IBM System Dashboard for Enterprise Content Management, Version 5.0.0.2

Installing the Dashboard on a UNIX installation

To perform the UNIX installation, you can be logged in as any user. However, if you install the Dashboard on an AIX® server as a user other than root, you cannot use the AIX system management tools, such as System Management Interface tool (SMITTY), to remove or display information about the Dashboard.

  1. Locate the installer that matches the operating system on your server.
    For a graphical installation, start the installer by entering the appropriate command at the system prompt:
    • 5.0.0.2-P8SD-AIX.BIN
    • 5.0.0.2-P8SD-HPUX.BIN
    • 5.0.0.2-P8SD-Linux.BIN
    • 5.0.0.2-P8SD-SOL.BIN

    For a silent installation (with no screen output), add the –silent and –options flags to the command. The following example is for AIX:

    ./5.0.0.2-P8SD-AIX.bin -f Unix/sd_silent_install_unix.txt

    If you copied and modified the options.txt file, here is an example of the command:

    ./5.0.0.2-P8SD-AIX.bin -f /fnsw/local/tmp/opt.txt

    Specify the full path to the options.txt file. During a silent installation, the prompts in the steps that follow in this procedure are not displayed.

  2. At the Welcome page, click Next.
  3. Accept the license agreement terms, and click Next.
  4. Specify the location where you want to install the Dashboard, and click Next
  5. Choose the type of installation, either Typical or Custom, and click Next.
  6. Click Finish to complete the installation process.
