure management applications. You can now run the pkgrm command to uninstall the agent.

This section details the commands you enter and the subsequent output that is displayed when you install the Cisco Security Agent on Linux systems.
