Console Mode Installation

Console Mode Installation

You can install Data Archive in console mode on UNIX or Linux.
  1. On a shell command line, navigate to the installation directory where you extracted the files from Informatica_ILM_<release>_<hotfix>.zip.
    The name of this directory and the full path to the directory can contain only the following characters: English letters (A-Z and a-z), numbers (0-9), hyphens(-), underscores(_), and periods(.).
    Verify that only these characters appear in the directory path before you proceed with the installation.
  2. Run
    install.sh
    .
    The Welcome text appears.
  3. Press Enter.

    • To install the product, type 1, and then press Enter.
    • To install a hotfix, type 2, and then press Enter. Go to step 7.
  5. The license agreement appears. To accept the terms of the license agreement, type Y, and then press Enter.
  6. Enter the path and file name of the license key file, then press Enter.
  7. Enter the absolute path for the installation directory.
    • To accept the default installation location, press Enter.

    Data Archive Components
    Description
    ILM Engine and Repository
    Installs the base Data Archive product and configures the repository database. You must install this component before you install Data Vault Loader and Data Discovery and the Data Vault Service for External Attachments.
    This component is required to install the Data Visualization.
    Data Vault Loader and Data Discovery
    Installs the Data Vault Loader and Data Discovery components and configures the web application. Choose this option if you want to archive to file. You must install the ILM Engine and repository before installing this component. You cannot install this component with any other Data Archive component.
    Data Vault Service for External Attachments
    Installs the web application for archiving external attachments to the file-based archive. You must install the ILM Engine and repository before installing this component. You cannot install this component with any other Data Archive component.
    Data Visualization
    Installs the Data Visualization component so that you can create reports. To install this component, you must also select the ILM Engine and Repository component.
  11. Select to create or reuse an ILM repository.
    To create the ILM repository, type N. You must create the ILM repository if this is the first time that you are installing Data Archive and you did not create the schema before installation. Or, select this option if you created the schema but did not create tablespaces and filegroups before installation.
    For installation on IBM DB2, you must create the ILM repository schema and tablespaces before you install.
    Press Enter.
    Enter the database connection details to create the ILM repository. For Data Vault Loader and Data Discovery installation, enter the database connection details for the ILM repository. The following table describes the database credentials:
    Field
    Description
    Database Type
    Database for the ILM repository, such as AMHOME.
    You can install the ILM repository on Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, or IBM DB2.
    Database URL
    Host name and port number for the database instance or SQL server instance.
    Enter in the following format:
    <host name>:<port number>
    Repository Schema Name
    A unique placeholder for tables. This placeholder is different from the default placeholder. If you have already created the repository, the repository schema name must be the same as the repository login name on Oracle databases.
    Repository Login Name
    Login name for a user who has full access to the repository schema. If you have already created the repository, the repository login name must be the same as the repository schema name on Oracle databases.
    If you install Data Visualization, the repository login name cannot contain the following special characters: @ :
    Repository Password
    Password for the ILM repository database user or login.
    If you install Data Visualization, the repository password cannot contain the following special characters: @ :
    Database Service Name/ Database Name
    ILM repository database service name or database name.
    JDBC connections use the Oracle service name to connect to the database. The Oracle service name may not be the same as the Oracle SID. Use the following SQL statement to determine the database service name:
    select name, value from v$parameter where name = 'service_names';
    SSL Enabled
    Check box to confirm the AMHOME database is SSL enabled.
    SSL Enabled is only available when the ILM repository is on Oracle 11g or Oracle 12c.
    -or-
    To use an existing ILM repository, type Y. Select this option to use an existing ILM repository, or if you created the schema, tablespaces, and filegroups before installation.
    Press Enter.
    Enter the database connection details to access the ILM repository. For Data Vault Loader and Data Discovery installation, enter the database connection details for the ILM repository. The following table describes the database credentials:
    Field
    Description
    Database Type
    Database for the ILM repository, such as AMHOME.
    You can install the ILM repository on Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, or IBM DB2.
    Database URL
    Host name and port number for the database instance or SQL server instance.
    Enter in the following format:
    <host name>:<port number>
    Repository Schema Name
    A unique database placeholder for tables. This placeholder is different from the default placeholder.

    Login name for a user who has full access to the repository schema.
    If you install Data Visualization, the repository login name cannot contain the following special characters: @ :
    Repository Password
    Password for the ILM repository database user or login.
    If you install Data Visualization, the repository password cannot contain the following special characters: @ :
    Database Service Name/ Database Name
    ILM repository database service name or database name.
    JDBC connections use the Oracle service name to connect to the database. The Oracle service name may not be the same as the Oracle SID. Use the following SQL statement to determine the database service name:
    select name, value from v$parameter where name = 'service_names';
    Data Tablespace/ Filegroup Name
    Tablespace or data filegroup name, such as AM_DATA.
    Not required for Data Vault Loader and Data Discovery installation.
    Index Tablespace/ Filegroup Name
    Index tablespace or filegroup name, such as AM_INDEX.
    Not required for Data Vault Loader and Data Discovery installation.

    Create Tablespaces?
    Enter Y to create tablespaces or filegroups for the ILM repository.
    Enter N if you created the tablespaces or filegroups before installation.
    For installation on IBM DB2, enter N. You must create the ILM repository schema and tablespaces before you install.
    New Tablespaces
    Existing Tablespaces
    Data Tablespace Name
    Name of the tablespace or filegroup in which to create the ILM repository tables, such as AM_DATA.
    If blank, the installation creates the repository tables in the default tablespace or filegroup.

  14. Press Enter.
    The Pre-Installation Summary displays the installation directory and the products that you selected to install.
  15. Press Enter to start the installation.
    The installer creates the ILM repository if the repository does not exist. The installer adds the database objects and the product metadata to the ILM repository. It also creates a web interface directory on the server.
  16. The Post-Installation Summary indicates whether the installation completed successfully.
    The installer produces a log file about the installation tasks and errors that occurred during installation. You can find the installation log file,
    ILMInstaller.log
    , in the installation directory.
