Install Advanced Message Security on Solaris

We can install Advanced Message Security component on Solaris platforms.

Procedure

1. Log on as root.
2. If this installation is not the first installation on the system, you must run crtmqpkg to create a unique set of packages to install on the system:
   1. Enter the following command:

      ./crtmqpkg suffix
      

      where suffix is a name of your choosing, that will uniquely identify the installation packages on the system. suffix is not the same as an installation name, although the names can be identical. suffix is limited to 16 characters in the ranges A-Z, a-z, and 0-9.
   2. Set your current directory to the location specified when the crtmqpkg command completes. This directory is a sub-directory of /var/spool, in which the unique set of packages is created. The packages have the suffix value contained within the filename.
3. Start the installation process:
   • If the installation is the first installation on the system, enter the following command to start the installation process:

     pkgadd -d.
     

   • If the installation is not the first installation on the system, enter the following command to start the installation process:

     pkgadd mqm- suffix
     

     where suffix is the suffix chosen in the previous step.
4. You are prompted to choose a location for installation.
   • To install to the default location, /opt/mqm, enter y.
   • To install to a non-default directory, enter n. Then enter the required installation path, and confirm your choice.
5. Choose the mqams component.
6. If the path chosen in step 4 does not exist, you are asked if you want to create it. You must enter y to proceed.
7. A message is issued when the installation is complete. Enter q to exit the pkgadd program.
