Use this procedure to extract and install download images
from the Rational® Synergy
website. If you are loading the software from media, skip this topic.
Procedure
- Create a temporary
directory on a file system with at least 3 GB of disk space. This
space is in addition to the space required for the installed software
as documented. For the latest information on system requirements,
see the Rational Synergy System Requirements document.
mkdir /tmp/synergy_image
- On the Rational Synergy support site,
find the Rational Synergy
downloads page. You see a single file for each platform. Each file
is a gzipped tar archive of the Rational Synergy
installation image for that platform. Download the file or files that
you need into your temporary directory.
Extract the installation image:
cd /tmp/synergy_image
cat download.tar.gz | gzip -d | tar xf -
- Proceed with the
installation as directed in Installing the software, as
if the temporary directory was your DVD mount point. Add any other
flags required by the installation or upgrade procedure you are following.
/tmp/synergy_image/ccm/unix/bin/ccm_install -x -d
ccm_home
- After installation
is complete, remove the temporary directory and its contents.
rm -rf /tmp/synergy_image
