Remote install procedure

This section is for UNIX or Linux installations only.

To remotely install the ASM software:

  1. Double-click the setup.exe file in the setup folder to start the setup program manually.
    The Welcome dialog box is displayed, informing you that ASM will be installed.
  2. Click Next to continue with the Location dialog box
    In this dialog box, you specify to install the software locally or remote. A local installation is on the computer where you run the ASM Installation Wizard. Remote is on a computer in your network. In this procedure the software is installed remotely.
  3. Click Remote and click Next. The Host Name dialog box is displayed.
  4. Specify this information:
    Host Name
    The DNS name of the host computer on which the ASM software must be installed.
    Login Name
    A user name to gain access to the host computer.
  5. Click Next. The Platform Type dialog box is displayed.

    Every platform uses a different LN porting set. This dialog box helps you to determine which porting set you must use. The installation wizard detects on which platform type you install the ASM software. One or more platform types that are suitable for your machine can be presented.

  6. Select the platform type and click Next.
  7. Specify this information:
    Destination Directory
    The path and the name of the directory where to copy the ASM software. This so-called installation directory, or home directory, of the ASM represents the root directory for all ASM software that you install during this installation session.
  8. Click Next. The Installation Components dialog box is displayed.
  9. Specify the components to install.

    The ASM Installation Wizard installs those components that you select. The other two options with snap-in are unavailable because these options cannot be installed on non-Microsoft platforms.

  10. Click Next.

    The Ready to Install dialog box is displayed, which provides a summary of the installation settings. Check whether the settings are correct.

  11. Click Install to start the installation of the ASM software to the specified directory on the selected computer.
  12. When the installation has finished, click Finish to complete the ASM Server installation.
