SCAPI: Preparing your system — Software Packages

Before you can install SmartCloud Analytics Insight (SCAPI) you have to meet the software prerequisites on the RedHat Enterprise Linux Server system you are using to host the SCAPI Data Server Components. Currently only RHEL 6 64-bit is supported.

The documentation names the requirements in several locations of the installation brochure.

I’m using the following command stack to make sure that all software packages are installed:

  • yum -y install libstdc++.i686
  • yum -y install *libstdc++-33*.i*86
  • yum -y install openmotif22*.*86
  • yum -y install pam.i686
  • yum -y install libXpm.i686
  • yum -y install libXtst.i686
  • yum -y install freetype.i686
  • yum -y install libmcpp.i686
  • yum -y install libXdmcp.i686
  • yum -y install libxkbfile.i686
  • yum -y install libpciaccess.i686
  • yum -y install libXxf86misc
  • yum -y install libXm.so.4
  • yum -y install ksh*
  • yum -y install libstdc++.*
  • yum -y install *libstdc++-33*
  • yum -y install openmotif22*
  • yum -y install compat-glibc
  • yum -y install pam
  • yum -y install libXpm
  • yum -y install libXtst
  • yum -y install freetype
  • yum -y install xorg-x11-xinit
  • yum -y install Xorg
  • yum -y install firefox
  • yum -y install openmotif
  • yum -y install atlas
  • yum -y install compat-libgfortran-41
  • yum -y install blas
  • yum -y install lapack
  • yum -y install dapl
  • yum -y install sg3_utils
  • yum -y install libstdc++.so.6
  • yum -y install libstdc++.so.5
  • yum -y install java-1.7*-openjdk.x86_64
    Java is required to get the prerequisite checker executed delivered with the IBM InfoSphere Streams software.
    The packages below are installed because the InfoSphere Streams checker.
  • yum -y install libcurl-devel.i686
  • yum -y install libcurl-devel.x86_64
  • yum -y install fuse-curlftpfs.x86_64
  • yum -y install libcurl.i686
  • yum -y install libcurl.x86_64
  • yum -y install perl-Time-HiRes
  • yum -y install perl-XML-Simple*
  • yum -y install gcc-c++

This command stack includes only those packages, which are provided by RedHat Satellite server.

After you installed all the packages above you have to add the provided RPM package as documented in the installation manual.

I’ve used the following command:

#
# Install provided InfoSphere RPM Prerequisite
rpm -Uvh <streams_unpack_folder>/rpm/*.rpm

Having all this packages installed, allows you to install all SCAPI software components.
