1. Double-click the cruise-agent-${version}.exe installer file and follow the prompts to install Cruise.
2. During installation you will be asked to select a root path for your Cruise agent. In addition to holding your agent installation, this directory will contain the source code your agent checks out for every build.

3. After installing the files, the installer will prompt you for the hostname or IP address of the Cruise server. If you leave this blank it will default to the local machine.

   
4. At the end of the installation, Cruise agent registers itself as a windows service and starts running automatically.

1. Double-click the downloaded file to unzip the contents.
2. Drag the Cruise Agent.app icon to the Applications folder. This will also be the directory where the agent checks out and builds the code.
3. Double-click on the Cruise Agent.app icon to open the launcher.

4. The very first time you run the Cruise agent on your machine you will be prompted for the hostname or IP address of your Cruise server. By default it will try connecting to the local machine. Click the OK button to continue.

   

Once the package has been installed you need to configure the hostname or IP address of your Cruise server and start the agent. To do this, do the following:

1. Open /etc/default/cruise-agent in your favourite text editor.
2. Change the line CRUISE_SERVER=127.0.0.1 to list the hostname or IP address of your Cruise server.
3. Save the file and exit your editor.
4. Run /etc/init.d/cruise-agent start to start the agent.

1. Uncompress the package with the command gzip -d cruise-agent-${version}-solaris.gz
2. Install the package with the command pkgadd -d cruise-agent-${version}-solaris
3. By default the agent will try connecting to localhost as the server. To change this, run the following:

svccfg -s svc:/application/cruise/agent:default setprop cruise-agent/server = <Server hostname or IP>
svcadm refresh svc:/application/cruise/agent
svcadm restart svc:/application/cruise/agent 

The following command could be used after installation:

• Check Cruise agents' status with command svcs cruise/agent
• Start Cruise agents with command svcadm enable -s cruise/agent
• Stop Cruise agents with command svcadm disable -s cruise/agent
