Preparing to install the Precise Framework
Before installing this version of Precise v9.6, it is important to understand the high-level Precise v9.6 architecture and plan the installation accordingly.
The Precise Framework must have a database to store performance data. This database is referred to as the PMDB. The PMDB needs to be installed and configured before the Precise v9.6 installation begins.
The PMDB can either be an Oracle database or a Microsoft SQL Server database. Critical guidelines for selecting and configuring the PMDB:
...
- The Oracle Partitioning option of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition is required and must be enabled in the database.
- If Precise v9.6 will be monitoring SQL Server and/or Sybase performance, or an ERP system that is based on SQL Server or Sybase (such as SAP), an SQL Server PMDB is needed.
- If Precise v9.6 will be monitoring Oracle and/or DB2 performance, or an ERP system that is based on Oracle or DB2, such as SAP or Oracle E-Business Suite, an Oracle PMDB is needed.
- If you will be monitoring mixed landscapes consisting of databases (SQL Server / Sybase, AND Oracle / IBM DB2) you will need to install two PMDB's one on Oracle and one on SQL Server.

Every version of the Precise v9 framework should have its own schema. It is highly recommended to dedicate a new Oracle/SQL Server instance for use as the PMDB. |
The Precise agents typically reside on the monitored servers and need to be able to communicate with the Precise Framework. Verify that the network settings (such as firewall configurations etc.) will enable that. For more information, see Communication Requirements in the Precise Minimum Requirements for Installation Guide.
Prerequisites for installing the Precise Framework
...
- All technologies and operating systems for Precise v9.6 to be installed for monitoring are supported by Precise v9.6. Information regarding the supported operating systems and technologies can be found in the Precise v9.6 Support Matrix at https://precise.secure.force.com/.
- All minimum requirements for installation are met, as per the the Precise Minimum Requirements for Installation Guide. These requirements include hardware, vendor updates, end-user client server requirements for using the Precise v9.6 user interface, communication requirements, and privileged user accounts.
- You have access to login credentials for all privileged user accounts (needed to complete the installation).
...
This version of Precise can also be installed with the CLI utility. Before installing using the CLI utility, verify that you have followed the planning and preparations mentioned above. For installing Precise with the CLI utility, see the Precise CLI Utility Reference Guide.
