Installing with the Demo Installer

Run a demo installation from the RAP Product DVD.

1. Insert the RAP product DVD into the drive.
2. Enter the install command for your platform.

   Install type	Command
   Demo install using default port values for all components.	Sun Solaris: SPARC: <CD_mount_directory>/rap_cd1/setupSolaris.bin -V InstallType=demo AMD: <CD_mount_directory>/rap_cd1/setupSolarisx86.bin -V InstallType=demo Linux: <CD_mount_directory>/rap_cd1/setupLinux.bin -V InstallType=demo IBM AIX: /cdrom/rap_cd1/setupaix -V InstallType=demo
   Demo install using secondary port values. If the default port assignments are currently in use, run the installer with this command to generate a pool of secondary port assignments.	Sun Solaris: setupSolaris.bin –V START_PORT=<startvalue> -V END_PORT = <endvalue> Linux: setupLinux.bin –V START_PORT=<startvalue> -V END_PORT = <endvalue> IBM AIX: setupLinux –V START_PORT=<startvalue> -V END_PORT = <endvalue>

   For example, to perform a demo install on Sun Solaris with a range of port assignments in the 3800 – 4000 range, enter:

   /cdrom/rap_cd1/setupSolaris.bin
   -V InstallType=demo START_PORT=3800 -V
   END_PORT=4000

3. On the Welcome screen, choose Next.
4. Choose a location, then read and accept the license agreement. Choose Next.

   If you do not find a license agreement that matches your location, or if the license agreement is unreadable on your system, choose from all available license agreements on the Sybase Web site at http://www.sybase.com/softwarelicenses.

5. Accept the default target directory, /opt/sybase/RAP, or choose another installation directory.
6. Select Enable multibyte character support if you want RAP to support languages that use multibyte characters. If you do not select this option, the installation continues with single-byte character support. If you plan on using multibyte characters in the future, you may want to install multibyte character support initially. After installation, users cannot switch between multibyte and single-byte data schemas.
   Note:

   Text that is made up of multibyte characters requires more bytes to store and transmit than text containing only single-byte characters.

7. Click Next to initiate the installation. Once the installation begins, you cannot stop it.
8. When the installation is complete, click Finish.

Perform postinstallation tasks.
