About installing UNIX agents

If you are installing a Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, AIX, or Tru64 agent on a system that supports non-English character sets, the destination directory that you choose for the agent must contain only ASCII characters. If you include any non-ASCII characters in the path, the installation will fail.
