Prepare the Linux operating system in a clustered environment


Prepare your Linux operating system:

  1. For IBM GPFS file sharing, set the file system inodes limit to 25000 or higher.

      mmchfs /dev/gpfs1nsd -F 250000

    /dev/gpfs1nsd is the portal installation file system.

  2. For WCM, run ulimit -f to set the maximum size of file that can be created to be at least the size of the largest file you would need to upload to the content server. To get a list of all the ulimit settings.

      ulimit -a

  3. Install and configure X server on Linux (for example X-Windows or GNOME) to use the GUI the installation program provides.

    X server is not required if installing with a response file.
