Professional edition pre-installation requirements on UNIX systems
(headless)
An X Server display is required, even when performing a headless installation, to run the initial
configuration. Before you install DCFM, complete the following:
• Make sure that an X Server is available for display and is configured to permit X Client
applications to display from the host on which they are installing the DCFM Server (typically,
this simply requires that the systems console be present and running with a logged in user on
the X Server-based desktop session, such as KDE, GNOME, and so on).
The Display can be any host X Server (for example, DISPLAY can be set to display configuration
to another UNIX system that has an X based desktop).
• Make sure that the DISPLAY environment variable is correctly defined in the shell with a valid
value (for example, to display to the local console, export DISPLAY=:0.0, or to display to a
remote system that has an X Server running, export DISPLAY=
<Remote_IP_Address>:0.0).
To display to a remote system you need to permit the remote display of the X Server by running
command xhost +IP, where IP is the IP address of the DCFM server host, on a local terminal
window of the X-based desktop of the remote system.
You may also need to consider a firewall that might block the display to the X Server which
listens by default on TCP port 6000 on the remote host.
To display to a remote system you need to permit the remote display of the X Server by running
command xhost +IP, where IP is the IP address of the DCFM server host from the X based
desktop of the remote system.
• Make sure you test the DISPLAY definition by running the command xterm, from the same shell
from which you run install.bin. A new X terminal window to the destination X Server display
should open.
