Follow the next steps carefully for install Tivoli Storage Manager for Linux

Hardware

Have at least 1 GB of RAM for installation

In my installation, i had problems when my Virtual Machine (VM) has only 512MB of memory, ao give more memory, about 1 GB, the install happens without problems. When installer apply the required patchs, the ISC is startup and stopped many times, what generate many error in the all process.

Installing requireds RPM packages

Install the following RPM packages in you Linux OS:

 - compat-libstdc++-33
 - compat-libstdc++-296
 - libXp

if you are using yum, make as follow:

> yum -y install compat-libstdc++-33 compat-libstdc++-296 libXp

Install IBM Java Virtual Machine

Download IBM Java 2 SDK version 1.4.2 and install in you system:

> rpm -ivh IBMJava2-142-ia32-SDK-1.4.2-9.0.i386.rpm

Setting your environment for IBM JVM 1.4.2

Modify your /etc/profile file, adding the following entries:

PATH=$PATH:/opt/IBMJava2-142/jre/bin 
JAVA_HOME=/opt/IBMJava2-142/jre
export PATH JAVA_HOME

save and quit.

Logoff and Logon again, after verify you JVM installed throw this command:

> java -version

In my case:

java version "1.4.2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2)
Classic VM (build 1.4.2, J2RE 1.4.2 IBM build cxia32142-20070708 (SR9) (JIT enabled: jitc))

Create the update Portal directory and change the PATH

Create the update Portal Directory

Obs.: In this article, i'm using the /opt/IBM/ISC/ directory instead of /opt/IBM/ISC601/.

Create the /opt/IBM/ISC/PortalServer/update directory through the follow command

mkdir -p /opt/IBM/ISC/PortalServer/update

Changing PATH

Modify the /etc/profile follow, updating the PATH variable:

PATH=$PATH:/opt/IBM/ISC/PortalServer/update 
export PATH

save and quit

Logoff and Logon, and check the PATH

> echo $PATH

Obs.: This step can seem strange, but after some attempts, I verified that during installation one script made the following command: "cd /opt/IBM/ISC/PortalServer/update; updatePortal.sh", being that the correct one would be "cd /opt/IBM/ISC/PortalServer/update;./updatePortal.sh". What we decide adding in the PATH.

Setting the hostname as FQDN

Check that the hostname is full hostname (Full Qualified Domain Name).

Example: tsmserver.mycompany.com

Another Example:

> cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1              localhost.localdomain            localhost
192.168.1.15           tsmserver.mycompany.com      tsmserver

Updating the /etc/issue file - Only for CentOS

InstallShield checks for Operation System installed to know for it's compatibility or not. We can avoid/mask this check change the /etc/issue file. So the same thinks this OS is a trully Red Hat Enterprise

The original is the following one:

CentOS release 5 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m

Update to:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 1)
Kernel \r on an \m

Logoff and Logon again.
