A.2 Installing the redirector functionality (In UNIX)

Connect to Application Server to install the redirector functionality.

Use the product media, PP installer, for installation.

This appendix describes the installation procedure. The installation operation requires the root permission. For details on precautions when installing the functionality, see Appendix I.1 Notes on the installation and un-installation of Application Server in the manual uCosminexus Application Server System Setup and Operation Guide.

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
    (Example of execution in Linux)
    mount -r -o mode=0544 /dev/cdrom /mnt/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
    (Example of execution in Linux)
    /mnt/cdrom/x64lin/setup /mnt/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.

    Important 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.

    <@> appears on the left side of the selected program. Note that you can also select and install a program.

    Important note

    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.
