Example: Installing TimesTen Software on Local Storage

This example illustrates how to install TimesTen software on local storage. Perform this procedure on both nodes.

1. Create the /etc/TimesTen directory and set the permission for the timesten user.

   phys-schost-1# mkdir /etc/TimesTen
   phys-schost-1# chgrp -R timesten /etc/TimesTen
   phys-schost-1# chmod 775 /etc/TimesTen
   
   phys-schost-2# mkdir /etc/TimesTen
   phys-schost-2# chgrp -R timesten /etc/TimesTen
   phys-schost-2# chmod 775 /etc/TimesTen

2. Log in as the TimesTen user.

   phys-schost-1# su - timesten
   phys-schost-2# su - timesten

3. Create the data directory /timesten/data on local storage.

   phys-schost-1$ mkdir /timesten/data
   phys-schost-2$ mkdir /timesten/data

4. Change to your software directory and install the TimesTen software on both nodes.

   phys-schost-1$ cd /repository/
   phys-schost-1$ tar xf timesten1122.tar
   phys-schost-1$ cd ./solx8664
   phys-schost-1$ ./setup.sh

   Provide the following answers to the questions. Most prompts in this example accept the default.

   Please choose an instance name for this installation? [ tt1122 ] 
   Instance name will be 'tt1122'. Is this correct? [ yes ]
   
      Of the three components:    
   
   [1] Client/Server and Data Manager   
   [2] Data Manager Only   
   [3] Client Only  Which would you like to install? [ 1 ]  
   
    Of the following options :    
   
   [1] /export/tt
   [2] /my-data/solx8664   
   [3] Specify a location   
   [q] Quit the installation  
   
   Where would you like to install the tt1122 instance of TimesTen? [ 1 ] 3 
   Please specify a directory to install TimesTen? [ /export/tt ] /timesten  
   Where would you like to create 
   the daemon home directory? [ /timesten/TimesTen/tt1122/info ] 
   Would you like to specify a different location for the daemon logs? [ no ] 
   Do you want to use the default port number for the TimesTen daemon? [ yes ] 
   Restrict access to the TimesTen installation to the group 'timesten'? [ yes ]  
   Please enter a value for TNS_ADMIN (s=skip)? [  ] s 
   What is the TCP/IP port number that you want 
   the TimesTen Server to listen n? [ 53389 ] 
   Do you want to install QuickStart and the TimesTen Documentation? [ no ]  
   Would you like to install the documentation (without QuickStart)? [ yes ]  
   Where would you like to create 
   the doc directory (s=skip)? [ /timesten/TimesTen/tt1122/doc ]

   Repeat this step on the other node.

5. Adjust the PATH variable to contain the TimesTen binaries, for convenience.

   phys-schost-1$ PATH=$PATH:/timesten/TimesTen/tt1122/bin
   phys-schost-1$ export PATH
   phys-schost-2$ PATH=$PATH:/timesten/TimesTen/tt1122/bin
   phys-schost-2$ export PATH

6. Add the following lines to the /timesten/TimesTen/tt1122/info/sys.odbc.ini file on both nodes.

   [test]
   DataStore=/timesten/data/test
   PermSize=64
   DatabaseCharacterSet=WE8MSWIN1252

7. Connect to the data store.

   phys-schost-1$ ttIsql -e "exit;" test
   phys-schost-2$ ttIsql -e "exit;" test

8. Stop the TimesTen server on both nodes.

   phys-schost-1$ /timesten/TimesTen/tt1122/startup/tt_tt1122 stop
   phys-schost-2$ /timesten/TimesTen/tt1122/startup/tt_tt1122 stop

9. Leave the TimesTen user.
