Installing the Presentation Server in the standalone mode using the wizard

Where you are in the Installation process

Failed to execute the [excerpt-include] macro.

To perform a typical installation of the TrueSight Presentation Server in the wizard-based mode

  1. Failed to execute the [excerpt-include] macro.
  2. Failed to execute the [excerpt-include] macro.
  3. Failed to execute the [excerpt-include] macro.

  4. Navigate to the Disk1 directory of the extracted folder and use one of the following options to run the installer.
    If you plan to use Presentation Server with the TrueSight Capacity Optimization component only, run the following command:

    Environment type

    Command

    With the default encryption setting

    • (Windows)  Run setup.exe -J MINIMAL=true 
    • (Linux) As a non-root user, run ./setup.bin -J MINIMAL=true

    With user-specified encryption setting

    • (Windows) setup.exe –J BMC_TS_KEY_SZ=<Encryption> -J MINIMAL=true
    • (Linux - as a non-root user) ./setup.bin –J BMC_TS_KEY_SZ=<Encryption> -J MINIMAL=true

    where Encryption can be either 128 or 256.

    The parameter  -J MINIMAL=true  ensures that the Presentation Server installer proceeds with the installation without validating the minimum system requirements, which includes the check for 32 GB of RAM. When Presentation Server is used with TrueSight Capacity Optimization only, the minimum RAM or memory requirement is 8 GB. When you run the installation using this option, ensure that you perform the post-installation step for skipping the validation.

    If the Presentation Server component is shared with Truesight Operations Management, ensure that the system requirements are met and do not specify the  -J MINIMAL  parameter in the command, unless you plan to install for experimentation purpose. Run one of the following command based on your environment type:

    Environment type

    Command

    With the default encryption setting

    (Windows)  Run setup.exe 

    (Linux) As a non-root user, run ./setup.bin

    With user-specified encryption setting

    (Windows) setup.exe –J BMC_TS_KEY_SZ=<Encryption>

    (Linux - as a non-root user) ./setup.bin –J BMC_TS_KEY_SZ=<Encryption>

    where Encryption can be either 128 or 256.

    Note: Specify whether you want to use 128 or 256-bit encryption. When not specified, the TrueSight Presentation Server uses 256-bit encryption, by default. However, AES 256-bit encryption is not allowed in some countries due to import regulations. You can change the default encryption key size when you invoke the installer.

  19. Failed to execute the [excerpt-include] macro.
  20. Failed to execute the [excerpt-include] macro.
  21. Failed to execute the [excerpt-include] macro.
  22. When you restart the TrueSight Presentation Server, the system requirements are validated. The restart process fails if the requirements are not met. When you use the Presentation Server only with the TrueSight Capacity Optimization component, you can skip this validation by performing the following steps. After you perform these steps, the Presentation Server service is automatically started even if you restart the TrueSight Presentation Server host.
    1. Navigate to the following location:
      • For Windows: <installationDirectory>\truesightpserver\conf\custom
      • For Linux: <installationDirectory>/truesightpserver/conf/custom
    2. Edit the csr.conf file, add the following property, and save the file.
      skipResourceCheck=true
    3. Restart the product service.
    Alternatively, run the following command to forcefully start the Presentation Server service: tssh server start force However, this method does not guarantee the automatic restart of the Presentation Server service after restarting the Presentation Server host.
