Linux: Preparing your operating system
Prepare the operating system to ensure a successful installation.
Procedure
-
If you are using IBM GPFS file sharing, set the file system inodes limit to 25000 or higher.
For example, run the mmchfs /dev/gpfs1nsd -F 250000 command. /dev/gpfs1nsd is the HCL Digital Experience installation file system.
-
Set the file descriptor limit to 10240.
- ulimit -n 10240
-
Web Content Manager only: Complete the following steps
to remove any file size limits:
Use the ulimit -f command to set the maximum size of files that can be created. Set this value to at least the size of the largest file you would upload to the content server. The ulimit -f unlimited command removes any limit on file size.
- Install and configure X server
on Linux™ (such as
X Window System or GNOME) to use the graphical user interface the
installation program provides. For information about adding packages,
read your system documentation.Note: If you plan to install with a response file, X server is not required.
-
Ensure that all non-root users have the appropriate permissions to the
/tmp/javasharedresources directory.
For example, the non-root users must have at least 770 permissions.
