If you are going to install on a UNIX system, create a non-root user account for performing the installation and install as that user. The installation user will own all files you install. When uninstalling, use the same user account that was used at installation time.

Linux systems are often run with their core file size limit set to zero. A consequence of this is that in the unlikely event that the correlator or an adapter crashes, no core file is written, which hinders investigation of the cause of the crash. To avoid this situation, set the core file size to unlimited in the login configuration for each user who runs Apama components.
