Installing the Precise Framework
The Precise Framework can be installed directly from the Precise v9.6 download onto the Precise FocalPoint server. You can use the Precise CLI utility to install the following Framework components:
• Precise FocalPoint
• PMDB FocalPoint
• Alerts FocalPoint
• Report Manager FocalPoint
• Insight FocalPoint
• TPM FocalPoint
For information on manually installing the PMDB schemas, see the Precise Installation Guide.
How to install the Precise Framework
Install the Precise Framework by performing the following steps:
1. Prepare XML parameters file to specify the Framework installation parameters and log in to the server on which you have planned to install the Precise FocalPoint.
2. On this server, run the following command from the <precise_root> folder to install the CLI utility installation script:
Windows <installation_DVD>
\CLI\psin_framework_install.bat
<full_path_to_XML_parameters_file>
UNIX <installation_DVD>
/CLI/psin_framework_install.sh
<full_path_to_XML_parameters_file>
After running the script, you may be required to perform manual post-installation tasks to complete the installation.
3. If an error occurs, fix the problem and rerun the installation scripts. (In the case of an error, there is no need to delete the installation files.) If a critical error occurs before the Precise FocalPoint is installed, an error message is displayed. At the end of CLI utility installation, a message appears "Installation complete - check logs for details". The relevant logs for installation are as follows:
o <precise_root>/logs/psin_framework_install.out
o <precise_root>/logs/infra.CLI.log
If installation is successful, a message appears "Framework install setup process done".
NOTE For Windows Server which has the User Account Control enabled, you must run this command using Administrator permissions: Click Start Menu, right-click Command Prompt, click "Run as administrator", click Continue button, to approve the operation. Run the command specified above.
About the Precise Framework parameter file
You need to prepare the Framework parameter file by creating an XML file with tags that represent the installation parameters and inserting the appropriate values.
The following is an example of a server parameters file:
<parameters>
<parameter name="setup-process" value="framework"/>
<parameter name="setup-mode" value="install"/>
<parameter name="installation-cd-path" value="d:\"/>
<parameter name="i3fp-server-machine-name" value="server1"/>
<parameter name="dbms-type" value="mssql"/>
<parameter name="dbms-instance" value="DATABASE1"/>
<parameter name="dbms-database" value="PWV8"/>
<parameter name="dbms-dba-user" value="pwv8"/>
<parameter name="dbms-dba-clear-password" value="mypass"/>
<parameter name="gui-port" value="20820"/>
<parameter name="gui-shutdown-port" value="20821"/>
<parameter name="server-machine-installation-folder-server1" value="d:\precise"/>
<parameter name="server-machine-port-server1" value="20802"/>
</parameters>
The parameters file is an XML file containing a list of parameters for a Precise framework installation.

Installing Precise FocalPoints
Installing a Precise FocalPoint on a server
When using the CLI for installation, you must explicitly install the FocalPoint. This is unlike the GUI-based installation, in which FocalPoints are automatically installed with the first instance relevant. To install a Precise FocalPoint, the you should create an installation parameters file and run the Precise CLI utility installation script on the main Precise FocalPoint.
To install a Precise FocalPoint on a server
1. Build a parameter XML file to be used as input for the installation scripts.
2. Run the following command from the <precise_root> folder on the main Precise FocalPoint.
Windows infra\bin\psin_cli.bat
-i3-user <user_name>
{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}
-action setup
-parametersfile <path_to_parameters_file>
UNIX ./infra/bin/psin_cli.sh
-i3-user <user_name>
{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}
-action setup
-parametersfile <path_to_parameters_file>
About the Precise FocalPoint parameter file
You need to prepare the Precise FocalPoint parameter file by creating an XML file with tags that represent the installation parameters and inserting the appropriate values.
The following is an example of a Precise FocalPoint parameters file that installs the Oracle FocalPoint on server1:
<parameters>
<parameter name="setup-process" value="focal-OR"/>
<parameter name="setup-mode" value="install"/>
<parameter name="focal-server-machine-name" value="server1"/>
<parameter name="installation-cd-path" value="\\filesvr\Precise i3\ installation"/>
</parameters>
The following table lists the needed parameters for a Precise FocalPoint installation. The parameter format is:
<parameters>
<parameter name="..." value="..."/> ...
</parameters>

Installing Servers
The first stage in a server installation using the CLI utility requires installing and registering the server in Precise. The server is registered in the Precise database, a Precise Listener is started on the server, and communication between the Precise FocalPoint and the Precise Listener is enabled.
NOTE To promote efficiency, servers can also be installed automatically. For more information, see Auto Deployment on page 108.
Before installing a server using the CLI utility, verify the following issues:
• The Precise communication port is open in both directions (between the Precise FocalPoint server and the target server).
• CLI can handle installation packages. For more information, see Installation packages on page 8. To install the servers with the CLI utility
1. Run the following command on the main Precise FocalPoint server:
Windows infra\bin\psin_cli.bat
-i3-user <user_name>
{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}
-action list-required-files-for-new-server
-bits <new server bits (32/64)>
-os <os _type>
UNIX ./infra/bin/psin_cli.sh
-i3-user <user_name>
{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}
-action list-required-files-for-new-server
-bits <new server bits (32/64)>
-os <os_type>
The CLI creates an XML file containing the list of required installation packages for the server.
Table 2-6 Server Installation
Element Description
i3-user See Authenticate to CLI Utility on page 8.
i3-encrypted-password See Authenticate to CLI Utility on page 8.
action Always list-required-files-for-new-server
Mandatory: Yes
bits The OS bits in the new added server
Values: 32 or 64
Mandatory: Yes
os The added server OS
Values: See Operating System Type and Flavor on page 176.
Mandatory: Yes
2. On the new server create the installation folder and create new sub folder under it: distribution.
3. Copy the files specified the XML file created in Step 1 to the new server in the
<precise_root>/distribution
4. Login to the server using the Precise user
5. CD <precise_root>
Run the following command:
Windows distribution\psin_ba_WIN.exe -s
UNIX ./distribution/psin_ba_<os_type> -s
For more information, see Operating System Type and Flavor on page 176.
Note the -s argument
6. For each of the other files you've copied, run the following command:
Windows infra\bin\psin_file_new.exe -manual -extract distribution\<the_file_name> -event install
UNIX ./infra/bin/psin_file_new -manual -extract distribution/<the_file_name> -event install
7. Create an XML file containing the relevant installation parameters. Place the file in <precise_root> folder on the target server. You can also set up this file in advance.
By default, installing an non-secured local server using the CLI is not enabled. To enable a non-secured CLI server installation, set the Precise registry parameter:
registry\products\infrastructure\setup\settings\enable-local-server-cli to true, and restart Precise FocalPoint.
8. Run the following command to execute the CLI utility installation script from the <precise_root> folder on the target server:
Windows infra\bin\psin_cli.bat
-i3-user <user_name>
{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}
-action setup-server -parametersfile <server_installation_parameters_file_name>
UNIX ./infra/bin/psin_cli.sh
-i3-user <user_name>
{-i3-encrypted-password <encrypted_password> | -i3-clear-password <clear_password>}
-action setup-server
-parametersfile <server_installation_parameters_file_name>
NOTE For Windows Server 2008 (Windows Longhorn) you must run this command using Administrator permissions: Click Start Menu, right-click Command Prompt, click Run as administrator, click Continue, to approve the operation. Run the command specified above.
