Install Database Security server on a Linux platform

Download the appropriate self-extracting file for the Database Security server from the Downloads site.

Note

The installation file name specifies the version and build of the software, in the format:

trellix-dbs-server-server-jre-<version#>-<build#>.i586.rpm.bin

Log on as the root user.

To give the installer execute permission, run this command:

chmod +x trellix-dbs-server-jre-<version#>-<build#>.i586.rpm.bin

To install the server, run this command:

./trellix-dbs-server-jre-<version#>-<build#>.i586.rpm.bin

Read the license agreement, then type Accept.

After you accept the end-user license agreement, the install script creates and installs the RPM file named trellix-dbs-server-jre-<version#>-<build#>.i586.rpm

When prompted, enter the administrator password, the HTTPS listening port, and the port for sensor communications. If the administrator password is left empty, default password admin is used.

Following the server installation, the license page is automatically displayed, to install the license. If the page is not displayed, enter the address in your browser to display the license:

https://<servername>:8443/

The RPM installs the product as a service and this service can be controlled using this command:

<service installation path>/<name of the server> / <start | stop>

For example: /sbin/service mfe-dbs-server start
