Downloading the installation media

Download the installation media from the appropriate product page on Jazz®.net.

Procedure

  1. Go to the downloads section of Jazz.net.
  2. Sign in with your jazz.net ID and go to the software download page.
  3. Search and find the product that you want to download.
  4. Download the package and extract the contents of that package into a temporary location.
    Note: On the UNIX systems, you can use the jar command to extract the package. But after extracting the files, you must run the following chmod command to help ensure that the launchpad program has the correct execution permission:
    chmod -R +x launchpad.sh
    Also note that file sizes larger than 2 GB require a special utility to extract compressed file contents on the UNIX systems. Some Engineering Lifecycle Management packages might exceed 2 GB in file size.
