5.0 Installing Fusion and ESM on the Same Node

You can install Fusion on the same node as ESM, either manually or by using scripts.

  1. Install ESM.

    NOTE:Always install ESM before installing Fusion and CDF.

  2. Add the ESM https port in iptables using the following commands:

    1. To find your active zones, use the following command:

      firewall-cmd --get-active-zones

    2. To add the ESM port in iptables, use the following command:

      firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=port_number/tcp --permanent

      NOTE:This step enables you to access ESM externally (outside the firewall).

    3. To reload the firewall so that the changes are applied, use the following command:

      firewall-cmd --reload

  3. Install Fusion.

    For more information, see Section 7.0, Installing ArcSight Fusion by Using Scripts and Section 8.0, Installing ArcSight Fusion Manually.

    NOTE:While installing Fusion, specify a CDF API Server Port that does not use the same port as the ESM server (default 8443). For more information about Fusion ports, see the Technical Requirements for ArcSight Fusion.
