Installing in GUI mode

Insert the DI Suite installation media.

On Windows, the setup program should start automatically.

If it does not start automatically, start the program manually by selecting Start | Run from the Windows Start menu. Browse to setup.exe.
On Solaris, enter the following at the command prompt:
```
/cdrom/setup
```

The Welcome window displays. Click Next to proceed.

Select the geographic location where you are installing to display the agreement appropriate to your region. Read the End-user License and Copyright Agreement. Select “I agree to the terms of the Sybase license for the install location specified” and click Next.

If the country you are located is not listed, select the most appropriate region.

On the Sybase Software Asset Management License Server window, provide the licenses for the components you want to install. For information on various component licenses, see “Obtaining licenses for DI Suite components”.

Use one of these options to enter the licenses:

Specify License Keys – click Browse to select the license file. To select multiple license files, use Shift+Click or Ctrl+Click. The license panel displays the license information.

Alternately, copy and paste the license information directly in the license panel.

If necessary, click Clear to remove the license information from the license panel. Click Next to proceed.

The installer determines if the license you have entered is a served or an unserved license. If you have entered a served license that requires a license server, provide the directory in which you want to install the license server. Click Next. The installer displays an installation summary window and proceeds to install the license server. Click Next.

If you specify a served license that is activated for another machine, then the installation will not proceed. To proceed with the installation, you must set up a license server on that machine, deploy the license, and then select Use Previously Deployed License server option, explained next. To set up a license server, use the installation program available in the SySAM directory on the DI Suite installation media or in the temporary directory where you have extracted the DI Suite installation image.
Use Previously Deployed License server – if you have a previously deployed license server, enter the host name of the machine where the license server is running, and the port number if you use a non-default port number. Click Next.

For more information on SySAM licensing, see the Sybase Software Asset Management User’s Guide.

Depending on the license information you provided, the components that are available for installation appear highlighted. You may see any or all of the following components:

Sybase Replication
Sybase Search
Sybase Data Federation
Sybase Real-Time Events
Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Option

Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Active Messaging is referred to as Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Option in the installer. To install Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Active Messaging, you must have ASE 12.5.4 or later, or ASE 15.0 ESD#2 or later, installed on your machine.

Review and verify the list. If you do not see a component you want to install, return to the previous window and provide the license for the component. Click Next.

Specify the installation directory. Click Browse to select a directory, click Next to accept the default directory, or enter a new directory that will be created. The default directory is C:\sybase on Windows, or /opt/sybase on Solaris. If a Sybase directory exists on your machine, it is recommended to install DI Suite components into this directory.

Make sure that the installation directory name does not have non-ASCII characters or spaces.

If the installation directory you selected already exists, and contains an earlier installation, you see the following message:

You have chosen to install into an existing
directory. Any older versions of the products you
choose to install that are detected in this directory
will be replaced.

Do you want to continue with installation into this directory?

Click Yes to replace the previous installation.

If the installation directory you specify does not exist, you see:

The directory does not exist. Do you want to create it?

Click Yes. If the installer detects the %SYBASE% (Windows) or the $SYBASE (UNIX) environment variable that was created for another Sybase product, you see a message asking if you want to install the components in a different directory. If you proceed to install in a new directory, the existing Sybase products may not work properly. Click No to go back and change the directory. Click Yes to proceed.

If the installer detects an incompatible version of Sybase product in this directory, it displays a warning. For compatibility information of DI Suite components against other Sybase products, see “Interoperability matrix”.

Select the components to install. To select all the displayed components for installation, click Select All Components. Click Next to proceed.

Select either Full or Custom installation type. For more information, see “Determining the installation type”.

Select Full to install all the subcomponents for the selected component on a single machine. For example, if you have selected the Sybase Replication component, the Full option installs all subcomponents available under this component. Click Next.
Select Custom to choose specific subcomponents you want to install for each selected component. For example, if you have selected the Sybase Replication component, the Custom option allows you to install any or all of the subcomponents available under this component. Click Next.

Before you begin a custom installation, you must have a thorough understanding of a typical installation architecture for each DI Suite component. See Chapter 5, “Typical Deployment Scenarios,” for information you may need before using this option.

The installer displays all the subcomponents that are available for each selected component. Review the list to verify the subcomponents you want to install. Unselect the subcomponents you do not want to install. Click Next.

If you have selected to install the Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Active Messaging component (referred to as Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Option in the installer) or Sybase Search components, using Full or Custom options, you are prompted for additional information:

For Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Active Messaging component, enter or select an existing Adaptive Server Enterprise installation directory. Click Next to proceed.

Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Active Messaging supports ASE 12.5.4 or later, or ASE 15.0 ESD#2 or later.

If the installer detects that the Adaptive Server installed in the specified directory is a supported version, it proceeds to the Installation Summary window.

If the installer detects multiple supported versions of Adaptive Server installations, it displays all of them and prompts you to select the versions to install the Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Active Messaging component. Click Next.

If the installer does not detect an Adaptive Server installation in the specified directory, or detects an unsupported Adaptive Server version, you are asked if you want to continue installing without the Sybase Real-Time Events ASE Active Messaging component. Click Yes if you want to continue. Click Next.

For the Sybase Search component, depending on the installation type you chose, the installer displays the configuration parameters as listed in Table 3-2. Modify or accept the default values. Click Next.

**Table 3-2: Sybase Search configuration parameters**
Installation type	Parameter name	Description
Custom	Container ID	Identifies the unique container ID. Enter an appropriate value between 2 and 99.
Full or Custom	Hub Container Port	Identifies the port number on which the single container will run. Enter an appropriate value between 1024 and 65535.
Full or Custom	Container RMI Port	Identifies the port number on which the hub container RMI service will run. Enter an appropriate value between 1024 and 65535.
Custom	Container Port	Identifies the port number on which the satellite container will run. Enter an appropriate value between 1024 and 65535.

The Installation Summary window displays the selections you have made. Review the information, and click Next.

If the software is installed successfully, a final window appears, indicating that the installation was successful. It also advises you to read the configuration guides for configuration information, and the release bulletin for last-minute information about the Sybase DI Suite, and check for software updates on the Sybase download Web page.

Click Finish to exit the installer.

If you encounter errors during installation, check the di_log.txt file in the installation directory, to see a record of the installation process and to troubleshoot the errors.

After successful installation:

Installing additional components

To install additional components after you have completed an initial installation, you can run the DI Suite setup program and select additional components to install. Components that are already installed, are identified as (installed) on the installer window that provides custom selection. Follow the installation steps described in “Installing in GUI mode”.
