Verify whether the PostgresSQL contrib
modules are also installed. These are optional utilities shipped with the standard package, which may not installed by default. To verify whether the contrib
modules are installed, run the following commands based on your version:
yum list installed | grep postgresql12-contrib
yum list installed | grep postgresql11-contrib
You can install the database by using the executables provided on the BMC Electronic Product Distribution (EPD) site, or you can use an existing PostgreSQL installation.
The following table describes the recommendations for a PostgreSQL database that you can use for optimal performance.

Instance parameters | BMC recommends adding or updating the following parameters in the configuration of the database server in the postgresql.conf or equivalent file: listen_addresses = '*' max_connections = 500 default_statistics_target = 50 constraint_exclusion = on wal_buffers = 8MB min_wal_size = 1GB max_wal_size = 2GB checkpoint_timeout = 15min checkpoint_completion_target = 0.9 log_min_messages = fatal log_min_error_statement = fatal #following parameters should be tuned according #to actual memory available to Database server machine #example of configuration for 8GB RAM maintenance_work_mem = 512MB effective_cache_size = 5GB work_mem = 48MB shared_buffers = 2GB After changing these values, restart the database server. |
Port requirements
The port on which the Automation Console communicates with an endpoint manager must be open, and the application and the endpoint manager must be able to communicate with each other.
The following table provides the port numbers that you must enable for the product.
Important
You cannot change the port numbers after the installation or upgrade. You can use port numbers of your choice only during installation.
