Launching RMXCI
From the client terminal window, run the following command:
/home:./rmxci-installation-directory/rmxci/bin/rmxci.sh
where:
rmxci-installation-directory is where you have installed the RMXCI software files. For
more information, see Table 2 (page 17).
Setting the rmxci.sh PATH
To enable a user to launch RMXCI anywhere on the client workstation:
1. In the /home directory, open the user profile (.profile or .bash_profile for the Bash
shell), for example:
/home:vi .profile
2. In the user profile, set the PATH environment variable to include the path of the rmxci.sh
file, for example:
export PATH=rmxci-installation-directory/rmxci/bin:$PATH
where:
rmxci-installation-directory is where you have installed the RMXCI software files.
For more information, see Table 2 (page 17). Ensure that there is no space after the colon (:)
in the path.
3. To activate the changes, either log out and log in again or run the user profile command. For
example:
/home:. .profile
