   Installing the BEA Tuxedo System

Installing the BEA Tuxedo System on a UNIX Platform

To install the BEA Tuxedo system on a UNIX platform, complete the 9-step procedure provided in this section.

Make sure you install the software in the file system in which the BEA Tuxedo system executables will run. Also, make sure that the person doing the installation and the person who will run tmboot(1) set the LANG environment variable to the same value in their respective user profiles.

It will take approximately 5 minutes to install each package on a local disk; installation on a remote disk may require as much as 10 minutes.

The documentation is provided on a separate CD-ROM.

Note: Before starting the installation of the BEA Tuxedo System, decide whether you want the GUI files that make up the BEA Administration Console to be installed in their default directories. If you want them installed elsewhere, specify the desired directory. For details, see Selecting Directories for BEA Tuxedo System Files.

  1. Log in as the administrator of the BEA Tuxedo system.

  2. Insert the software CD-ROM into the reader.

  3. Mount the CD-ROM as a file system. For platform-specific instructions, see Platform Data Sheets. On most systems you must acquire superuser privileges to perform a mount.

    Note: If your system does not have a directly-connected CD-ROM reader, you can mount the CD-ROM on a remote system, share (export) the CD-ROM file system, and then mount the remote file system. See Platform Data Sheets, for detailed instructions for each platform. Alternatively, you can mount the CD-ROM on a remote system, copy the contents of the CD-ROM directory for your platform to the system on which you plan to install the BEA Tuxedo system, and continue with the rest of the installation procedure.
