You can install an IBM® MQ client on a
Linux® Ubuntu system, using a Debian package, in
accordance with the system requirements web page.
About this task
Install the client by using a Debian installer to select the components that you
want to install. The components and package names are listed in IBM MQ Debian components for Linux Ubuntu systems.
Procedure
-
Open a shell terminal and set your current directory to the location of the installation
packages. The location might be the mount point of a DVD, a network location, or a local file system
directory. You must have root authority to run the following commands. You can do so by adding
sudo before the following commands, or by changing to the root user in the shell
with the su command.
-
For Long Term Support and Continuous Delivery before IBM MQ 9.1.5, you must accept the terms of the license agreement
before you can proceed with the installation.
To do this run the
mqlicense.sh script:
./mqlicense.sh
The license agreement is displayed in a language appropriate to your environment and you
are prompted to accept or decline the terms of the license.
If possible,
mqlicense.sh opens an X-window to display the license.
If you
need the license to be presented as text in the current shell, which can be read by a screen reader,
type the following command, ./mqlicense.sh -text_only
-
For Continuous Delivery from IBM MQ 9.1.5, you have the option of accepting the license before or
after installing the product.
-

listed in Table 1.
To install and use the package listed in the
