Installing the First Node of a Cluster for a Deployment Installation

Install Sybase Unwired WorkSpace, JDK 1.6.0_16, Sybase Control Center, and Unwired Server on the first 64-bit server node in a cluster. Do this after installing the data tier on its own host.

Prerequisites

Going through the task flow in Deployment (Production) Edition Task Flows, you should have performed these tasks:

Download a license file. See Obtaining a License.
If you are installing with a served license in an environment where there may not be a port free for the license server to open dynamically on startup, edit your license file to specify a port number. See Setting a Fixed Port Number for SySAM License Server.
(Optional) Create an installation image on your network. See Creating an Installation Image on the Network.
Install the data tier on its own server. See Installing the Data Tier on its Own Host for a Deployment Installation.
Verify that the databases on the data tier server are up and running.
Verify the installation prerequisites. See System Requirements for Unwired Platform.
Verify that you are logged in with administrative rights.
Install Adobe Flash Player 9.0.124+ or FP10.x (recommended).
Shut down any Sybase products, Sybase processes, and associated third-party processes that are currently running on the server where you are now installing. This includes any database servers, OpenDS server, and Sybase Control Center.
Unless you are installing the Deployment Edition of Unwired Platform to coexist with version 1.2, uninstall any existing versions of Unwired Platform. See Uninstalling Sybase Unwired Platform.
Due to a NetBIOS limitation, make sure the host name is fewer than 15 characters. See the Microsoft Help and Support article Naming Conventions in Active Directory (909264).

Note: The host name where you install the first server node of the cluster becomes the cluster by default.

Note:

The deployment edition of Unwired Platform can only be installed on 64-bit Windows systems. This is necessary to provide optimal performance for a production system. When you run the deployment installer on a 32-bit system, only Afaria is available for installation.

Note:

If you run the Deployment Edition installer again on a machine where you have already installed Unwired Platform version 1.5.2, the installer detects the existing installation and takes you to the component selection page as soon as you have accepted the end user licensing agreement. Resume with step 12 in Performing a Custom Installation of Deployment Edition.

Start the Sybase Unwired Platform installer using one of these methods:
- Insert the Sybase Unwired Platform installation media.
- Install from a Web download. Extract the four archives to the same temporary directory on a local disk, not a shared drive.
- Install from an image on the network. You must access the installation image from a mapped drive, not a UNC path.
1. If installing from installation media, select Start > Run.
2. Browse to the location of the setup.exe file on the installation media or in the temporary directory, and click OK.
On the installer welcome page, click Next.

On the license type page, select your license type and click Next.

Option	Description
Evaluation	Allows you to evaluate Unwired Platform for 30 days. A license file is not required.
Unserved (local) license	A standalone license managed locally by your workstation. Be sure you know the location of the license file.
Served (remote) license	A standalone license managed by a license server. Be sure you know your license manager host name and TCP port.

On the end-user license agreement page, accept the terms of the license agreement.
1. Select the appropriate geographic location and read the license agreement.
2. Click I Do Agree to the Terms of the Sybase License, for the Install Location Specified, then click Next.

On the license details page, select or enter the information for your product license. See Locating Information in a License File.

Note: If you enter a combination of values on this page that does not match your license file, the error is not detected until the installer attempts to check out your license on the next page.

Enter your license information.
If you selected "Unserved (local) license" as the license type, on the unserved license file page enter the full path to the license file. Click Browse to browse to the file location.

If you selected "Served (remote) license" as the license type, on the SySAM license manager server page enter the Host Name of License Server and, optionally, change the TCP Port of License Server entry.

If you see a Failed to check out license error, and you think you may have entered license settings that do not match your license, click OK, then click Back to reenter the license settings.
On the installation directory page, accept the default installation directory or choose a different one.
- If the directory does not exist, click OK to create it.
- For best results, use English or Western European characters (cp1252/ISO-8859-1) for the installation directory path and directory names.
- You can use the underscore or hyphen character, but do not use symbols or spaces in the installation directory name.
Note: The directory path where Sybase Control Center is installed varies. If the SYBASE environment variable is defined and valid, Sybase Control Center installs in the directory path specified by the variable. Otherwise, Sybase Control Center installs in a sibling directory to the installation directory specified here. For example, if the installation directory is C:\Sybase\UnwiredPlatform, Sybase Control Center installs into C:\Sybase\SCC-3_0.
On the installation type page, select Cluster and click Next.
On the cluster setup selection page, select Install the first server node and connect it to the data tier and click Next.
A page that says, "One or more required components (prerequisites) are not installed on the system," indicates that the installer has detected missing third-party software.
Click:
- Next to have the installer install the required software.
- Back to select components to install that do not require the third party software.
- Cancel to cancel the current installation.
(Optional) Select additional installation options. The available options on the additional installation options page depend on the selections you made on the component selection page; you may not see all of the options listed below. Choose:
- Configure Unwired Platform communication ports to change default port numbers.
- Set Unwired Platform services to start automatically to start Unwired Platform services automatically when Windows starts. If Unwired Platform services are not set to start automatically, you must manually start these services from the Windows Start menu.
  Note: Set Unwired Platform services to start automatically if you plan to install products that work with Unwired Platform, such as Sybase SAP® DOE Connector and Sybase Mobile Sales for SAP® CRM. If Unwired Platform services do not start automatically, these product installations will encounter problems.
- Use Unwired Platform with an existing JDK Installation to indicate the fully qualified path to an existing JDK installation directory. Sybase Unwired Platform requires JDK 1.6.0_16.
  Note: On 64-bit systems, specify the fully qualified path to an existing 32-bit JDK installation.
