The final step in the Platform Container installation must be executed as the mzadmin UNIX user. The following command session sets up the directory structure and installs all the software. The release content directory is the working directory for the installation.

To install the software:

  1. Enter the release content directory:

    $ cd ./<staging directory>/<release content directory>
     

  2. Execute the installation:

    $ ./setup.sh install

    Hint!

    The setup script verifies that the target file system has at least 5GB of free space. If the validation fails you are prompted to continue or not. Choosing not to continue aborts the installation. You can disable this validation by adding a flag to the setup script.

    $ ./setup.sh install -DsilentMode=y

    The Platform is automatically started and shut down during the installation.

    Note!

     If the Platform fails to start, check the platform.log file in $MZ_HOME/log for details.

  3. Start the Platform:

    $ mzsh startup platform   

  4. Start the Desktop pico:
    $ mzsh startup ui   

The installation of the Platform Container is now complete.
