You can use these procedures to install Performance Manager.
Performance Manager must be installed by a user name that is logged on as a local administrator (for example, as the administrator user) on the system where the Performance Manager will be installed. The user name must have the following system privileges, called user rights, to successfully complete the installation:
![]() | Note: The installation program checks the user privileges and asks the user to set these privileges in Step 13. |
These user rights are governed by the local security policy and are not initially set as the defaults for administrators. They might not be in effect when you log on as the local administrator. If the Performance Manager installation program does not detect the required user rights for the logged-on user name, the program can optionally set them. The program can set the local security policy settings to assign these user rights.
Alternatively, you can manually set the user rights prior to performing the installation. Perform the following steps to manually set these privileges:
Windows platform: for the Windows platform, this SSH client support must be provided by PuTTY. If PuTTY is not already installed on your system, you can find the installation software on your Performance Manager CD. The installation program is in the <CD root>SSHClient\PuTTY directory. The wizard to install PuTTY is started using the putty-0.53b-installer.exe file. Accept all default settings as you run the PuTTY installation wizard.
Refer to the section explaining how to customize Performance Manager to run San Volume Controller cluster data collection tasks for information about PuTTY keys.
<WAS_dest-path>\bin\stopServer.bat server1 -username <username> -password <password>where:
<WAS_dest-path> is the destination path, where IBM WebSphere Application Server v5.1 was installed
<username> is the name of a Console user having an Operator or Administrator role, when Global Security is enabled
<password> is the password of the entered user

When you complete these steps, the IBM Director icon that is located in the start tray (lower right corner of the screen) changes to a red diamond indicating that the server has stopped.
If you have AutoRun mode set on your system, the Performance Manager installation program should start within 15 - 30 seconds.
If the LaunchPad window does not open or you do not have AutoRun set on your system, use a Command Prompt to change to the W2K directory on the CD and type:
LaunchPad

Otherwise, accept the selection I do not accept the terms of the license agreement (the default) and click Cancel to exit the installation.
![]() | Note: The Multiple Device Manager Director extensions files will not be installed under the specified destination directory. They will be automatically installed under the IBM Director installation location. |
If you want to reinstall the product, this window is skipped.
This option will install both Performance Manager server and client extensions, on a system where you have installed IBM Director Server 4.12 or greater and also IBM Multiple Device Manager Server, and contains all the product features:
If you select Performance Manager Server (all the product features listed above), the Features Selection window is skipped.
![]() | Note: If you select to install Performance Manager Server on a system where you have installed only IBM Director Console, an error message is displayed and the installation program will stop. |
This option allows you to install client product features, on a system where you have installed IBM Director Console 4.12 or greater and partially, IBM Multiple Device Manager Console. The client product features selection is described in the next window.
![]() | Note: If you select Performance Manager Client on a system where you have installed IBM Director Server and also IBM Multiple Device Manager Server, an error message is displayed and the installation program will stop. |
Select an option and then click Next to continue with the installation. Click Cancel if you want to exit the installation program.
![]() | Note: This window is skipped in the following
cases:
|
If you have previously installed one Performance Manager Client feature (for example, Director Console Extension) you will be given the opportunity to add additional features to the current install or to reinstall the selected features. These already installed features are marked as "(installed)" (in our example, Director Console Extension (installed)).
![]() | Note: If you want to reinstall Performance Manager Client on a system where Performance Manager Client was previously installed with all clients, this window is skipped. |
After you selected the desired features (one or more), click Next to continue with the program installation or click Cancel to exit the installation program.
Click Cancel to exit the Performance Manager installation program.
If you want to manually set these privileges, click No to quit the installation program. See Step 1 for instructions on how to manually set these privileges. Then, log off and log on again to make these privileges take effect.
Click Yes to permit the installation program to update the user rights. When this action is completed, a new pop-up window opens that tells you to log off and log on again to make the privileges take effect. When you log on again, you must restart the installation from the very beginning (from Step 2).
Click Next to continue with the installation, click Back to review what you previously selected or click Cancel to exit the installation program.
You must enter the private key file name, generated before, or select it using the Browse button and then click the Next button to continue the installation. The program will check whether the type of key is correct.
If you do not use a SSH Client, you do not need a SSH2 RSA private key, then you can skip this step by selecting the "Skip this step" check box. If you decide to use a SSH Client later, after Performance Manager installation, you have to generate manually the private key file icat.ppk in the location where PuTTY utility is installed under the pmgrkey sub-directory. For example:
<PuTTY_home>\pmgrkey\icat.ppk
where, <PuTTY_home> is the location where the PuTTY utility is installed on your system.
You can click Cancel to exit the installation process or click Back to go back to the previous window.

Please choose: Use if you want to use the existing database. Drop then create if you want the installer to drop and then recreate a new database with the same name and alias on the specified path/drive, or Cancel if you want to change the database name or the path/drive. |
If you want to also create the database tables, select the Create the database tables check box.
After completing all the fields, click Next to continue the installation. Click Back to review what you previously selected. Click Cancel to exit the installation program.
