MVCM Installation
- Download the MVCM installer package from BMC Software’s Electronic Product Distribution site.
- Download and install the latest Oracle Java release. MVCM requires Java 1.6_20 or later before installation. To install Java:
- Copy the Java installer package to the MVCM server box using WinSCP or another binary file transfer method. Place the file in a directory like, /usr/iocinst
- Use the RPM install command: rpm -i jdk-6unn-linux-vvv.rpmWhere nn is the release number, and vvv indicates 32-bit or 64-bit Java.
- Copy the installer package to the MVCM server box using WinSCP or another binary file transfer method. Place the file in a directory, like /usr/iocinst. The installer package will be a compressed tar format Linux archive with the name format 'BMC-MVCM-nnn.tgz' where n.nn is the MVCM master version number.
Use ssh (or Putty) and login to the MVCM box as root. Change directories to /usr/iocinst. Do an ls and you should see the BMC-MVCM-n.nn.tgz file. Unpack the installer package using the commandtar xvf BMC-MVCM-n.nn.tgz
which will create a subdirectory named MVCM-nn (eg. 'MVCM-32').
- Change directory into the MVCM-nn subdirectory. This directory will contain the installer scripts install.sh and doinstall.sh.
- To start the install and monitor the progress, use the command:./install.sh
- A successful install will end with a prompt to reboot the server.
- Reboot the Linux server from the command line using the commandreboot
