Installing Linux/UNIX Event Replicator Components on the Replicator Administrator

In order for the Event Replicator to run on a Linux/UNIX system, install components on both the Windows Event Replicator Administrator system and the UNIX system.

 

Note: Before installing the Event Replicator on Linux/UNIX, install the Event Replicator Administrator on a Windows machine and the CONNX Adabas SQL Gateway client component on the Linux/UNIX machine.

 

  1. On the Start menu, click Programs, click CONNX Open Systems Event Replicator and then click UNIX Installer. The Open Systems Event Replication for UNIX Setup window appears.

  1. If the target system has an FTP, SFTP or SCP server enabled, skip to step  4.
     

  2. If the target system does not have an FTP server enabled, select the Manual Copy Installation option and click the Begin Client Installation button.  This option will create the necessary install files in the REPLICATION\INSTALL\UNIX\TEMPINST subdirectory of the CONNX installation directory.  Move these files via an alternate copy method to the Unix server and then proceed to the section Installing the Event Repicator on a Unix Environment.
     

  3. Select an operating system from the Platform list box and  the desired transfer method (FTP, SFTP or SCP).

  4. In the Login area, enter the TCP/IP host name or address for your system platform in Server, the user account name in Username, and the account password in Password.   Enter the installation directory in Path.  

    Note:
    Specifying a Path is optional.  If you do not specify a path, the files will be transferred to the default home directory for the user specified in Username.
