This section describes the tasks you must complete before you begin installing a standalone license server. It also lists the steps for installing the license server using different installation modes.
Before you install:
Close any open applications or utilities.
Make sure your installation machine has a DVD drive.
Make sure the machine on which you are installing the standalone license server has a minimum of 77MB of disk space on Solaris and 63MB on IBM AIX.
Create a “sybase” account on your system to perform all installation tasks.
The “sybase” user must have write permissions on the directory where the license server will be installed. The “sybase” user must also have a home directory.
Log in to the machine as the “sybase” user.
User names that contain non-ASCII characters, may casue
the installation to fail.
Maintain consistent ownership and privileges for all files and directories. A single user—the Sybase System Administrator with read, write, and execute permissions—should perform all installation, upgrade, and set up tasks.
