6 Verifying the Offline Mediation Controller Installation

This chapter describes how to verify that Oracle Communications Offline Mediation Controller is installed correctly.

Topics in this chapter include:

• Verifying the Offline Mediation Controller Installation

Verifying the Offline Mediation Controller Installation

To verify the Offline Mediation Controller installation:

• Start the individual component daemons. See "Starting Component Daemons".

• Start the application. See "Starting Offline Mediation Controller".

• Restart the entire system.

Starting Component Daemons

You can verify your Offline Mediation Controller installation by starting component daemons. Because you can install components on different UNIX systems, you must start each component separately.

To start a component daemon:

1. Log on to the system on which Offline Mediation Controller is installed.

   To log in to a newly installed or upgraded Offline Mediation Controller system for the first time, use the default User ID (Admin) and password (admin). Customize your own login profile, and then create user login profiles. Each profile requires a user name and a password.

2. Go to the OMC_home/bin directory, where OMC_home is the directory in which you installed Offline Mediation Controller.

3. Run the following command:

   ./daemon_name
   

   where daemon_name is the daemon name for the Offline Mediation Controller component as follows:

   Table 6-1 Daemon Names for Offline Mediation Controller Components

   Component	Daemon Name
   Administration Server	adminsvr
   Node Manager	nodemgr
   Administration Client	gui

Starting Offline Mediation Controller

To start Offline Mediation Controller:

1. Log on to the system on which Offline Mediation Controller is installed.

2. Go to the OMC_home/bin/ directory.

3. Run the following command:

   ./ProcessControl start
   

   ProcessControl starts the specified servers on the specified ports.

   See the discussion about the ProcessControl script in Offline Mediation Controller System Administrator's Guide.

4. Run the following command:

   ./gui
   

   The Welcome to Oracle Communications Offline Mediation Controller dialog box appears.

5. In the IP Address field, enter the IP address of Administration Server to which you want to connect.

6. In the Port field, accept the default port number.

   If the system to which you want to connect resides on a UDP port other than the default, change the port number.

7. Enter your user ID and password.

   If you are the system administrator logging on to a newly installed Offline Mediation Controller system for the first time, enter admin for the user ID and enter the password that you entered during Offline Mediation Controller installation for the OCOMC admin user. The first time log in, you are requested to change your password. See the discussion about the password policies in Offline Mediation Controller System Administrator's Guide for more information.

   Note:

   Oracle recommends that you change your password at regular intervals to ensure security.

8. Click Connect.

   The Offline Mediation Controller Administration Client window appears.
