<H2><A NAME="HDRIBMCD" HREF="insgu011.htm#PToC_15">7.2 Installing on an IBM RISC
System/6000 from CD-ROM</A></H2>
<P>CD-ROM distributions of Data Explorer contain a mountable file system that
includes the installation scripts (<TT>installdx.sh</TT> for Data Explorer and
<TT>install_lsk.sh</TT> for the NetLS license server software), the
software itself (in tar format) and documentation. The NetLS license
server is used to support the standard licensing mechanism used for
Data Explorer.
<P>
To install Data Explorer, log in as root, insert the distribution media in the
drive, and type:
<PRE>
mkdir /cdrom
</PRE>
<P>
Mount the CD on /cdrom by entering the following command:
<PRE>
mount -r -v cdrfs <CD-ROM-Device> /cdrom
</PRE>
where <CD-ROM-device> is the actual name of the CD-ROM drive on
your system. A typical name is <TT>/dev/cd0</TT>.
<P>
Type:
<PRE>
cd /cdrom
./installdx.sh <platform>
</PRE>
<platform> is used to indicate the platform for which the Data Explorer
files will be extracted. The supported platforms are:
<PRE>
alphax, aviion, hp700, ibm6000, sgi, solaris, sun4
</PRE>
<P>
This argument is optional and the default is the host platform
(ibm6000).
<P>
The installation script will ask if you want to install or deinstall
Data Explorer and then a series of questions related to the installation. You
will be given the opportunity to set the installation directory and to
select the Data Explorer subsystems to install.
<P>
When doing an installation for an architecture other than the current
host, you may need to run the Configure script provided with Data Explorer on
the
workstations to which you expect to export the Data Explorer installation tree.
See <A HREF="insgu029.htm#HDRCFGSCR">Chapter 13. "The Configure Script"</A>.
<P>
After installation and configuration is complete, which may take as much
as 30 minutes, you will be provided with a unique workstation (node)
identifier that must be provided to IBM to acquire the enabling license
information. See <A HREF="insgu013.htm#HDRIBMCFG">7.3 , "Configuring a Data
Explorer License for IBM RISC System/6000"</A> for information
on how to reacquire the identifier (if you lose it) and on how to use
the node identifier to enable Data Explorer.
