The Sybase IQ server installation media includes the components you need to install an IQ server.
Sybase does not recommend installing Sybase IQ as SU
or via SUDO.
Installing Sybase IQ Server components
Stop any servers currently running in the installation directory.
Insert the Sybase IQ product DVD into the drive.
If the Sybase IQ installer does not start automatically, mount the drive, then enter:
% <DVD_mount_directory>/setup<platform>
where <platform> is the name of your operating system.
On the Welcome screen, click Next.
Choose an installation directory, then click Next.
Choose a product edition, then click Next.
Choose a location, then read and accept the license agreement.
You must accept an appropriate license agreement to install Sybase IQ. You can review all available license agreements on the Sybase Web site.
When the installer prompts you for the Sybase IQ license key(s), do one of the following:
Open the license you downloaded from the SPDC site, and paste the license in the license key text box. Perform this action only if you are installing an unserved license.
Click Browse, navigate to where you stored your license, and choose your license. Perform this action only if you are installing an unserved license.
Click “Use previously deployed license server,” then specify the server’s host name and port number. Use this option to use a previously deployed license server.
Click “Continue installation without a license key.” Use this option to install Sybase IQ in evaluation mode.
Click Next, then choose the appropriate product edition and license type.
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete your installation. Unmount and remove the installation media from the drive, if necessary.
If you install Sybase IQ in grace mode, you can install the product without a license and activate a 30-day grace period. You must obtain an appropriate license from Sybase before the grace period ends.
If you plan to obtain your license from the license server, you must identify the server’s host name and port number. If you do not specify a port number, SySAM software communicates over the first available port in the 27000 to 27009 range.
To configure SySAM to send e-mail alerts, you must identify the SMTP server, SMTP port number, and e-mail recipients. To notify multiple e-mail recipients, use a comma to separate addresses.
