IBM Performance Management

Bypassing the prerequisite scanner

When you install the Performance Management server, a prerequisite scan of your environment starts and takes a few moments to complete. If any requirements are missing, a message directs you to a log file with the reason for the failure. You can enter a command to bypass the prerequisite check. Best practice is to enable the prerequisite scan but, for certain test scenarios, you can bypass the prerequisite scan to save time.

About this task

After downloading and extracting the installation files, take this step to bypass the prerequisite scan.

Procedure

On the system where you plan to install the server, enter the following command:
export SKIP_PRECHECK=YES

What to do next

Run the installation script to begin installing the server without the prerequisite scan.
