Installation guide

Installing EAServer

EAServer

• Upgrading your license, for example, from the Developer to the

Advanced Edition

• Reinstalling EAServer 5.5 or adding components or features to your

installation

4 Verify that you have enough space to install the software. See “System

requirements” on page 2.

5 The installer requires a valid X-Windows configuration. Make sure you

can run the

xterm command at the command prompt where you start the

installer.

6 Close any EAServer applications such as “Jaguar CTS” console server

windows, EAServer Manager, and other client applications.

7 Make sure you have at least 150MB of temporary disk space to run the

installation program.

8 (Optional) To view the HTML readme file displayed at the end of the

installation, Netscape must be installed. You can also view the readme file

after the installation completes—see html/docs/readme.htm in your

installation.

Installing EAServer

Installing EAServer takes 10 – 20 minutes, depending on the speed of your

computer.

The setup program installs software in default drives and directories unless you

specify otherwise. If a directory you specify does not exist, the setup program

creates it. The setup program:

• Installs EAServer 5.5 or upgrades an EAServer 5.x installation at the

location you specify.

• Sets the JAGUAR environment variable to represent the EAServer

installation directory.

• Checks whether Sybase Central 4.3 has been installed with other Sybase

products or by an existing EAServer 5.5 installation. If the installer finds

a Sybase Central 4.3 installation, it configures the new EAServer

installation to use the existing Sybase Central installation. You cannot

modify this location.
