65
Before You Install on a SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Host
The
gcc
program is not installed on a SLES 8 host by default. This compiler is required
by the VmPerl API.
Before you install GSX Server on a SLES 8 host system, you must install
gcc
.
Installing gcc in the Host Operating System
1. Start your X server, if it does not start by default, and log on as the root user.
2. Run
YAST2
, the default configuration utility for SLES 8.
3. Click Software in the left pane, click Install or remove software in the right pane.
4. Check C++ Compiler and Tools in the left pane, then click Accept .
5. When prompted, insert the SLES 8 CD.
6. Click Close to exit
YAST2
. The
gcc
program is installed. Now install GSX Server.
Before You Install the VMware Management Interface
on a Linux Host
If you are running GSX Server on a 32-bit Linux host, you must install the
libdb.so.3
library from your Linux distribution’s CD-ROM before you install the
VMware Management Interface. The version that comes with a default Linux
installation is incompatible with the management interface and returns the following
error when you start the management interface:
Couldn't find necessary components on your system. It
appears that you are missing the following library:
libdb.so.3.
Some Linux distributions are known to ship without these
libraries. From your Linux distribution CD, install this
RPM package: compat-db-3.3.<##>-<#>.i386.rpm, where <##>-
<#> is a version number particular to your version of the
distribution.
If your distribution CD does not have this package,
contact your vendor for a suitable library.
If you install this package after you installed the
management interface software, start the management
interface's Apache server with the following command:
/etc/init.d/httpd.vmware start
To install the correct library, run the version of the Berkeley Database
compat-db-<#>.<#>.<##>-<#>.i386.rpm
