Installing the Real-Time Monitoring Tool (RTMT)
You can install RTMT, which works for resolutions 800*600 and above, on a Windows 98, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Red Hat Linux with KDE and/or Gnome client.
Tip Ensure that the RTMT version that you install is compatible with the Cisco Unified CallManager version that runs in your cluster; for example, the RTMT version that supports Cisco Unified CallManager 4.X does not support Cisco Unified CallManager 5.X, but the RTMT version that supports Cisco Unified CallManager 5.0 supports Cisco Unified CallManager 5.1.
To monitor Cisco Unified CallManager 4.X and 5.X clusters simultaneously, you must install multiple versions of RTMT (one version per Cisco Unified CallManager release). If you install multiple versions of the plug-in, you can install the versions on the same client as long as the versions exist in different folders. If the installation detects another version in the folder, a message displays. To continue the installation, install the version in a different folder.
To install the tool, perform the following procedure:
Procedure
Step 1 From Cisco Unified CallManager Administration, choose Application > Plugins.
Step 2 Click the Find button.
