Installing the Infrastructure Management Server in the standalone mode silently
Where you are in the Installation process
Infrastructure Management Server can be installed silently with Oracle or SAP SQL Anywhere as the database. By default, the Infrastructure Management is integrated and configured with SAP SQL Anywhere. If you want to install it with Oracle, you must configure the Oracle database details in the server_install.options file during installation.
To install the Infrastructure Management Server silently
Do the following:
- Log in to the host computer (as a root user if you are using Linux) on which you want to install Infrastructure Management Server, and delete all the files from the temporary directory:
- (Windows) %temp%
- (Linux) /tmp and /var/tmp
- Extract the downloaded zip files (the installer) to a temporary location outside the following location to avoid any file sharing conflicts:
- (Windows) C:\Program Files
- (Linux) /opt
(Linux) Apply executable rights to all the installation files by running the following command:
chmod -R 755 installationDirectoryFolderName
installationDirectoryFolderName is the name of the folder that contains all the installation files.
For example, chmod -R 755 Disk1
You will need to type the Oracle database administrator, user, and report user passwords in an encrypted form in the server_install.options. No password encryption is needed for SAP SQL Anywhere database. You can encrypt these passwords using the TrueSightPServerMaintenanceTool through the wizard or command line interface:
- From the command prompt, navigate to the Disk1 folder:
- (Windows) <DownloadLocation>\TSIMServer\Disk1\
- (Linux) <DownloadLocation>/TSIMServer/Disk1/
- (Windows) <DownloadLocation>\TSIMServer\Disk1\
Open (or edit) the server_install.options file and and customize the following properties:
From the command prompt, run one of the following commands to start the installation. Type the complete path to the server_install.options file in the command. If the path includes a blank space, enclose the path within double quotes. Installation-related information is not displayed when the silent installation begins. However, installation occurs in the background.
- After the installation is complete, the Installation Summary page is displayed. You can periodically check the installation status by checking the tsim_server_install_log.txt file located at:
- (Windows) %temp%
(Linux) /tmp
- Run the following command to verify the Infrastructure Management installation:
- (Windows) # pw system status
(Linux) # pw system status
A list of pw server processes is displayed.
- Use the following format to define the Infrastructure Management Server URL, and launch the application in a browser.
- (Windows) http(s)://<Infrastructure_Managament_host_FQDN>
- (Linux) http(s)://<Infrastructure_Managament_host_FQDN:Port_number>
- Type the default Admin credentials (User name: admin, Password: admin12345), and click Log In.
The Infrastructure Management console opens.
