Description James Livingston 2011-03-31 01:01:13 UTC 
2.3.1/2 in the Installation guide[0] lists the file name of the jar you download as "agent-update-binary.jar". In JON 2.4.1, it is actually called "rhq-enterprise-agent-3.0.1.GA.jar".

That name is in italics, which means it's a variable. The file name changes every release, and I wanted a "filler" name that I could risk updating with a release. I thought that would be easier for customers.

But, that obviously didn't work. :)

So, I have the full name in the 3.0 docs right now.
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Operations_Network/3.0/html/Installation_Guide/Agent_Installation.html#installing-agent

And it's in the 2.4 docs, waiting with a bunch of other bug fixes for me to publish the latest version. I will do that today.

I would recommend doing the following:

"java -jar <previously-downloaded-agent-jar-file> --install"

Roger that, Bob.
