IBM Prerequisite Scanner User Manual page 75

Procedure
1. Open the command-line interface and open the ips_root directory.
2. Run the Prerequisite Scanner script file, prereq_checker, as follows:
UNIX
./prereq_checker.sh
"Product_Code [Product_Version][,Product_CodeN [Product_VerN]]..."
[detail]
[outputDir="ips_output_dir"]
[PATH="product_root"]
[-p Product_Code.instance.parameter=value,...]
The following example runs Prerequisite Scanner for Autonomic Deployment
Engine using a configuration file and its associated product code, ADE:
./prereq_checker.sh
ADE 072000
detail
PATH=/opt/ibm/tivoli
Windows
prereq_checker.bat
"Product_Code [Product_Version][,Product_CodeN [Product_VerN]]..."
[detail]
[outputDir="ips_output_dir"]
[PATH="product_root"]
[-p Product_Code.instance.parameter=value,...]
The following example runs Prerequisite Scanner for Tivoli Provisioning
Manager for Windows 2003 and 2008 using product codes, COX and COY.
prereq_checker.bat
"COX, COY 07200000"
detail
PATH="D:\ibm\tivoli"
-p SERVER=IP.PIPE://mytems:1234
The following example runs Prerequisite Scanner for Tivoli zEnterprise
Monitoring Agent using product code KZE. It also sets the location of the results
and log files to ips_output_dir by using the optional outputDir parameter.
Important: You must use the outputDir parameter to specify a location, if you
choose to run Prerequisite Scanner from a CD, DVD, or read-only network
drive. You must have write permissions to write to ips_output_dir; otherwise,
Prerequisite Scanner fails.
Windows
prereq_checker.bat
"KZE 06230000"
outputDir="%TEMP%\ips"
UNIX
./prereq_checker.sh
"KZE 06230000"
outputDir="/tmp/ips"
The Scanner outputs the result.txt file and precheck.log files to the
following locations:
v On Windows systems: D:\temp\ips where TEMP is environment variable for
the temporary folder.
v On UNIX systems: /tmp/ips
