About this Guide

• This guide provides instructions for installing LANSA software on the Linux platform.  During the installation you may install:

• LANSA for Linux

• LANSA Integrator

• the LANSA Apache Module.

• The contents are written for technical support staff and LANSA developers and assume that readers have a solid understanding of both the Linux operating system and LANSA.

• How to install or configure a Linux operating system or any other prerequisite software is beyond the scope of this guide. It is assumed that all the prerequisite software is loaded and configured.

• It is assumed that an experienced System Administrator (root user) of the Linux system is available to carry out system administration tasks and advise the reader on operating system issues.

• It is also assumed that an ORACLE Database Administrator (DBA) is available to create and configure databases, create user ids and advise the reader on ORACLE issues.

• We recommend the use of the Korn shell (ksh) or Bourne shell (sh). All example Linux commands in this guide use the Korn shell.
