Installing Third-Party Products


This topic is part of the process Determining Analytics Installation Requirements.

Before you run the Siebel Analytics installer, you should have completed the component installations shown in Table 12. The number of third-party software components required to be installed or configured depends on the details of your particular deployment. Third-party software documentation is available on the Siebel Business Applications Third-Party Bookshelf, available on CD-ROM.

CAUTION:  Java SDK must be running before you run the Siebel Analytics installer, otherwise key components will fail to work.

Java SDK 1.4.1 or higher

Java must be installed on the same machine on which you are installing Siebel Analytics.

NOTE:  You need this information during the installation. Make a note of the directory where Java is installed. For example, /usr/j2sdk1.4.2_04.

To discover if Java JDK is installed, and which Java version may be used, see the topic About Locating the Java SDK in a UNIX Environment.
