You can install a stand-alone Db2 Text Search server
silently. The silent installation option takes input values from a response file. You can install
one or more servers for a stand-alone setup. The stand-alone text search server is also known as ECM
Text Search server.
Procedure
To install a stand-alone text search server:
- Create an empty installation directory.
This directory is known as <ECMTS_HOME>.
-
Download the Db2 Accessories Suite for
your platform from the IBM®
DB2® Accessories Suite for Linux, UNIX, and Windows website. Extract it to a temporary directory.
- Log in as user with the required authorities or permissions.
- On Linux and UNIX systems, you need read, write, and execute
permission for the installation directory.
- On Windows systems, you
need administrator authority
- Review the license and edit the ecmts_response.txt file
to customize your settings.
-
Use the setup file ecmts21_install_<platform>.exe to install the stand-alone
Text Search server. Start the installation by issuing the following command:
./<ecmts_setup_file_name> -i silent -f ecmts_response.txt
For example, on Windows systems, issue the
following command:
ecmts21_install_win32.exe -i silent -f ecmts_response.txt
- Verify that the installation was successful.
Check
the installation log file and the folders that were created in the <ECMTS_HOME> directory.
You should see at least bin, lib, config and resource folders.
- Start the server by running the startup script from the <ECMTS_HOME> directory.
- On Linux and UNIX platforms:
bin/startup.sh
- On Windows platforms:
bin\startup
-
