Deploying HCL OneDB and client products with RPM-based installation (Linux)
You can create RedHat Package Manager (RPM) images of a customized HCL OneDB™ product installation to deploy the products with a silent installation. You can use RPM images to deploy the database server and client products in embedded applications. After you install the database server with an RPM image, you must manually initialize the database server.
Before you begin
Creating RPM images
Before you begin
- Check that RPM is installed on your computer.
- Log in as the appropriate user to be the owner of the database server. For more information, see Installation owner.
Procedure
To create RPM images:
Run an interactive installation of HCL
OneDB and associated client products and choose the
RPM installation method. For instructions, see Running an interactive
installation.Follow the instructions for the HCL
OneDB software bundle installation with selected
features (custom setup) in the HCL OneDB
Installation Guide for UNIX™, Linux,
and Mac OS X..
The following RPM images are created in subdirectories under the target installation
directory:
- RPMS/gskcryptgskit_version.linux.processor.rpm
- RPMS/gsksslgskit_version.linux.processor.rpm
- processor/informix-informix_version.processor.rmp
For example, if you install HCL
OneDB version 12.10.FC5 on a Linux x86_64 computer, you generate the following RPM
images:
RPMS/gskcrypt64-8.0.50.20.linux.x86_64.rpm
RPMS/gskssl64-8.0.50.20.linux.x86_64.rpm
x86_64/informix-12.10.FC5-0.x86_64.rpm
