Click on the Next button to step through each of the settings as described in the
following steps.
3
When prompted, use the Browse... button to select and enter the full path to the InForm
CLI executable cli.exe (if it is different from the default) then click Next.
4
When prompted, use the Browse... button to select and enter the full path to the location
where you installed Apache HTTP Server (if it is different from the default) then click Next.
5
Use the Browse... button to select and enter the installation directory for the 3PAR System
Reporting Tools sampler or accept the default directory (
C:/Program Files/3PAR/
System Reporter
) and then click Next.
6
Make sure that the desired database is selected, then click Next.
7
This step differs based on the type of database you selected.
a
If you selected SQLite for the database, you will be prompted for the installation
directory for the 3PAR Reporting Tools SQLite database. Use the Browse... button to
select and enter the directory or accept the default directory (
C:/Program Files/
3PAR/System Reporter/inservstats
) and then click Next. Since SQLite databases
are merely on local files no user name or password are required and you will skip
step 8
and be taken directly to
b
If you selected MySQL for the database you will be prompted for the MySQL server host
name and database name. Enter the host name or IP address for a remote MySQL server
or leave it as localhost for local MySQL server. Enter the database name if different
from the default database that is displayed (inservstats). Click Next.
c
If you selected Oracle for the database you will be prompted for the host string. Enter
the net service name you entered in
3.8.3.3 Creating the Oracle Net
on page 3.23 and click Next.
NOTE: If the installer detects a previous version of System Reporter, it will pop up
a window at this point. If the
compactdb
process is running, the popup will
advise you to wait for the compaction to complete and perform the upgrade
later. It will not provide an option to stop the previous installation since
terminating a
compactdb
prematurely causes problems with the database for
MySQL. If
compactdb
is not running, the popup window asks for permission to
stop the previous installation before proceeding with the new installation.
