Installing and deploying RepConnector

This section describes how to install and deploy both the RepConnector runtime component and RepConnector Manager.

StepsStarting InstallShield

  1. Insert the RepConnector CD into your CD drive.

  2. Mount the CD:

    • At the command line, enter cd/cdrom/repcon15.0.1hp64.

    • Enter ./setupHP.bin.

StepsInstalling RepConnector components

To install either the RepConnector runtime component or RepConnector Manager after starting InstallShield:

  1. When the InstallShield Welcome window appears, click Next.

  2. On the End-user License Agreement window, select your country and read the end-user license agreement carefully.

    Select I Agree to continue with the installation.

    NoteIf you do not select I Agree, you cannot install the software. You must click Cancel to end the installation process.

    Click Next.

  3. Select one of:

StepsInstalling the RepConnector runtime component

  1. Enter or browse for the name of the directory where the application server is installed.

    For example, if you are installing RepConnector with EAServer, the default location is:

    $SYBASE/EAServer

    Click Next.

  2. If you are installing on BEA WebLogic Server, enter the WebLogic information:

    • Host Name – your machine name.

    • Domain Name – your domain name.

    • Server Name – your server name.

    • Port Number – 7001, or your port number.

    • User Name – your WebLogic user name.

    • Password – your WebLogic user password.

  3. InstallShield tries to connect to the application server by sending a ping command. If the ping is successful, InstallShield takes you to the next step.

    If the ping is not successful, verify that:

  4. In the preview window, verify the size of the installation. If the installation is larger than the space you have available, see your system administrator to reassess the requirements.

  5. InstallShield installs the RepConnector runtime component, then deploys it to the application server.

    If you have an existing RepConnector installation, InstallShield asks if you want to overwrite that installation. Click “Yes” to overwrite, or “Cancel”.

  6. The Sybase Software Asset Management (SySAM) License Server window allows you to designate where RepConnector will find its licenses. Specify whether the licenses are obtained from a license server (a served license) or not (an unserved license).

    NoteFor information about served and unserved licenses, and about choosing the best license server for your environment, see Chapter 2, “Choosing a License Model” of the Sybase Software Asset Management User’s Guide.

    If you answer yes, you must know the host name of the machine where the license manager is running, and the port number if you have used a non-default port number.

    If you answer no, you will be using unserved licenses. You are reminded to download and install the license file after you finish this window.

  7. The SySAM Notification window asks you to configure your server for email notification. When configuration is enabled, designated users receive information about license management events requiring attention.
