Other preliminary tasks

There are several other tasks you must perform before you install Fathom.

To prepare to install Fathom:

  1. Make sure that you have a valid OpenEdge 10.0B, or Progress Version 9.1D (or later) product installed.
  2. If you have Progress Version 9.1D installed, install the latest service pack. See the "Progress Version 9.1D" section for details.

    Note that you must install the service pack before you install Fathom.

  3. Obtain the serial number and control numbers for your installation of Fathom and the SNMP Adapter (if you have purchased the SNMP Adapter license). This information is shipped with the Fathom installation media.
  4. Obtain the root password for the machine on which you are installing Fathom. You must be logged in as root in order to perform an install (or an uninstall). For more information, see your system administrator.
