HP: Preparing your operating system | HCL Digital Experience

Prepare the operating system to ensure a successful installation.

Procedure

  1. If you are using IBM GPFS file sharing, set the file system inodes limit to 25000 or higher.
    For example, run the mmchfs /dev/gpfs1nsd -F 250000 command. /dev/gpfs1nsd is the HCL Digital Experience installation file system.
  2. Set the file descriptor limit to 10240.
    For example, run the following command to set the file descriptor limit:
    ulimit -n 10240
  3. Updating operating system settings to enable full core dumps:
    • Use the ulimit -f command to set the maximum size of files to unlimited.
    • Use the ulimit -c command to set the maximum size to cores to unlimited.
    For information about these commands, see your operating system documentation.
  4. Install and configure X server on Linux (such as X Window System or GNOME) to use the graphical user interface the installation program provides. For information about adding packages, read your operating system documentation.
    Note: If you plan to install with a response file, X server is not required.
  5. Ensure that all non-root users have the appropriate permissions to the /tmp/javasharedresources directory.
    For example, the non-root users must have at least 770 permissions.
