Downloading Siebel Analytics Installation Files

This task is part of the process Installing Siebel Analytics Components (UNIX).

The following procedure must be done by a UNIX administrator or by a Siebel Administrator with sufficient privileges.

To download Siebel Analytics installation files under UNIX

1. Log in as the user who is to run the Analytics processes.
2. Insert the Siebel Analytics Server installation DVD.
3. Change to the directory where the installation DVD is mounted (or change directory to the downloaded software).
4. Download the Analytics files by using FTP to copy them to the desired server and directory.

   NOTE:  Make sure you FTP them in binary mode.

5. After the files are downloaded, set the read/write/execute permissions for all users on the files.

   CAUTION:  Do not unzip the installation files having a .gz extension. The installation script (sainstall or sainstall-apps) itself unzips these files.

   1. Run the command chmod 777 *.
   2. Run the command ls -la.

      Confirm that all the files have permissions resembling the following entry:

   -rwxrwxrwx   1   an7715    other     74553  Jan 10 11:02  sainstall-apps

6. Run the installer. See Using the Correct Analytics Installation Type.
