Chapter 2. Installation and setup of requirementsThe set of software requirements for SmartCloud Analytics - Predictive Insightsand the order in which they must be installed.

System requirements

The system requirements for SmartCloud Analytics - Predictive Insights are listedon the Service Management Connect wiki for SmartCloud Analytics - PredictiveInsights under the section: IBM SmartCloud Analytics - Predictive InsightsRequirements.

Installation order

You must install the SmartCloud Analytics - Predictive Insights requirements inthis order:1. IBM DB2 Workgroup Server Edition 10.1 FP22. IBM InfoSphere Streams 3.13. IBM Netcool/OMNIbus Core 7.44. IBM Netcool/OMNIbus WebGUI 7.4

The order of installation is the same for a single server installation as it is for adistributed, or multiserver, installation.

Note: If Netcool/OMNIbus is installed, we recommend that you create a newinstance for SmartCloud Analytics - Predictive Insights. If you do not have itinstalled, the OMNIbus software can be provided.

Add the required usersThere are two users that must be created to facilitate the installation of SmartCloudAnalytics - Predictive Insights and its requirements.

About this task

The two users that you must create are:v scadminv db2inst1

The db2inst1 user must be created on the server on which you install DB2. Thescadmin user must be created on the server on which analytics is installed, and alsoon the database server.

Procedure1. As root user on the database server and on the analytics server, add the user

account scadmin.The following are the commands that are required to create this user:groupadd scadminuseradd -g scadmin -d /home/scadmin -s /bin/bash scadminpasswd scadmin


2. As user root on the database server, create an OS user within the relevantgroup.groupadd db2iadm1useradd -g db2iadm1 -d /home/db2inst1 -s /bin/bash db2inst1passwd db2inst1

3. As root user on the database server, add the existing scadmin user to the sameprimary group as the DB2 instance owner, by default this user is db2inst1.For example, add the user scadmin to the group db2iadm1.usermod -G scadmin,db2iadm1 scadmin

4. On the database server, add the following source command into the~scadmin/.bashrc file:if [ -f /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile ]; then. /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profilefi

The commands assume two things:v db2inst1 is the DB2 instance owner.v /home/db2inst1 is the home area of the DB2 instance owner

KSH and required librariesSmartCloud Analytics - Predictive Insights requires the installation of KSH andsome libraries.

Before you begin

Note: This is not a statement of the libraries required by the SmartCloud Analytics- Predictive Insights pre-requirements, that is, DB2, InfoSphere Streams, andNetcool/OMNIbus. To find the required libraries for these products, you must runthe product-specific dependency checker scripting or check the product-specificdocumentation.

About this task

The Analytics server requires the following packages:v 64-bit packages:

atlas compat-libgfortran-41 lapack blas

The Database server requires the following packages:v 64-bit packages:

dapl sg3_utils

The following are the required on all servers in the topology:v 32-bit packages:

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5

v 64-bit packages: compat-libstdc++-33


KSH is also a software requirement.

Procedure1. For each required library enter the command, yum install, followed by the

name of that library.2. If you see this error from yum when installing the 32-bit libstdc++ libraries:

Error: Protected multilib versions: libstdc++

Then run yum update libstdc++ and re-try the install.3. If KSH is not on your system, install it as follows:

yum install ksh

Installing DB2 as non-rootDB2 is a requirement of SmartCloud Analytics - Predictive Insights.

About this task

The DB2 installer automatically creates and configures a non-root instance during anon-root installation. As a non-root user, you can customize the configuration ofthe non-root instance during the installation. You can also use and maintain theinstalled DB2 database product without root privileges. The non-root installation ofa DB2 database product has one DB2 instance with most features enabled bydefault.

A non-root installation can be attractive for many groups, such as:v Enterprises that have thousands of workstations and users who want to install a

DB2 database product without consuming a system administrator's timev Application developers who are not typically system administrators but use DB2

database products to develop applicationsv Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) who develop software that does not

require root user authority yet embeds a DB2 database product

Although non-root installations have most of the function of root installations,there are some differences and limitations. You can lift some of the limitations byhaving a root user run the db2rfe command.

Before you install any DB2 database product as a non-root user, be aware of thedifferences between root installations and non-root installations, and the limitationsof non-root installations. For more information on non-root installation, seeInstalling DB2 database servers as a non-root user in the DB2 Information Center.


The following tasks are described in order to allow you install DB2 as a non-rootuser:

Procedure1. Prepare for DB2 installation by installing the required libraries.2. Install DB2 using the non-root user account.3. Enabling root-based features in non-root installations with db2rfe4. If your DB2 installation connection has problems, runs some checks to verify

your installation.

