First thing you’ll need is the BigFix installable package available at: http://support.bigfix.com/bes/install/downloadbes.html
Although these screenshots relate to version 8.1, the pre-requisites part of the installation demonstrated here does not change all that much.
You will also need to remember to get ahold of your masthead file. Or at least the license file which you will be activating. I already have an activated license so the process detailed below will show you how to use an already activated masthead file.
That’s it… you now have the pre-requisites installed for this version of Tivoli Endpoint Manager (BigFix).
