Installing Control-M Self Service on UNIX

This procedure describes how to install Control-M Self Service on a Control-M/EM server on UNIX.

Before you begin

• Ensure that the database server that contains the Control-M/EM database is up and running.
• Verify that either the default web server port 18080 or another configured port that you want to use is open.

To install Control-M Self Service on UNIX:

1. Mount the installation CD from the root user and log off the root user before continuing with the installation.
2. Log in to the Control-M/EM account.

   NOTE: If you are using the Graphical User Interface, set the environment variable DISPLAY to value <hostName>:0.0. It is not necessary to set DISPLAY for console mode or silent mode. (For more information, see Setting environment variables in UNIX.)

3. Type the following command:

   <cdPath>/setup.sh

4. Do one of the following:
   • Interactive install: Follow the on-screen instructions until the installation is complete.
   • Automatic install: Do the following:
     1. Follow the on-screen instructions until the Summary window.
     2. Click Generate and select the location to create the XML parameter file.
     3. Click Yes to quit the installation.

        A confirmation message appears.

     4. Click Yes.
     5. Copy the automatic installation parameters file to a network location that is accessible to all computers where you want to perform an automatic installation.
     6. To run the installation script, type the following command:

     <source_path>/setup.sh -silent <source_path/filename.xml>

   In the last screen of the installation you will find the URL to provide to users for accessing the Control-M Self Service web component.

   You can also find the URL by opening the Control-M Configuration Manager, and under All Components, select and right-click Web Server, and Web server URLs.

5. To verify installation, open the Control-M Configuration Manager, and verify that Self Service Server and Web Server components are with a state of Up.
