UMDS Quick Start
UMDS Quick Overview

UMDS requires different types of installations for the UMDS Server and the UMDS Client.

When you install the UMDS Server and UMDS Client, the installer or installation procedure places files in an [installdir] directory.

On a Linux machine, [installdir] is typically the following:
/home/user-id/UMDS_6.12/Linux-glibc-2.5-x86_64
(the glibc version is subject to change)

For a client on a Microsoft Windows machine, [installdir] is typically the following:
C:\Program Files\Informatica\UMDS_6.12_client\Win2k-x86_64</filepath>


UMDS Server Installation  <-

You must install the UMDS Server on a Linux machine that also has UMS, UMP, or UMQ of version 6.0 or beyond.

To install the UMDS Server, perform the following procedure:

  1. Download the UMDS package, the current UMS, UMP, or UMQ version Linux package, and a UMDS license file. Contact Informatica Sales or initiate a shipping request.

  2. Install the current version of UMS, UMP, or UMQ, if not already installed.

  3. Install UMDS Server by entering the commands:

    cd [installdir]
    ./UMDS_6.12_Linux-glibc-2.17-x86_64.sh
    

    (the glibc version is subject to change)

  4. Save the UMDS license file to [installdir]. Note the path and filename for later use with the UMDS configuration file.


UMDS Client Installation  <-

You can install UMDS Clients on UNIX and/or Microsoft Windows machines. The UMDS Client does not require an Ultra Messaging UMS, UMP, or UMQ installation on the client host.

  1. For Windows UMDS clients, download the UMDS Windows client package. Contact Informatica Sales or initiate a shipping request. The UMDS package for UNIX contains both the server and Java clients.

  2. Run the UMDS client installation appropriate for your client platform. For Windows, run UMDS_6.12_client-install.exe. For UNIX, follow the server installation instructions.

  3. If you want to run the example applications, download openmdx-kernel.jar and log4j-1.2.9.jar files, or locate the same files in the UMS, UMP, or UMQ installation.
Note
The example applications install under the [installdir] in the dotnet_client/bin and java_client/bin< directories.
