Installing the Linux Server Component
To install NonStop Essentials - Linux Event Agent, product T0800V01, on Linux servers, follow
these steps:
1. Insert the T0800 installation disk into a CD drive on the CMS. FTP the file WS_SW\NCELINUX
to each Linux server.
2. Enter the following commands on each Linux server:
cd /tmp
mkdir nce-Linux
cd nce-Linux
mv NCELINUX ncelinux.tar
tar -xf ncelinux.tar
This will create a directory nce-Linux within the /tmp directory. The nce-Linux directory
will contain three files: the source, debug table, and binary RPM files.
3. If the yum package manager is installed and configured on the Linux server, follow the
instructions in this step. Otherwise, skip to step 4.
a. Remove the old nce-Linux package, if any, as follows:
yum erase nce-Linux
b. Install the new nce-Linux binary package as follows:
yum install nce-Linux-3.0.0-4.i686.rpm
The version identification number may vary.
c. The yum package manager may determine that other packages must be installed if they
are required by nce-Linux. Respond to any prompts to include installing these packages.
d. If you want to install source files or debug tables, use the yum install command to
unpack the appropriate package. These are not required for execution of NonStop Cluster
Essentials.
e. Verify successful completion.
4. If yum is not available, use the rpm command as follows:
a. Remove the old nce-Linux package, if any, as follows:
rpm –e nce-Linux
b. Install the new nce-Linux binary package, as follows:
rpm –I nce-Linux-3.0.0-4.i686.rpm
The version identification number may vary.
c. The rpm package manager may determine that other packages must be installed if they
are required by nce-Linux. Obtain and install these packages, then try installing
nce-Linux again.
d. If you want to install source files or debug tables, use the rpm -i command to unpack
the appropriate package. These are not required for execution of NonStop Cluster
Essentials.
e. Verify successful completion.
5. Remove the temporary directory as follows:
