Step 2
To determine the file system block size, use the
df
command. For example:
# df -g /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s4
Example output from the
df
command is as follows:
/var
(/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s4 ):
8192 block size
1024 frag size
961240 total blocks
851210 free blocks
755086 available
243712 total files
239730 free files
35651588 filesys id
ufs fstype
0x00000004 flag
255 filename length
In this example, the block size is 8192 bytes, which is 8 KB. The block size of the selected directory,
therefore, is correct.
Large File Support
Ensure that the file system in which you place database files is configured to support files above 2 GB.
To verify large file support:
Step 1
Run the UNIX
mount
command without parameters.
Step 2
Note whether the intended file system contains the keyword
largefiles
.
An example output of the
mount
command is:
/var on /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s4 read/write/setuid/intr/largefiles/onerror=panic/dev=2200004 on
Mon Nov 26 08:07:53
In this example, the output contains the keyword
largefiles
. This file system, therefore, can support files
greater that than 2 GB.
Installation Checklist
Before you run the installation software, use this checklist to ensure that you are ready:
•
Verify the prerequisite system hardware and software requirements described in
Chapter 1,
“Overview”
•
Determine the home directory (<BACC_HOME>) in which you want to install the BACC
component or components. The default directory is /opt/CSCObpr.
Note
Cisco Systems recommends that yo have at least 350 MB of disk space available.
•
Ensure that you have
root
access to the computers where you intend to install BACC components.
•
Have your BACC license key or keys at hand. You need a valid license key for each technology that
you want to provision with BACC.
•
For the RDU, determine where you want to install the data directory (<BACC_DATA>) and the
database transaction logs (<BACC_DBLOG>). (The default directory is /var/CSCObpr.)
