Installing and updating the Linux packages

Ensure that you have the required Red Hat Enterprise Linux RPM software packages installed on the Core, Data, and Analytics servers.

Procedure

Install and update your Linux packages:

Upload and extract tenant creation files:

  1. If not already installed, add the following required RPM packages to your version of Linux:
    • rsync (install on Core, Data, and Analytics servers)
    • dos2unix (install on Core server only)
    For example, using the Linux yum utility on the Core server, enter the following command:
    yum install -y rsync dos2unix
    On the Data and Analytics servers, enter the following command:
    yum install -y rsync
  2. Make sure that the files are executable on all servers. To do so, change to your working directory (created in Extracting the multi-tenant installation files), and enter the following command. For example, on the Core server, enter the following command:
    find . –type f | xargs rysnc dos2unix
    Note: Working directory refers to the directory where you extracted
    On the Data and Analytics servers, enter the following command:
    find . –type f | xargs rsync
  3. Make sure that the files are in UNIX format. To do so, change to the working_dir/scripts directory, and enter the following command on each ICFM server: 
    find . –type f | xargs chmod 755
