Installation

The installation steps are divided in the ones for the management server and the ones for the PLOSSYS 5 server.

Hint - replace malloc library

When using PLOSSYS 5 on a Linux system we strongly advice replacing the malloc library with the jemalloc library to prevent memory leaks.

Install the Management Server

  1. Check if all requirements for the management server have been fulfilled.

  2. Download seal-bos2gyros-1.1.9-640.x86_64.rpm.

    Hint - logon data

    You receive the logon data for the SEAL Systems delivery platform from your Technical Project Manager at SEAL Systems.

  3. Install seal-boy2gyros:

    • RHEL:

      sudo yum --assumeyes --nogpgcheck install seal-bos2gyros-1.1.9-640.x86_64.rpm

    • SLES:

      sudo zypper --non-interactive --no-gpg-checks install seal-bos2gyros-1.1.9-640.x86_64.rpm

  4. Install the unpacking program unzip:

    • RHEL:

      sudo yum --assumeyes install unzip

    • SLES:

      sudo zypper --non-interactive install unzip

  5. Install the server part of SEAL Elastic Stack. For how to do this, refer to the SEAL Elastic Stack documentation.

Install the PLOSSYS 5 Server

  1. Check if all requirements for the PLOSSYS 5 server have been fulfilled.

  2. Install the unpacking program unzip:

    • RHEL:

      sudo yum --assumeyes install unzip

    • SLES:

      sudo zypper --non-interactive install unzip

  3. For x86 architecture download the PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm folder. It is saved as PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm.zip. For s390x architecture download the PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm_s390x folder. It is saved as PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm_s390x.zip.

    Hint - logon data

    You receive the logon data for the SEAL Systems delivery platform from your Technical Project Manager at SEAL Systems.

  4. Extract PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm.zip:

    unzip "PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm.zip"

  5. Change to the PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm directory and start the installation of the packages contained there:

    cd "PLOSSYS 5 - 5.7.1.1399 - rpm"

    sudo sh install.sh

  6. Start the PLOSSYS 5 system:
