When you install components, some operating systems provide a method for you to log the installation activities and results with appropriate time stamps. As an additional parameter to the install_wc script, attach 2>&1| tee myfile.log, where myfile.log is a path and file that you choose to log the installation.

To install the SafeLinx Client on a Linux system:
- Download the SafeLinx Client for Linux from the HCL License & Download Portal. The file name is linux-client-x86_64-616.tar.gz for the 64-bit version.
