•	What Is GUI-Mode Installation?

•	Starting GUI-Mode Installation on a UNIX System

•	Running GUI-Mode Installation

What Is GUI-Mode Installation?

The graphical user interface mode installation is the graphics-based method of executing the Oracle Installation program. It can be run on UNIX systems.

To run GUI-mode installation, the console attached to the machine on which you are installing the software must support a Java-based GUI. Not all consoles for UNIX systems support Java-based GUIs.

Note:

To install Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager on a UNIX system with a non-graphics console, use silent install mode.

Starting GUI-Mode Installation on a UNIX System

To start the GUI-mode installation process on a UNIX system, follow these steps:

1.	Select a UNIX system that meets the hardware and software requirements described in Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager Supported Platforms

2.	Log in to the UNIX system as the Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager administrator.

3.	Ensure that you have enough free space for the Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager installation.

4.	Install Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager by downloading from the Oracle Web site:

a.	Go to http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/index.html and download the Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager 12c Release 2 (12.2.2) installation file specific to your platform.

b.	Go to the directory where you downloaded the installer, unzip the installer file, and then go to the Disk1/install directory, run the runInstaller.sh to invoke the installation procedure.

Note:

GUI mode is the default for Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager 12c Release 2 (12.2.2) installation. If a GUI interface is not available on your UNIX platform, you will receive an error message and the installation process is aborted.

If a GUI interface is not available on your UNIX platform, you can use silent mode installation. For more information, see What Is Silent Installation?.

5.	Proceed to Running GUI-Mode Installation.

Running GUI-Mode Installation

The Oracle Tuxedo ART Test Manager installer program prompts you to enter specific information about your system and configuration. For instructions on responding to the prompts during installation, see Table 2‑1.
