3619269 - When installing the SAC Cloud Agent on Unix/Linux, does Tomcat get installed?

Symptom

When requiring the SAC Cloud Agent on Linux, is Apache Tomcat installed?

Environment

  • SAP Analytics Cloud

Resolution

  • When using a Windows based server, you can download and install the Cloud Kit from the SAP Download portal which includes a re-distribution of Tomcat for the Cloud Agent to run on
  • When using a Unix/Linux based server, there is no equivalent cloud kit.
  • To use the Cloud Agent on Unix/Linux, you will need to manually install Tomcat from an Apache download and then download the SAP Analytics Cloud Agent to deploy it as a web app to Tomcat by following this link
  • The Cloud Connector does install a runtime version of Tomcat, but it is only usable by the Cloud Connector.  So if ther cloud agent is also needed, a full Tomcat version needs to be installed on Unix/Linux.
