   Installing the BEA Tuxedo System

• BEA Tuxedo Core System

• BEA Tuxedo System Workstation

• BEA Jolt

  Note: The BEA Tuxedo Release 7.1 Online Documentation is provided on a separate CD-ROM.

Hardware Requirements

• IBM PowerPC

• 256 MB of RAM

• 1 additional MB RAM for each BEA Tuxedo application, plus 0.5 - 1 MB per application server

Software Requirements

• AIX Release 4.3.2 (supports threads)

• AIX XL C Compiler (BEA Tuxedo development environment only)

• MicroFocus Server Express v1.0 Revision 0000 (BEA Tuxedo development environment only)

  Notes: For BEA Tuxedo Administration Console hardware and software requirements, see BEA Administration Console Requirements.

  For BEA Jolt hardware and software requirements, refer to BEA Jolt 1.2.1 System Requirements.

Network

• TCP/IP, using Sockets network interface

Disk Space Requirements

Package	Disk Space Required
BEA Tuxedo software (client and server)	57010 blocks*
BEA Tuxedo Workstation only	10252 blocks*

* One block is equal to 512 bytes

Note: Disk space requirements for the BEA Jolt Server are provided in Supported Platforms for BEA Jolt Server and BEA Jolt Relay. Disk space requirements for the BEA Jolt Client are provided in BEA Jolt Client Requirements.

No IPC configuration is required for AIX. To change the value of a kernel tuning parameter (maxuproc only):

• Acquire superuser privileges.

• Determine the values of all tunable parameters.

• Change the parameter's value.

• Reboot the system.

Mounting the CD

To mount a CD, examine the file /etc/filesystems to determine whether there is a standard place in which to mount a CD. If so, issue the mount command and specify the directory named in the /etc/filesystems entry. For example:

su
/etc/mount /cd

mounts a CD if /etc/filesystems contains an entry that specifies /cd as the mount point for CDs.

If /etc/filesystems does not contain a CD-ROM entry, execute

su
mkdir /cd
/etc/mount -v cdrfs -r cd_device /cd

where cd_device is the name of the CD-ROM device file, typically /dev/cd0.

Alternatively, you can use the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) to perform the mount. To use SMIT, enter

smit mount
