Connect to Application Server and install a new Application Server.

With a new installation, use the product media, PP installer.

This subsection describes the procedure for a new installation. The installation operation requires the root permission. For details on the notes on installation, see Appendix J.1 Notes on installing and un-installing Application Server.

Note that in UNIX, you can give the operating permissions related to the component software, Component Container, to a general user (Component Container Administrator) who is not the superuser. In such cases, you need to perform operations before and after installation. For details, see 4.1.3 Setting Component Container administrator (For UNIX).

Procedure

1. Log in to Application Server with the root permission (superuser).
2. Check whether the language type for executing the PP installer matches with the language on the terminal where you want to execute the installer, and make sure that the languages match.
3. Set the product media in the CD-ROM drive.
4. If the product media is a CD-ROM, mount the CD-ROM file system.
   An example of command execution is as follows. The underlined part specifies the device special file name, and the mount directory name of the CD-ROM file system. Note that these names vary depending on the OS, hardware, and environment.
   

   (Example of execution in AIX)

   mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /cdrom

   (Example of execution in HP-UX)

   mount -r -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t2d0 /cdrom

5. Start the setup program.
   An example of command execution is as follows. The underlined part specifies the mount directory name of the CD-ROM file system.
   

   (Example of execution in AIX)

   /cdrom/aix/setup /cdrom

   (Example of execution in HP-UX)

   /cdrom/IPFHPUX/SETUP /cdrom

   The CD-ROM setup program installs the PP installer and the resident process auto-start program on the hard disk, and the PP installer starts automatically.
   

   Note

   The coded contents and how to display the contents for the CD-ROM directory and file names might differ depending on the computer environment. Check with the ls command, and enter the displayed file name as is.

6. In the main menu of the PP installer, press the I key.
   The Install PP window appears.
   
7. Move the cursor to the program, and then press the Space key.
   Select all the programs (component software supporting Application Server, and the common modules of the products). <@> appears on the left side of the selected program. Note that you can also select and install a program.
   

   Note

   For details on the component software supporting the products, see 2.2.1(3) Component software supporting the products. The program names displayed by the products vary for the common modules of the products.

8. Make sure that <@> is displayed on the left side of all the programs, and then press the I key.
   The message Install PP? (y: install, n: cancel)==> appears at the bottom of the window.
   
9. Press the y or Y key.
   The installation process starts.
   If you press the n or N key, the installation process is cancelled and you return to the Install PP window.
   
10. When the message indicating the end of installation is output, press the Q key.
    You return to the main menu of the PP installer.
    
11. As and when required, press the L key in the main menu of the PP installer to check the installed programs.
    The Display PP List window appears. If you press the P key, the list of installed programs is output to /tmp/hitachi_PPLIST. Press the Q key to return to the main menu of the PP installer.
    
12. In the main menu of the PP installer, press the Q key.
    The new installation of Application Server finishes.
