HEDEX
4 Installing the HEDEX in Linux/Solaris Installation Guide
4.1 Installing the HEDEX

The server mode is adopted by default for installing the HEDEX in Linux and Solaris. After
installation, users in the LAN can access the HEDEX on a server with browsers.
Procedure
Step 1 Insert the HEDEX installation CD in the drive.
Step 2 Run the command mkdir /mnt/cdrom to create a mounting directory.
Step 3 Run the command mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom to mount the CD.
Step 4 Create a HEDEX installation directory.
For example, if /home/huawei exists in the system, run the command mkdir /home/huawei/
hedex to create a hedex subdirectory under /home/huawei.
Step 5 Decompress the installation file into the installation directory.
Run the command unzip /mnt/cdrom/hedex.zip -d {install_path} (use {install_path} to
represent the installation path in all the commands in Linux and Solaris). For example, to
decompress the installation file into /home/huawei/hedex, run unzip /mnt/cdrom/hedex.zip -
d /home/huawei/hedex.
Step 6 Modify the four files in the format of .sh under {install_path}/bin.
1. Modify hedex_start.sh.
Set the value of hedex_install_path of hedex_start.sh to the installation path.
2. Modify hedex_stop.sh.
Set the value of HEDEX_ROOT of hedex_stop.sh to {install_path}/server.
Set the value of JAVA_HOME to {install_path}/javasoft/jdk;.
3. Modify hedex_kill.sh.
Set the value of HEDEX_ROOT of hedex_kill.sh to {install_path}/server.
4. Modify hedex_monitor.sh.
Set the value of HEDEX_ROOT of hedex_monitor.sh to {install_path}/server.
Step 7 Modify setup.xml under {install_path}/conf.
l Set the value of install_path to the HEDEX installation path.
l Set the value of install_language as required. install_language determines the language
displayed on the HEDEX interface. zh indicates Chinese, and en indicates English.
l Set the value of db_url to jdbc:derby:{install_path}/database, for example, dbc:derby:/
home/huawei/hedex/database.
l Set the value of library_default_dir to {install_path}/libraries, for example, /home/
huawei/hedex/libraries.
l Set library directories of HEDEX under <library_path>. Libraries under these directories are
displayed in the HEDEX. You can set up to 10 directories. This is optional.
----End

HEDEX
Result
After the HEDEX is installed on the Linux or Solaris, users in the LAN can access the HEDEX
through http://IP address of the server:52199/hedex. For example, if the IP address of the
server is 10.71.136.179, the HEDEX address is http://10.71.136.179:52199/hedex.

Only when the HEDEX service is started on a server, you can access the HEDEX through
browsers from a LAN.
Procedure
Step 1 Add executable rights to the following files:
l All the files under {install_path}/bin
l All the files under {install_path}/javasoft/jdk/bin
l All the files under {install_path}/javasoft/jdk/jre/bin
NOTE

Fault Analysis
In the operating system (OS) of the installation server of the HEDEX, the value of the parameter
open files is too small. You need to set the value to a larger number. The value 10000 is
recommended.
Procedure
1. If the HEDEX installation server is installed with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, add the
following information to limits.conf under /etc/security/:

HEDEX
l * soft nofile 10000

l * hard nofile 10000
NOTE
If the parameter soft nofile or hard nofile already exists in limits.conf, modify the value.
If the OS is Solaris 10, add the following information to limits.conf under /etc/system/:
l set rlim_fd_max=10000
l set rlim_fd_cur=10000
2. Restart the installation server of the HEDEX.
