IBM APM 8.1.4 : TMOUT variable should not be set when you run the APM server install.sh script

Troubleshooting


Problem

After installing the IBM Application Performance Management SERVER v8.1.4 on Linux, you are seeing that not all APM server processes or services are started; some are stopped and could not be started; some services are also missing.
Example:

[root@<host>#‌ apm status

Service ksy is started (PID 15914).

Service kafka is started (PID 17764).

Service spark is started (PID 18330).

Service txagent is started (PID 21828).

Service scr is started (PID 23345).

Service oidc is started (PID 23570).

Service server1 is started (PID 23910).

Service min is started (PID 24722).

Service apmui is started (PID 25730).

Service oslc is stopped.

Service uviews is started (PID 31552).
