Managing licenses

 
* 
NOTE: This section is relevant only when installing Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition or Foglight for Storage Management systems.

When you install Foglight for Storage Management, a 45-day trial license is activated.

When you install Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition, Foglight for Storage Management is also installed along with a 45-day trial license. You must activate the Foglight for Storage Management trial license.

Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition and Foglight for Storage Management are licensed separately. You can install a purchased license of Foglight for Storage Management at any time, either during the 45-day trial, or after the trial period has expired. When the trial license expires, the Foglight for Storage Management user interface is disabled. Your access to Foglight continues according to your Foglight license.

 
* 
NOTE: Foglight for Storage Management functionality requires an active, licensed Foglight installation. It cannot be accessed independently from Foglight.

If you later purchase a license, the process for installing a Foglight for Storage Management license is the same as it for installing a Management Server license. For more information, see Importing a license file after installation.

Installation modes

Installation modes

The default mode for the installer is the graphical user interface mode. On UNIX® systems, in cases where a graphics display is not available, the Foglight installer can be started in command-line mode by using the console mode or silent mode.

Console mode

For Foglight systems, the console mode is available on UNIX® only for Solaris (SPARC 64 or x86-64) and Linux®.

For Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition and Foglight for Storage Management systems, the console mode is available on UNIX only for Linux

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:

Solaris - Foglight only
Foglight-5_9_x-install_solaris-sparc64.bin -i console
Foglight-5_9_x-install_solaris-x86_64.bin -i console
Linux® - Foglight only
Foglight-5_9_x-install_linux-ia32.bin -i console
Foglight-5_9_x-install_linux-x86_64.bin -i console
Linux® - Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition only
Foglight_Virtualization-Enterprise-x_x_x-install_linux-ia32.bin -i console
Foglight_Virtualization-Enterprise-x_x_x-install_linux-x86_64.bin -i console
Linux® - Foglight for Storage Management only
FoglightStorageManagement-x_x_x-install_linux-ia32.bin -i console
FoglightStorageManagement-x_x_x-install_linux-x86_64.bin -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:
Solaris - Foglight only
Foglight-5_9_x-install_solaris-sparc64.bin -i silent
Foglight-5_9_x-install_solaris-x86_64.bin -i silent
Linux® - Foglight only
Foglight-5_9_x-install_linux-ia32.bin -i silent
Foglight-5_9_x-install_linux-x86_64.bin -i silent
Linux® - Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition only
Foglight-Virtualization-Enterprise-x_x_x-install_linux-ia32.bin -i silent
Foglight-Virtualization-Enterprise-x_x_x-install_linux-x86_64.bin -i silent
Linux® - Foglight for Storage Management only
FoglightStorageManagement-x_x_x-install_linux-ia32.bin -i silent
FoglightStorageManagement-x_x_x-install_linux-x86_64.bin -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.

 
Table 1. Properties files that the installer uses
The installer:
uses the properties file:

FoglightStorageManagement-x_x_x-install_linux-ia32.bin

FoglightStorageManagement-x_x_x-install_linux-ia32.properties

Foglight-5_9_x-install_linux-ia32.bin

Foglight-5_9_x-install_linux-ia32.properties

 
* 
NOTE: In certain configurations the Management Server uses ports in addition to the ones that you set using the silent installer; for example, when Foglight is running in High Availability (HA) mode. See the Administration and Configuration Guide for details.
 

The following table lists the properties available for configuring a silent installation, and their default values.
