After you install IBM® Connect:Direct®,
install Connect:Direct File Agent at
any time.
If you are installing on Linux for zSeries, download the
Java 1.6 software from the manufacturer's Web site before continuing
the installation. Your PATH environment variable must include the
full path to the installed Java software.
To install Connect:Direct File Agent:
- Log on to the UNIX system with the privileges required
to install software.
Installing as root user is not recommended. Most files in the Connect:Direct
installation directory does not need to be owned by the root, so an installation
resulting in all Connect:Direct installation directory files owned by the root
violates the Principle of Least Privilege. A malicious actor may be able to
find a way to take advantage that wouldn’t otherwise be available if only a
limited number of files were owned by root.
