Installing additional products after installing OpenEdge Management

You can add another OpenEdge Management-related product, such as the SNMP Adapter, to an existing OpenEdge Management installation.

To add another OpenEdge Management-related product to an existing OpenEdge Management installation:

  1. Log in as root in a terminal window. If you do not know the root password for your system, consult with your system administrator.
  2. Insert the OpenEdge Management installation CD into the CD-ROM drive.
  3. Enter your platform-specific mount command.
  4. Table 4–1 lists the mount commands for each supported platform (where device-name is the device you are using for the installation and mount-point is the mount-point directory).

    Note: On several platforms, there is an automount daemon that mounts the CD within approximately five seconds. If, however, the automount does not occur on your machine, use the mount command provided in Table 4–1.

  5. Enter the following install command:
  6. mount-point/proinst 
    

    Note: You cannot run proinst if you are in the mount-point directory.

    After you enter the install command, the Welcome screen appears:

  7. Press ENTER. The OpenEdge Path screen appears:
  8. Enter the full path to a supported OpenEdge product. The following Question appears:
  9. If you have multiple instances of OpenEdge and/or OpenEdge Management installed, you might be offered the option of doing a new installation of OpenEdge Management. If this is the case, see the "Installing OpenEdge Management on UNIX" section for details. To install an additional product only, continue with Step 7.

  10. Press Y to continue to install the additional product. The following reminder appears:
  11. Press ENTER. The Product Configuration Data screen appears:
  12. Enter a company name (which can be any character string), the serial number, and the control numbers for the additional product, and then press ENTER.
  13. Press CTRL+E when you finish adding the additional products. The Done Configuration Data Confirmation screen appears, asking if you are sure you are done.
  14. Press Y. The Install Type and Destination screen appears.
  15. Select Continue with Installation. The Complete Installation screen appears, as shown in the following example for the SNMP Adapter:
  16. Press Y to complete the installation. (Press N to terminate the installation and return to the command line of the terminal window.)
  17. After you have completed this step, the installation of the new product begins. An indicator showing the progress of the installation appears. Then a message appears to inform you that the installation program is tailoring the installed files.

    When tailoring is complete, the following message appears:

  18. Press ENTER. The following screen appears:
  19. Choose End the OpenEdge Management Installation or View Release Notes, and press ENTER.
  20. Restart the AdminServer, using the proadsv utility with the following syntax:
  21. proadsv -start 
    

    For more information on proadsv, see OpenEdge Database Management: Database Administration.

    Note: Be sure that you are not root when you restart the AdminServer. If you start the AdminServer as root, root has exclusive ownership and access to the files that you create when running OpenEdge Management. You will be unable to access those files when logged in as a user without root permissions.
