Installing the Integration Service and Remote Cell on Microsoft Windows silently

Do the following:

  1. Navigate to the downloaded TSIMAgent.zip file and extract its contents. 

  2. Open and edit the bmc_tsim_is_install.options file. You can either retain the default values for the properties or change them, and save the file. The file defines the installation properties in the form of a prefix tag followed by a property name and value pair. 

    Property details

    Prefix tags for silent installation properties:

    • -P: Precedes directory properties
    • -A: Precedes application features
    • -J: Precedes Java properties
  3. Open the command prompt with the Run as administrator option. Navigate to the install.cmd file, which is available in the extracted zipped folder.

  4. Run the following command:
    install.cmd -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="<fullyQualifiedPath>\bmc_tsim_is_install.options"

    where fullyQualifiedPath indicates the complete path where you have saved the bmc_tsim_is_install.options file. If the fullyQualifiedPath parameter contains a space in it, the path must be enclosed within double quotes.

    install.cmd -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="C:\Temp\bmc_tsim_is_upgrade.options"

    The installation progress is not displayed on the console. However, installation occurs in the background. The installation progress is logged in a temporary folder. 

  5. Go to Start > Run, enter %temp% in the Open box, and view the tsim_agent_install.log file. 

Installing the Integration Service on Linux and Remote Cell on Linux silently

BMC recommends that you use MobaXterm as the UI to install the Integration Service on Linux computers.

Do the following:

  1. Navigate to the downloaded TSIMAgent.zip file and extract its contents. 

  2. Apply executable rights to all the installation files by running the following command: 

    chmod -R 755 installationDirectoryFolderName 

    where installationDirectoryFolderName is the name of the folder that contains all the installation files.

    For example, chmod -R 755 Disk1

  3. Open and edit the bmc_tsim_is_install.options file. You can either retain the default values for the properties or change them, and save the file. The file defines the installation properties in the form of a prefix tag followed by a property name and value pair.

    Property details

    Prefix tags for silent installation properties:

    • -P: Precedes directory properties
    • -A: Precedes application features
    • -J: Precedes Java properties

  4. Run the following command:
    ./install.sh -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="<fullyQualifiedPath>/bmc_tsim_is_install.options"

    where fullyQualifiedPath indicates the complete path where you have saved the bmc_tsim_is_install.options file. If the fullyQualifiedPath parameter contains a space in it, the path must be enclosed within double quotes.

    ./install.sh -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="/opt/bmc/TSIM_Linux_Builds/Linux/TSIM Agent/Linux/Disk1/bmc_tsim_is_install.options"The installation progress is not displayed on the console. However, installation occurs in the background. The installation progress is logged in a temporary folder. 

  5. Open /tmp or /var/tmp and view the tsim_agent_install_log.txt file.

    Do the following after you complete installing as a non-root user on a Linux operating system:

    • Manually copy the S81pronto.<User_ID>.<Agent_Instances> file from the /pw/pronto/bin directory to the /etc/rc.d/rc<Runlevel_Directory>.d directory.

      User_ID - User ID of the logged-in user

      Agent_Instances - Number of Integration service instances on the computer

      Runlevel_Directory - Number of runlevel directory

    • Open the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file, comment the pre-existing S81pronto file entries, and add a fresh entry of S81pronto.<User_ID>.<Agent_Instances> in the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file as shown in the following example:
      #/etc/rc2.d/S81pronto.0.2
      #/etc/rc2.d/S81pronto.0.2
      #/etc/rc2.d/S81pronto.0.2
      /etc/rc2.d/S81pronto.1004.1
    • Revoke the write permissions for the non-root users from the following directories:
      • /etc/patrol.d
      • /etc/init.d, /etc/rc.d/rc0.d, /etc/rc.d/rc1.d, /etc/rc.d/rc3.d, and /etc/rc.d/rc5.d