Prepare for DB2 installation as non-rootYou must create the non-root user to carry out the installation of DB2 and add therequired files.

About this task

DB2 can be installed as a non-root user. The ongoing management of DB2 is doneas the DB2 instance owner. Typically the DB2 instance owner is db2inst1.

For more information on DB2 installation prerequisites, see Operating system userlimit requirements (Linux and UNIX) in the DB2 Information Center.

Procedure1. As db2inst1, copy the DB2 installation software to the directory in which you

want to extract it.2. Change the permissions on the folder, if necessary, to be owned by db2inst1.3. As db2inst1, extract the DB2 installation software.

For example:tar zxvf v10.1fp2_linuxx64_wser.tar.gz

Note: The package filename is correct for DB2 installation version IBM DB2Workgroup Server Edition 10.1 FP2

4. As db2inst1, change to the wser directory and run the DB2 prerequisiteschecker script.For example:./db2prereqcheck -v 10.1.0.2

You can ignore alerts in relation to the following:v /lib/libpam.so*v rdmav InfiniBandv modprobe.confv OpenSSH

5. As root, install any packages that are called out as problems by thedb2prereqcheck script.For example:yum install daplyum install sg3_utils

6. Check if SELINUX is enabled, and if so disable it.For example:vi /etc/selinux/configSELINUX=disabled


7. Restart the server if the SELINUX setting was changed.

DB2 installation as non-rootInstall DB2 as the non-root user db2inst1.

Before you begin

Verify your operating system user process resource limits (ulimits). If the minimumulimit values are not met, the DB2 engine can encounter unexpected operatingresource shortage errors. These errors can lead to a DB2 database system outage.See the section Recommended ulimit values for non-root installations in the DB2Information Center for details of the recommended ulimit values.

Procedure1. Log in as the non-root user db2inst1.2. Change to the directory containing the installation software.

For example:# cd /home/db2inst1/db2/wser

3. As db2inst1, run the db2setup script:# ./db2_install

4. Select WSE and click Enter.5. Follow the installation wizard to complete the installation.

Enable root-based features in non-root installations with db2rfeThere are several features and abilities in non-root installations that are initiallyunavailable but which can be enabled by running a the db2rfe command.

About this task

There are further limitations on non-root installations that can be overcome byrunning the db2rfe command. The following features and abilities are initiallyunavailable in non-root installations:v Operating system-based authenticationv The ability to reserve service names in the /etc/services file

They will be enabled using db2rfe_config_file.cfg available in the unpackedPredictiveInsights.tgz

Procedure

To enable the features and abilities that are initially unavailable in non-rootinstallations:1. Navigate to the predictiveInsightsInstaller1.2 directory, that is within the

directory in which you unpacked PredictiveInsights.tgz.2. Copy the sample configuration file, db2rfe_config_file.cfg, to a different

location, for example, /home/db2inst1.3. Update the copied configuration file as needed. This configuration file is input

to the db2rfe command. Our Example enables:v Operating system-based authenticationv The ability to reserve service names in the /etc/services file

Note: Consult DB2 documentation and update as preferred


4. Stop DB2. As db2inst1, run:# db2stop

5. End the server to client process: As db2inst1, run:# db2 terminate

6. Log in with root user authority.7. Navigate to the $HOME/sqllib/instance directory, where $HOME represent's the

non-root user's home directory.8. Run the db2rfe command referring to the updated configuration file. For

example:./db2rfe -f /home/db2inst1/db2rfe_config_file.cfg

Where:v db2rfe_config_file.cfg is the configuration file provided in

PredictiveInsights.tgz.v /home/db2inst1 is the directory to which you copied

db2rfe_config_file.cfg. If you copied this to another directory, pleaseupdate the command syntax to refer to your chosen directory.

DB2 post installation tasksConfigure your DB2 installation so that it is running correctly.

Procedure1. Stop DB2. As db2inst1, run:

# db2stop

2. End the server to client process: As db2inst1, run:# db2 terminate

3. If the port is closed you may need to disable iptables on the DB2 server.As root, run the following commands:service iptables stop/sbin/chkconfig --del iptables

4. Check DB config to ensure SVCENAME is correct.Run the following command as db2inst1:# db2 get dbm cfg | grep SVCENAME

If SVCENAME does not match "db2c_db2inst1" then update using thefollowing command:# db2 update dbm cfg using SVCENAME db2c_db2inst1

5. Verify SVCENAME, as seen in step 4, exists for correct port in /etc/services file. Ifnot then append it to /etc/services file.db2c_db2inst1 50000/tcp

6. Ensure the communication protocols for DB2 instance uses TCPIP.As db2inst1, run:# db2set DB2COMM=tcpip

7. Start DB2:As DB2inst1 run command:# db2start
