Installing Precise for J2EE with the Precise CLI utility

Installing J2EE Tier Collectors on a server enables you to sample a J2EE instance on the server. Before installing a J2EE Tier Collector with the Precise CLI utility, verify the following issues:

•    The Precise Listener has been installed on the server where Precise for J2EE agent is to be installed. To install Precise for J2EE with the Precise CLI utility

1.    Create the Precise for J2EE parameter file and save it to the <precise_root> folder on the main Precise FocalPoint. You can also set up this file in advance. See About the Precise for J2EE parameter file on page 34.

2.    Run the following command from the <precise_root> folder on the main Precise FocalPoint to execute the Precise CLI utility installation script.

Windows    infra\bin\psin_cli.bat

-i3-user <user_name>

{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}

-action setup

-parametersfile <precise_for_j2ee_installation_parameters_file_name>

UNIX    ./infra/bin/psin_cli.sh

-i3-user <user_name>

{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}

About the Precise for J2EE parameter file

You need to prepare the Precise for J2EE parameter file by creating an XML file with elements that represent the installation parameters and inserting the appropriate values.

The following is an example of a Precise for J2EE parameters file:

<parameters>

<parameter name="setup-process" value="apptier-JE"/>

<parameter name="setup-mode" value="install"/>

<parameter name="instance-identifier" value="J2EE-Application"/>

<parameter name="collector-server-machine-name" value="sun3"/>

<parameter name="j2ee-java-home" value="" />

<parameter name="is-cluster" value="false"/>

<parameter name="installation-cd-path" value="d:\"/>

</parameters>

The following table describes the updated elements of the parameter file.
