AIX Application Server
This section describes the software requirements for operating the application using the AIX application server.
Supported Application Servers
Web/Application Server Tier
AIX 7.2 TL5+ Operating System Running on Power5 and Power6 Architecture
UNIX Administrator Userid
The following user groups and accounts have to be created to install and administer the application:
Note: It is recommended that you change the default values for security reasons.
Throughout this document the administrator user ID is often referred to as the “cissys” user id. You should substitute that with the customer defined user id when not using the default value. After the initial install, the software should always be managed using that user id.
By default, the cissys userid is the only one given access to the installed files.
1. Create a group called cisusr (user group).
2. Create a user called cissys. Primary group cisusr. Set the primary shell for the cissys user to Korn Shell.
The shell scripts use the “>” to overwrite shell functionality. Your operating system may be configured to not allow this functionality by default in the users shell.
To avoid file access permission problems when executing scripts, consider placing the following command into cissys profile script:
set +o noclobber
