To install the Cluster Manager (Java Console) on Linux

  1. Insert the VCS software disc into a drive on the system.

    The software automatically mounts the disc on /mnt/cdrom.

  2. If the disc does not get automatically mounted, then enter:

    # mount -o ro /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
    			
  3. Navigate to the folder that contains the RPMs.

    # cd /mnt/cdrom/dist_arch/cluster_server/rpms

    Where dist is rhel4, rhel5, sles9, or sles10, and arch is i686 or x86_64 for RHEL and i586 or x86_64 for SLES.

  4. Install the RPM using the rpm -i command.

    #rpm -i VRTScscm-5.0.30.00-MP3_GENERIC.noarch.rpm
