This chapter describes the installation processes of ARIS products using different database management systems on Linux operating systems. By default, these installations will create an unprivileged and locked user aris10 which uses /home/ARIS10 to install ARIS itself. If you want to use different settings, make sure to change them before installing the first
rpm
file.
From ARIS 10.0.12.0, ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager and ARIS Server use the same external database management system if configured. When you update your ARIS Server, ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager still uses the database connection as configured for ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager. If you want ARIS Server and ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager to use the same connection, you must first update ARIS Server. Then configure the database connection manually, as described in the ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager Installation Guide. The ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager installation procedure is described in the ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager Installation Guide (see installation media). Documents can be downloaded from Empower, where a login is required, or from the ARIS Download Center.
Before installing an ARIS Server on a Linux operating system, you must provide ARIS Agent to your Linux Red Hat or SUSE system. To allow customizing activities additionally provide the command-line tools ARIS Server Administrator, ARIS Cloud Controller (ACC), and ARIS Scriptrunner. Use the *.rpm files for Red Hat or SUSE systems. After you have copied and installed the files start the remote installation from a Windows system.
All required rpm files are available on the ARIS DVD 2. Windows setup programs are available on ARIS DVD 1. You can find all documents (PDF) on ARIS DVD 3, download documents and access compendiums from Empower, where a login is required, or from the ARIS Download Center. The installation media are described in the order you need them for a Linux installation.
