Environment

NetIQ Change Guardian 4.0

Situation

Does the Appliance installation of Change Guardian have the Unix Agent installed on it by default? 
Do I have to install anything on the Appliance installation for Change Guardian to audit the OS? 
Can I audit the Appliance installation for Change Guardian out of the box?  

Resolution

The Appliance installation for Change Guardian does not come pre-loaded with an agent for auditing.  This would be a customization to the Appliance package for Change Guardian which is not supported.  If auditing the Change Guardian server is required the standard installation is recommended over the appliance installation so that it can be customized.  

Cause

The installation package for the Appliance Installation is created entirely to be self containing.
