Installing the first manager node on UNIX or Linux

Establish your Spotfire Statistics Services cluster by installing the first Manager node.

Prerequisites

  • To add a Manager or Worker node, you must use the same version of the installer that you used to install the first Manager node in the cluster.
  • You must install the Manager node on a separate computer from the Worker nodes.

Procedure

  1. Log on as the user under which Spotfire Statistics Services will run. This must be a valid user account. (We do not recommend using root, because doing so can result in problems.)
  2. Make sure that the user has permissions to write to the desired installation directory.
  3. From the installation media, unpack Spotfire Statistics Services .tar.
    The operating system executable for 64-bit Linux is TIB_sf_statsvcs_10.10.1_linux24gl23_x86_64.tar
  4. Review the release notes (if you have not already done so), and then run .bin to install.
  5. Follow the procedure Running the installer. During the installation, when you complete a step in the console press ENTER to proceed to the next step.
