Installing Xpress Insight 5 on Linux

FICO Xpress Insight 5 installation requires a server and a worker. Perform both installation steps.
Note Files are saved to the local working directory when using compute (savefile). The savefile in the compute setup is approximately the same size as the amount of memory used by the XPRSprob at the point of starting the compute server solve.

To install Xpress Insight 5 on Linux, perform the following step:

Install Xpress Insight 5 Server

  1. Run the FICO® Xpress Insight 5 installer using the RPM Package Manager (RPM). Enter the following command: 
    rpm --install fico-xpress-insight-server-[version].x86_64.rpm
    Note The exact version details will be provided by your FICO representative.
  2. After successful installation, start the service with the following command: 
    systemctl start fico-xpress-insight-server & systemctl start fico-xpress-insight-worker
    The server will run as a service named fico-xpress-insight-server. By default, the server will create a log file at /var/log/fico-xpress-insight-server/insight-server.log.
  3. Complete any changes to the default configuration after a new installation before starting the worker. To configure logging and other properties, see Configuring Xpress Insight 5 in the Xpress Insight 5 Administrator Guide.

Install Xpress Insight 5 Worker

The worker can be installed on the same machine as the server or can be a remote worker.

  1. Run the FICO® Xpress Insight 5 installer using the RPM Package Manager (RPM). Enter the following command: 
    rpm --install fico-xpress-insight-worker-[version].x86_64.rpm
    Note The exact version details will be provided by your FICO representative.
  2. The worker should now be installed and running as a service called fico-xpress-insight-worker. By default, the worker will create a log file at /var/log/fico-xpress-insight-worker/insight-worker.log. To configure logging and other properties, see Configuring Xpress Insight 5 in the Xpress Insight 5 Administrator Guide.
