installing Events service in different host

I'm trying to install the Events service from the Console host:

my configuration 

1-  host has been added successfully  and ssh 10.0.30.43 "passwordless"  which is the other host

2- Java_Home variable is defined in both hosts 

3- vim /etc/security/limits.d/appdynamics.conf

4- checked the error directory  path and found "/opt/appdynamics/platform/product/orcha/21.2.0.363/orcha-modules/bin/orcha-modules" 

5- running both commands from the enterprise console host and both give me the same error 

 bin/platform-admin.sh install-events-service --profile prod --hosts 10.0.30.43 --data-dir /opt/appdynamics/eventsservice --platform-name AppDPlatform 


./bin/platform-admin.sh submit-job --service events-service --job install --args serviceActionHost=10.0.30.43 profile=Prod 

[root@console platform-admin]# bin/platform-admin.sh install-events-service --profile prod --hosts 10.0.30.43 --data-dir /opt/appdynamics/eventsservice --platform-name AppDPlatform

Hi Abdulrahman

I think something went wrong, possibly when you first tried to add it.

For this error, the following will normally work

https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Administer+the+Enterprise+Console#AdministertheEnterprise...

bin/platform-admin.sh remove-dead-hosts --hosts <host name>

Then re-add the host again, and it should now work 

If not, let us know:)

Ciao
