ServerView Resource Orchestrator Cloud Edition V3.1.0 Setup Guide

2.1.3 Installation [Linux Manager]

The procedure for manager installation is given below.

Before installing Resource Orchestrator, check that the preparations given in "2.1.1 Preparations" have been performed.

  1. Log in to the system as the OS administrator (root).

    Boot the admin server that Resource Orchestrator is to be installed on in multi-user mode, and then log in to the system using root.

  2. Set the first Resource Orchestrator DVD-ROM and execute the following command to mount the DVD-ROM. If the auto-mounting daemon (autofs) is used for DVD-ROM auto-mounting, the installer fails to start due to its "noexec" mount option.

    Set the same value for the first, second, and third DVD-ROMs in the DVD mount point.

    # mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/hdc DVD-ROM_mount_point <RETURN>

  3. Execute the manager installation command (the RcSetup.sh command).

    # DVD-ROM_mount_point/ RcSetup.sh <RETURN>

  4. Select "2. Manager(Cloud Edition) installation".

  5. Perform installation according to the installer's interactive instructions.

    Enter the parameters prepared and confirmed in "Parameters Used for Installation" in "2.1.1.2 Collecting and Checking Required Information".

  6. A message for disk switching will be output.

  7. Start a different terminal (such as a GNOME terminal), and then eject the DVD-ROM using the following command.

    # eject DVD-ROM_mount_point <RETURN>

  8. Set the second DVD-ROM and wait for the completion of auto-mounting.

  9. Mount the DVD-ROM again.

    # umount DVD-ROM_mount_point <RETURN>
    # mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/hdc DVD-ROM_mount_point <RETURN>

  10. Press the [Enter] key to continue the installation.

  11. Repeat 8. to 10. with the third DVD-ROM as well to continue the installation.

It is necessary to set up the manager after installation. For details, refer to "2.1.4 Setup".

Note

  • Current Directory Setting

    Do not set the current directory to the DVD-ROM to allow disk switching.

  • In Single User Mode

    In single user mode, X Windows does not start, and one of the following operations is required.

    • Switching virtual consoles (using the [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [Fn] keys)

    • Making commands run in the background

  • Corrective Action for Installation Failure

    In the event of installation failure, restart the OS and then log in as the user that performed the installation, and perform uninstallation following the uninstallation procedure.

    After that, remove the cause of the failure referring to the meaning of the output message and the suggested corrective actions, and then perform installation again.

  • If there are internal inconsistencies detected during installation, the messages "The problem occurred while installing it" or "It failed in the installation" will be displayed and installation will fail. In this case, uninstall the manager and reinstall it. If the problem persists, please contact Fujitsu technical staff.

  • Nullifying Firewall Settings for Ports to be used by Resource Orchestrator

    When installing Resource Orchestrator on systems with active firewalls, in order to enable correct communication between the manager, agents, and clients, disable the firewall settings for the port numbers to be used for communication.

    For the port numbers used by Resource Orchestrator and required software, refer to "Appendix A Port List" of the "Design Guide CE".

    However, when port numbers have been changed by editing the services file during installation of Resource Orchestrator, replace the default port numbers listed in "Appendix A Port List" of the "Design Guide CE" with the port numbers changed to during installation.

  • If used ports exist when performing installation, the message "The specified port number Port Number selected for ServerView Resource Orchestrator is already used." will be displayed, and installation will fail. If this happens, please contact Fujitsu technical staff.

  • Destination Directories

    The destination directories are fixed as those below and cannot be changed.

    • /opt

    • /etc/opt

    • /var/opt

  • The following users are added.

    • swrbadbuser

      swrbadbuser is used as an OS account to start the database service for process management. Do not delete this account when Resource Orchestrator has been installed.

    • swrbajobuser

      swrbajobuser is used as an OS account to start service for job execute control.
      Do not delete this account when Resource Orchestrator has been installed.

    • rcxctdbchg

      rcxctdbchg is used as an OS account to start the database service for metering. Do not delete this account when Resource Orchestrator has been installed.
