This section provides an overview of various installation scenarios, and provides the prerequisties for installing DI Suite components.
To install individual DI Suite components or the Standard Edition for the first time:
In GUI mode, see “Installing in GUI mode”.
Using response file, see “Installing using a response file”.
To install additional DI Suite components and subcomponents after an initial installation of DI Suite, see “Installing additional components”.
To install accessory subcomponents in a distributed installation environment, see “Installing accessory subcomponents”.
To install and configure the development tool for the Sybase ETL component, see “Setting up Sybase ETL Development”.
Before you install DI Suite components:
Close any open applications or utilities.
If you are using the installation media for DI Suite installation, make sure your installation machine has a DVD drive.
Make sure that the target computer meets the hardware requirements and operating system requirements for installing DI Suite components. See “System requirements”.
Review the compatibility of DI Suite components against other Sybase products across different versions. See “DI Suite component coexistence matrix”.
Review the SySAM license requirements. See “Licenses for DI Suite components”.
Create a “sybase” account on your system to perform all installation tasks.
The “sybase” user must have administrative privileges on the machine where the DI Suite will be installed.
Log in to the machine as the “sybase” user.
If you specify a user name that contains non-ASCII characters,
DI Suite installation can 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.
If you are installing the RepConnector subcomponent of Sybase Real-Time Events on a BEA WebLogic application server, make sure that you have installed and started the BEA WebLogic application server prior to the installation of RepConnector. Also, make sure you have write permission to the BEA WebLogic installation directory.
For more information, see the BEA documentation for WebLogic.
If you are installing the ASE Active Messaging subcomponent of Sybase Real-Time Events, make sure you have installed:
32-bit version of ASE 12.5.4 ESD#3 or later, or ASE 15.0.1 ESD#1 or later.
