Installation guide

Installing on Tru64 UNIX
3.1 Pre-Installation
Rev. 1/9/01–A
3–2 Web-Based Enterprise Service Installation Guide
3.1 Pre-Installation
Follow these pre-installation guidelines. Depending on which WEBES components you wish
to install, ensure that your system meets the requirements described in the appropriate
sections:
WEBES Common System Requirements
Compaq Analyze System Requirements
CCAT System Requirements
RCM System Requirements
3.1.1 WEBES Common System Requirements
The system must meet the following basic requirements before you install WEBES:
Processor architecture—Compaq AlphaServer
Operating system—Tru64 UNIX versions 4.0E to 5.1 ensure support for all WEBES
components.
Minimum 61MB free disk space for installation of all components
TCP/IP services must be installed and running.
Root privileges required
DSNlink is not required for WEBES installation but, if installed, provides SICL
notification to your service provider.
Before you install WEBES on a Compaq Tru64 UNIX system, we recommend that you
install DSNlink Version 2.3E or higher, to take advantage of the full capabilities of
WEBES. At the beginning of the installation, the installation kit tests to see if DSNlink is
installed. If the installation kit finds that no version of DSNlink is installed, it displays a
message. Continue to install WEBES without installing DSNlink. If the installation kit
detects an older version of DSNlink, it terminates the WEBES installation. You must
either delete the older version of DSNlink or upgrade DSNlink to Version 2.3E or higher,
and then start the WEBES installation again. If the installation kit detects that Version
2.3E of DSNlink is installed, the installation continues with no additional messages.
If DSNlink is installed, the system must have a fixed IP address.
Upgrade to V1.22 of the Emulex (EMX) driver if you have an EMX LP6000, LP7000, or
LP8000 adapter (KGPSA–xx) using the SLI2 programming interface. Use of an EMX
driver prior to V1.22 may result in data not being processed correctly.
If an older version of WEBES was previously installed, uninstall it before continuing. See
Section 3.4,“Uninstalling WEBES” for instructions.
