Automated Installation of the Xpress Insight Server on RHEL

If required you can automate the installation of Xpress Insight Server by specifying command-line options.

To get a list of the available options run: ./install.sh -h

You can specify as many of the options as you like, if there are any required options missing you will be prompted for these with interactive prompts. If you require the installation to be fully automated make sure you supply all the necessary options so that the interactive prompts do not appear. You will also need to make sure all prerequisites are installed on the system before running the installer.

Example - Fully Automated Xpress Insight Server Installation on Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Here is an example of a fully automated installation assuming you are in a directory containing the Xpress Insight Server tar archive and a valid xpauth.xpr license file:

tar xf xpress-insight-server-4.54-linuxrhel6_x86_64_setup.tar
pushd xpress-insight-server-4.54-linuxrhel6_x86_64_setup
./install.sh –y –d /opt/xpressmp –a .. –j /etc/alternatives/jre_11 -B
popd
This will:
  • Install Xpress Insight Server in /opt/xpressmp.
  • Use the license file in the parent directory.
  • Use the system default Java 11 installation.
  • Skip backup of any existing database.
