Preparation

  1. Log in to the UNIX Profile where the OFSAAI database-tier is installed.
  2. Create a folder called adco, and then create three sub-foldersio, data, and lib under adco.
  3. Edit the .profile script and set the following environment variables:
    • ADCO_IO_DIR: Set it to the absolute path of the “io” sub-folder created earlier.
    • DATAFILEDIR: Set it to the absolute path of the “data” sub-folder created earlier.
    • LD_LIBRARY_PATH: Update this environment variable to include the absolute-path of the “lib” sub-folder created earlier.
  4. Stop all OFSAAI services.
  5. Log out of the UNIX session and log in back into UNIX. Verify that the following three environment variables created are set properly:
    • ADCO_IO_DIR
    • DATAFILEDIR
    • LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  6. Start all OFSAAI Services.

Deployment

  1. Download the v1.9 ADCo libraries and place the file libadppmdl.so into the adco/lib subfolder.
  2. Place the monthly license-key and historical-rate files into the adco/data subfolder.
  3. Place the following ADCo files in the adco/io subfolder:
    • ADCO_DefaultValues_INACTIVE.txt
    • ADCO_XMLSettings_INACTIVE.txt
