StepsInstalling DI Suite components from SPDC

  1. For the DI Suite component you want to install, download the required files to your hard drive. See Table 3-1 for a list of download files for each DI Suite component.

    NoteCertain download files are common to DI Suite components and these common files can be downloaded once for multiple DI Suite components. For example, di_core is common to all DI Suite components and therefore, you can download this file only once for multiple DI Suite components.

  2. Use an appropriate extraction utility to extract the download files to a temporary directory.

    UNIX download files are compressed using the GNU Tar format (.tgz). To uncompress, use the GNU tar utility.

    NoteYou must extract all the files for a specific DI Suite component into a single directory. The setup program may not start if they are extracted in different directories. Also, make sure that the temporary directory name does not have non-ASCII characters or spaces.

    The extracted files include the setup program file, which you can run to start installing the DI Suite components. For installation procedure, see “Installing in GUI mode”.
