Installing with Root User
Procedure
- Download the package from the TIBCO download site https://edelivery.tibco.com.
- Unzip the package to a local directory.
-
Upload the installation package (example:
cyberlinux.64.tar for a Linux system) in binary format to a temporary directory on the UNIX system.
You can use multiple ways to upload the file to the UNIX system. For example, to use FTP to copy the package, you can use the following commands at the DOS command prompt:
ftp UNIX_machine_name/IP_address cd /usr/tmp bin put cyberlinux.64.tar bye
- Configure the UNIX system.
- On the command line, navigate to the temporary directory where the installation package is located.
-
Use the
tar command to extract the installation files.
tar -xvf MFT_tar_file_name
For example,
tar -xvf cyberlinux.64.tar
-
Run the
install script by using the following command.
./installNote: For information about configuring command line options when you run the script, see the supported installation parameters.
- Press Enter after you finish reading the license agreement, and then type Yes to accept the license agreement.
-
Type
Y or
y to accept the default installation directory
/mftps.
If you want to choose another directory, type N or n so you can enter an installation path. The new directory is created if it does not exist.
-
If you are installing in the same directory as a prior installation, type Y or y to restore the existing configuration files or type N or n to bypass restoring the configuration files.
If you do not restore the existing configuration files, they are saved in folder: $CFROOT/BACKUP_CONFIG.
-
Type
Y or
y to accept the default group names:
cfadmin,
cftransfer, and
cfbrowse.
If you want to choose another group, type N or n so you can enter each group name. For more information, see Group Requirements.
- Type Y or y if you want to create symbolic links in the /usr/lib directory for each file in the /libs directory.
-
Type
Y or
y to create a Command Center (CC) node. Enter the node name, host, and port when prompted.
-
Review the following information in the final installation message:
- Location of the configuration file (by default $CFROOT/config): you can use the configuration file to configure server settings. For more information, see TIBCO Managed File Transfer Platform Server for UNIX User's Guide.
-
At the end of the installation, you are prompted to update three environment variables:
- CFROOT: Defines the Platform Server for UNIX installation directory
- PATH: Defines the path where the Platform Server for UNIX executables are located.
- LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or LIBPATH for AIX): Defines where runtime libraries are located.
