4 Installing Oracle Communications Services Gatekeeper

This chapter describes how to use the Oracle Communications Services Gatekeeper installers. You must perform the installation on every server in the system.

Installation Platforms and Modes

You can install Services Gatekeeper using the following platform-specific installers for the specified 32-bit platforms:

  • ocsg510_linux.bin

  • ocsg510_solaris_sparc.bin

  • ocsg510_win.exe

These installers bundle the JRockit SDK and Sun JDK for Linux and Windows and the Sun JDK for Solaris.

A generic installer is provided, primarily for 64-bit platforms. There is also a version of the generic installer for 32-bit platforms. Unlike the platform-specific installers listed above, the generic installer does not include a bundled JDK. The JDK must already be installed when you use the generic installer.

The generic installer is contained in:

  • ocsg510_generic.jar

You can run all the installers in GUI, console, or silent mode.

Silent mode is for creating duplicate installations on multiple machines without responding to prompts.

Creating an Installation Log

To create an installation log, add the following option to any of the commands that invoke the installer:

-log=logfilename

where logfilename is a name that you assign to the log file.

For example, the following command runs the console Linux32 Services Gatekeeper installer and creates a log file named install_log containing the installation's output.

ocsg510_linux.bin -mode=console -log=install_log

The GUI Mode Installer

This section contains instructions for using the GUI-based installer to install Services Gatekeeper.

If you want to use the GUI-based installer, the console attached to the machine on which you are installing the software must support a Java-based GUI. All consoles for Windows systems support Java-based GUIs, but not all consoles for UNIX/Linux systems do. If you attempt to start the installation program in GUI mode on a system that cannot support a graphical display, the installation program automatically starts console-mode installation.

GUI mode is the default mode, so it is not necessary to specify the mode on the command line to install in this mode.

Running the GUI Installer on Windows

The Windows version of Services Gatekeeper is supported only for development and test environments. It is not supported for production.

To run the GUI-based Windows installer:

  1. Log in to the Windows system.

    If you are going to use this machine as an Administration Server and you wish to install the Node Manager as a Windows service, you must log in as an administrator. Node Manager is used to monitor, start, and stop server instances in a domain.

  2. Change to the directory where you have copied the installation program.

    You acquire this program from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.

  3. To start the Windows installer, double-click ocsg510_win.exe or enter the following in a command window:

  20. Enter Next to continue.

  21. In the Installation Summary window, make sure the list reflects all the products and JDKs you have chosen to install.

  22. Enter Next to begin the installation.

  23. When the installation is complete, press Enter to exit the installer.

  24. After installation is complete, set the WL_HOME environment variable to the product installation directory that you designated for WebLogic Server.

  25. Export WL_HOME. For example:

    export WL_HOME=your_installation_directory/wlserver_10.3
    cd $WL_HOME/server/native/hpux11/IPF32/ 
    

The Silent Mode Installer

Silent-mode installation is a way of choosing installation settings once and then using those settings to duplicate the installation on many machines. During installation in silent mode, the installation program reads your settings from an XML file that you create prior to beginning the installation. The installation program does not display any options during the installation process. Silent-mode installation works on both Windows and UNIX/Linux systems.

For general information on silent-mode installation on WebLogic Server see the discussion on running the installation program in silent mode in Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server at:

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/doc.1111/e14142/silent.htm

About the silent.xml File

The entries in the silent.xml file correspond to the prompts that you would see if you used one of the interactive modes.

Incorrect entries in the silent.xml file can cause installation failures. To help you determine the cause of a failure, we recommend that you create a log file when you start the installation

The following is a sample version of a silent.xml file. Your input may be slightly different, depending on your installation.

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
  <bea-installer>
  <input-fields>
    <data-value name="BEAHOME" value="d:/ocsg" />
    <data-value name="INSTALL_NODE_MANAGER_SERVICE" value="no" /> 
    <data-value name="WLNGEclipseConfig.dir" value="d:/eclipse/plugin"/>
    <data-value name="LOCAL_JVMS" value="C:\oracle\java\jdk160_18">
    </input-fields>
  </bea-installer>

The following error can be ignored:

com.bea.plateng.domain.script.ScriptException: The template to read must be a jar file containing a valid domain configuration

See Oracle WebLogic Server Installation Guide for more information on using silent installation.

Returning Exit Codes to the Console

When run in silent mode, the installation program generates exit codes that indicate the success or failure of the installation. Table 4-1 describes these exit codes:

Table 4-1 Installation Program Exit Codes

Code Description

0

Installation completed successfully.

-1

Installation failed due to a fatal error.

-2

Installation failed due to an internal XML parsing error.


If you are launching the silent-mode installation process from a script, you can choose to have these exit codes displayed to the console. The following is a sample command file that invokes the WebLogic Platform installation in silent mode and echoes the exit codes to the console from which the script is executed.

Example 4-1 Return exit codes

rem Execute the installer in silent mode
@echo off
ocsg510_win.exe -mode=silent  -silent_xml=silent.xml -log=logfilename

@rem Return an exit code to indicate success or failure of installation
set exit_code=%ERRORLEVEL%

@echo.
@echo Exitcode=%exit_code%
@echo.
@echo Exit Code Key
@echo ---------------
@echo  0=Installation completed successfully
@echo -1=Installation failed due to a fatal error
@echo -2=Installation failed due to an internal XML parsing error
@echo.

Running the Silent-Mode Installer on All Platforms

To run the silent mode installer:

  1. Create a silent.xml file, as described in "About the silent.xml File".

  2. To run the silent installer, do one of the following:

    • To start the platform-specific Windows32 installer in silent mode, enter:

      ocsg510_win.exe -mode=silent -silent_xml=silent.xml [-log=logfilename]
      
    • To start the platform-specific Linux32 installer in silent mode, enter:

      ocsg510_linux.bin -mode=silent -silent_xml=silent.xml [-log=logfilename]
      
    • To start the platform-specific Solaris-Sparc32 installer in silent mode, enter:

      ocsg510_solaris_sparc.bin -mode=silent -silent_xml=silent.xml [-log=logfilename]
      
    • To start the generic 32-bit installer in silent mode, enter:

      java -jar ocsg510_generic.jar -mode=silent -silent_xml=silent.xml [-log=logfilename]
      
    • To start the generic 32/64 -bit hybrid installer in silent mode, enter:

      java -d64 -jar ocsg510_generic.jar -mode=silent -silent_xml=silent.xml [-log=logfilename]
      
    • To start the generic /64 -bit hybrid installer in silent mode, enter:

      java -Xmx1024m -jar ocsg510_generic.jar -mode=silent -silent_xml=silent.xml [-log=logfilename]
      

    The installation proceeds with no prompts.

Where to Go From Here

If you wish to configure support for Services Gatekeeper portal and reporting functionality, see "Installing Services Gatekeeper Reporting and Portal Support".

After installing Services Gatekeeper, you must configure the Services Gatekeeper's Administrative Domain. See "Configuring the Domain for Oracle Communications Services Gatekeeper".

If you wish to be able to start and stop servers remotely, for example by using the Administration Console, you must set up Node Manager on each server. If you installed in Windows, the installer provided an option to install the Node Manager as a Windows service. For information on setting up and configuring the Node Manager on other platforms, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Node Manager Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server at:
