    Preinstallation tasks for the Presentation Server

    • Confirm that your computer meets the system requirements.
    • Ensure that the BMC Atrium Single Sign-On 9.0 system is installed Open link . The Presentation Server will not operate without Atrium Single Sign-On. Atrium Single Sign-On can be installed on the same computer as the Presentation Server. Review scalability information for the Presentation Server and  Atrium Single Sign-On Open link .
      Atrium Single Sign-On       does not have to be installed as a standalone instance to work with the Presentation Server. A single Atrium Single Sign-On can support one or more Presentation Servers. You can also use the existing Single Sign-On that is integrated with other BMC products while installing the Presentation Server.

    • Ensure that the user who is installing the Presentation Server has the following privileges:

      • (Windows) Administrator privileges.

      • (Linux) A non-root user with modification permissions to the following directories and files. A user with root privileges cannot install the Presentation Server.

        Read/Write and Execution/opt/bmc (Presentation Server installation directory)
    • Complete or review the installation planning worksheets.
    • Review known and corrected issues.
    • If there was a previous Presentation Server installation, it must be completely uninstalled from the system, and any installed security software must not hamper the deletion of any *.war files.
    • Ensure that you delete all files from the temporary directory. 
      (Windows) %temp%
      (Linux) /tmp 
    • If you are installing the Presentation Server on an IPv6 Windows host, ensure that the IP helper service is started.
