Installing Afaria on a 32-bit System for a Deployment Cluster

Install Afaria on a 32-bit system after you have installed the rest of your cluster components on 64-bit systems.

Prerequisites

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

  1. 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.
  2. On the installer welcome page, click Next.
  3. 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.
  4. On the installation directory page, accept the default installation directory or choose a different one.
    • If this 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.
  5. On the component selection page, click Select All. then click Next.
  6. 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.
  7. (Optional) Select additional installation options. Choose:
    • 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.
  8. On the Windows account page, enter the information for the Windows account under which Sybase Unwired Platform will run.
    Note: The user should be a domain user. If you are installing in a cluster, enter the exact same information on this page as you install on each node. A local account can also be used in installing in a cluster, as long as that account has read/write access to the shared data folder on the data tier machine.
    Option Description

    Use the form, <Windows_domain>\<login_id> or <login_id>, for example, sybase\jdoe, or jdoe. Domain name is optional.

    The account must exist on the local machine and have administrator privileges.

    Windows Account Password

    Enter the password for the account.

    Confirm Windows Account Password

    Reenter the password for the account.

  9. If you selected Afaria Server on the component selection page, but did not select Data Tier on that page, enter server and port information on the port numbers for device management page.
    Option Description
