Console mode

In console mode, the install instructions are in text format, but otherwise are the same as the graphical user interface install.

To execute the console mode, type the following command:

Windows® - Foglight only
Foglight-6_0_0-install_windows-x86_64.exe -i console
Windows® - Foglight Evolve

Foglight_Evolve-x_x_x-install_windows-x86_64.exe -i console

 

Silent mode

In silent mode, a properties file is used to feed in the installation parameters. The file consists of a list of key-value pairs, which are described in the following table.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: Silent mode does not work if you set parameters in the properties file for Foglight to connect to an external database, and an existing Foglight schema is present in that database. There is no Foglight silent installer parameter for using an existing database schema in order to prevent the contents of an existing database from being lost.
If you attempt to run the silent installer using a properties file that specifies an external database where an existing Foglight schema is present, a fatal error appears in the installation logs. See Installing Foglight FAQ for more information about the error message and workarounds.
To run the installer in silent mode:
Foglight only
Foglight-6_0_0-install_windows-x86_64.exe -i silent
Foglight for Evolve only
Foglight-Evolve-x_x_x-install_windows-x86_64.exe -i silent

To use a specific properties file in silent mode, append the following option:

-f <fms_silent_install>.properties

The installer loads the specified properties file. When the file name and installer prefix are the same, the installer uses the properties automatically.

 
* 
NOTE: In certain configurations the Management Server uses ports in addition to the ones that you set using the silent installer. See the Administration and Configuration Guide for details.

Installing Foglight

The Foglight installer allows you either to install a new instance of the Foglight Management Server or to upgrade an existing installation of a Foglight Management Server. This guide provides the procedures for a new installation of the Management Server. For upgrade procedures, see the Upgrade Guide.

 
* 
NOTE: The Management Server should be installed on a dedicated machine.

Preparing to install

The requirements for installing Foglight are:

•
A machine to host the Management Server. The Management Server should run on a dedicated machine because it must process and store large volumes of data.
 
* 
NOTE: Ensure that a host name resolution and reverse lookup are confirmed prior to installing the Foglight Management Server.
NOTE: Link-local IPv6 addresses are not supported for the Management Server because many web browsers do not support link-local IPv6 addresses.
•
Administrator or root access to all machines requiring a Foglight agent.
•
An administrator password for Foglight. The user name foglight and the default password for this account can initially be used to log in to the browser interface and to use command-line interface options with administrator privileges. It is recommended that you change the default password for this account.
 
•
The TEMP environment variable is set to a location with sufficient space for installer self-extraction to meet the requirements.

The following are recommendations for installing Foglight:

•
InstallAnywhere recommends that you install as Administrator or use an account that is part of the Administrator group.
