Installation
HP-UX Server Components
HP-UX Server Components
The installation of the JDBC Server components must be done by a
system administrator who has “root” capability on the server host
where the database resides. A temporary directory, /tmp/jdbc, is used
to stage the installation scripts, and product tar file.
The server components are distributed as a UNIX tape archive (TAR)
file, hpjdbc_XXX.tar, where XXX represents the release number of the
product.
Once the tar file is copied into a staging directory, /tmp/jdbc, extract
the installation shell script from the tar file:
$ tar xf hpjdbc_XXX.tar install.sh
Run the installation script install.sh to perform the actual
installation. The installation script will create the necessary
directories, /opt/allbase/jdbc, extract the server files, and the client
archive files packaged in three formats, and set up the JDBC monitor
startup scripts. Once the installation is complete, you may delete the
tar file and the installation script.
For a complete list of the files that are installed, please refer to
Appendix E , “HP ALLBASE/SQL JDBC File Lists.”
If existing files are found during the installation, they are backed up by
renaming them with a “.1” (dot one) suffix (any existing file with the
“.1” suffix is overwritten). This allows the installer to manually revert
to the previous installation, if desired.
