Installing Sybase IQ InfoPrimer Server On UNIX and Linux Using Console Mode

Use console mode to install IQ InfoPrimer Server on UNIX and Linux.

  1. At the command prompt, change to the installation directory, and launch the setup program:
    InfoPrimerServer-15.3.0.shar
  2. Specify whether to install an evaluation copy or a licensed copy:
    • Enter 1 to install and use IQ InfoPrimer Server without a license for 30 days. To continue using IQ InfoPrimer Server after the grace period, you must obtain valid licenses from the SPDC.

    • Enter 2 to install and use IQ InfoPrimer Server with a license.

  3. A list of countries or regions appear. Select your location and press Enter. If you agree to the terms of the license agreement, enter “Y” to continue the installation.
  4. Enter the directory in which to install IQ InfoPrimer Server.
    Note: Do not use folder names with spaces on UNIX or Linux.

    Press ENTER to accept the default.

    If the directory exists, this message appears:
    The specified directory already exists and will be overwritten. [y/n]
    otherwise, this message appears:
    Installation directory does not exist. Create? [y/n]
  5. Enter “Y” to install for all users, to launch the application on user accounts with restricted access rights.

    When all files are started the first time on a user account, those requiring write privileges are copied to the user directory, typically, $HOME/SYBASE/Sybase IQ InfoPrimer Server/<product_version>/Demodata.

    Depending on whether you have selected to install for users, the log files will be located in the \log subdirectory of either the user or the installation directory.

  6. If you have installed a licensed copy, select one of these license methods:
    • Use license file – enter 1 to provide the location of the license file.

      Note: After you provide the license, the installer verifies whether the license is valid. If the license cannot be verified, you can continue with the installation; however, the product will stop working in 30 days, unless you obtain and install an appropriate license.
    • Use previously deployed license server – enter 2 if you have a previously deployed license server.

      Enter the license server host name of the machine where the license server is running, and the license server port number if the port number you are using is not the same as the default.

You see a message indicating a successful installation.
