About the Installable Version

The installable version of the platform lets you create and manage a private cloud behind your corporate firewall. It can also be used to set up a public cloud that serves multiple clients--generally with a shared application and global data. This page highlights changes to the installation process, along with features of the new release.

Installing and Upgrading

Ensure that Software Requirements are Met

Before starting either a First-Time Installation or a platform upgrade, ensure that dependent utilities are at the minimum levels specified in the Software Requirements.

Upgrade Notes

Changes to the Software Requirements

These software requirements have been upgraded:

• JDK 8

  Note:

  While the installation and operation of the platform requires Java 8, custom code in a Java Class continues to be validated against Java 6 syntax -- in part because the instrumentation engine responsible for monitoring resource utilization only works on version 6 byte codes.

Additional Installation Step for RedHat 6

Installations on RedHat version 6 need to ensure that the 32-bit version of the gcc library is found on the Java path. If the 64-bit version is found, and Java Code Governors are enabled, a StaticProbeInstrumenterException occurs when attempting to compile a Java class in the platform. To eliminate that problem:

1. Login as a root
2. Install the 32-bit instrumentation library:

   yum install libstdc++.i686 libstdc++.x86_64

3. Verify that it is working:
   • Go to ${TOMCAT_DIR}/bin/instrumentation/os/linux/x86 folder
   • Execute the binary: /probeinstrumenter
     You should see usage instructions for the probeinstrumenter.
