Installing the software

About this task

Install the Rational Synergy software as follows:

Note: If you are installing Rational Synergy on a non-local file system, read Installing onto a remote file system before proceeding.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the installation machine as user root.
  2. Mount the installation media. If your system does not auto-mount the DVD, use the appropriate mount command shown in the following table.
    Platform
    Command
    Solaris
    mount -r -F hsfs /dev/sr0 /cdrom
    AIX
    mount /cdrom
    IRIX
    mount -r -t iso9660 cd_device /media
    Tru64
    mount -t cdfs -o noversion /cd_device /media
    Linux
    mount /media/cdrom
    Note: If your DVD is mounted automatically, you need to know the directory in which the media is mounted.
  3. Set the Oracle home directory and SID.
       $ ORACLE_SID=sargasso; export ORACLE_SID
       $ ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle; export ORACLE_HOME
  4. Run the installation program (ccm_install).
    Note: When running ccm_install, you must set the environment variable ccm_home. Set ccm_home to the path of the directory that is about to be installed. If this installation is your primary installation. Otherwise, set ccm_home to the directory already installed for the current platform when installing secondary platform binaries into installation directories with the -p and -d options.

    You must run ccm_install either on the same machine type as the binaries you are installing, or on a different machine type using the -p[latform] flag to designate the type of binary. If you are using the -p flag, you must use one of the arguments shown in the following table for the flag.

    Platform
    Attribute Value
    Sun
    solaris
    AIX
    ibm or aix
    Tru64
    alpha or dec
    IRIX
    sgi or irix
    Linux
    linux

    The ccm_install program installs into either $CCM_HOME or the directory specified with the -d (destination directory) option. For more information about the -d option, see Installing onto a remote file system.

    If you are using the Bourne shell, the commands for setting the environment variables and executing the install command are as follows:

                   root# CCM_HOME=ccm_home; export CCM_HOME
                   root# PATH=$CCM_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
                   root# /media/ccm/unix/bin/ccm_install -x

    Use the values for ccm_home and media that you entered on the worksheet.

    After installing Linux binaries into /usr/local/ccm70, you can install binaries for Solaris. If you are installing Solaris binaries onto a Linux platform, into the /vol/ccm70/sol directory, the environment setup and installation commands might look like the following:

                   root# CCM_HOME=/usr/local/ccm70; export CCM_HOME
                   root# PATH=$CCM_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
                   root# /cdrom/ccm/unix/bin/ccm_install -x -p solaris -d
    /vol/ccm70/sol
    Note: You are prompted to accept the software license agreement. If you do not agree, the installation terminates. You must agree in order to complete the installation.
    Note: You must set CCM_HOME to your Rational Synergy 7.1 installation directory. Do not leave CCM_HOME set to a previous 7.0 or 6.5 installation, or that installation might be overwritten by Rational Synergy 7.1.

    The ccm_install program prompts you for the router service host name, router service name, router service port number, ESD (engine startup daemon) port number, CCM server port number, license server host name, license server port number, and Rational Directory Server port number. To answer these prompts, refer to items 10 to 19 on the worksheet.
