Please specify where
you want us to install Calypso binaries. It must be a local directory and there should be at least 176MB of free space available. All files will be installed in a "calypso" subdirectory, so if you enter "/opt", the files will actually be placed into "/opt/calypso". Installation Directory: [/opt] |

Please specify where
you want to keep Calypso log files. It must be a local directory and there should be at least 100MB of free space available. All log files will be created in a "calypso/Log_Files" subdirectory, so if you enter "/var/log", the logs will actually be placed into "/var/log/calypso/Log_Files". Log Directory: [/var/log] |

Most of Software
processes run with root privileges, but some are launched by databases and
inherit database access rights. To make sure that registry and log files
can be written to by both kinds of processes we can either make such files
world-writeable or we can grant write access only to processes belonging
to a particular group, e.g. a "calypso" or a "dba"
group. We highly recommend now that you create a new user group and enter its name in the next setup screen. If you choose not to assign a dedicated group to Software processes, you will need to specify the access permissions later. If you're planning to backup Oracle DB you should use "dba" group. Would you like to assign a specific group to Software? [yes] |
||
19. |
Type the Group name and press Enter. Press Enter again. |
Please enter the name
of the group which will be assigned to all Software files and on behalf
of which all Software processes will run.
In most of the cases it's a good idea to create a dedicated "calypso" group. However, if you're planning to use Oracle iDataAgent or SAP Agent, you should enter Oracle's "dba" group here. Group name: sky1 REMINDER If you are planning to install Calypso Informix, DB2, PostgreSQL, Sybase or Lotus Notes iDataAgent, please make sure to include Informix, DB2, etc. users into group "sky1".

Certain Calypso
packages can be associated with a virtual IP, or in other words, installed
on a "virtual machine" belonging to some cluster. At any given time the
virtual machine's services and IP address are active on only one of the
cluster's servers. The virtual machine can "fail-over" from one server to
another, which includes stopping services and deactivating IP address on
the first server and activating the IP address/services on the other server. Currently you have Calypso installed on physical node client.company.com. Now you have a choice of either adding another package to the existing installation or configure Calypso on a virtual machine for use in a cluster. 1) Add another package to client.company.com 2) Install Calypso on a virtual machine 3) Exit Your choice: [1] |
