Products

• CA Spectrum
• DX NetOps

Issue/Introduction

We do not have the ability to re-direct a GUI install display in our Linux environment. Need to know the instructions for installing the Trap Exploder without the GUI.

Environment

Release : Any

Component : Secure Domain Manager/Connector / TrapX

Resolution

Use the following instructions run a silent installation of SDC with TrapX support:

• Log into the system where you are going to install TrapX as the root user or sudo to the root user
• Copy the install media to the system where you are going to install TrapX and un-compress/un-tar the install media file
• From the directory where you un-compress/un-tar the install media file, cd to the sdmc/linux directory
• Enter the following command

 ./install.bin -i Silent -DTRAPX_ENABLE=true

This will install the TrapX in the /opt/CA/SDMConnector directory. 

If you wish to have TrapX installed in a different directory, run the following command: 

./install.bin -i Silent -DTRAPX_ENABLE=true -DUSER_INSTALL_DIR="/app/spectrum"

This will install the TrapX in the /app/spectrum directory. 

NOTE: The above instructions are for Linux. If on Windows, the install.bin will be located in the sdmc/windows directory.

Additional Information

To verify that the SDC is performing as the Trap Exploder, verify there is a file named SDC.env in the bin directory in the installation area (default is /opt/CA/SDMConnector/bin/SDC.env).

In this file, the following is needed:

IS_TRAPX=1
