2.2.3 Meeting the Hostname and Network Requirements in
Linux
Your Linux server must have a fixed hostname before you run the installation script. You must have
privileges to set or modify this information on your system. For more information, see the
root
Linux system documentation.
2.2.4 Creating an Installation DVD from the ISO Download
If you obtained the ZENworks 10 Configuration Management SP3 ZENworks Reporting Server
software as an ISO image download, you need to create separate installation DVDs for Windows
and Linux to install ZENworks Reporting Server on these platforms.
1 Download the ZENworks 10 Configuration Management SP3 ZENworks Reporting Server
installation ISO image from the
temporary location on your Windows or Linux device.
2 Burn the ISO image to a DVD.
On Linux, optionally, you can simply run the installation program from the ISO mount point,
instead of burning the DVD.
2.2.5 Installing and Configuring the Oracle Client
If ZENworks 10 Configuration Management SP3 is configured for an external Oracle*10g database,
then before installing ZENworks Reporting Server, install and configure the Oracle 10g client to the
same Oracle database used by ZENworks 10 Configuration Management SP3 through the Net
Configuration Assistant.
1 Install the Oracle client on the server on which you will install ZENworks Reporting Server.
The Oracle client must be of the same version as the external Oracle 10g database that you have
configured for the ZENworks Configuration Management server.
On Windows 64-bit platforms, install the Oracle 10g 32-bit client. ZENworks Reporting
Server supports only 32-bit emulation on 64-bit Windows platforms.
On Linux 64-bit platforms, install the Oracle 10g 64-bit client and set the value of the
environment variable
following command:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib32:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
NOTE: The Oracle 10g R2 client is not supported on a SLES 10 server.If you want to install
the Oracle 10g R2 client on a SLES 10 SP3 server, see the Novell Cool Solutions article
"Installing Oracle 10g R2 Database on SLES 10" (http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/
appnote/17778.html).
For more information on how to install the Oracle client, see the
Installation Guide
(http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database10g.html).
Make sure you select Administrator in the Installation Type window.
IMPORTANT: On Linux, make sure that the Oracle client installation directory has Read and
Execute access to all users.
