Oracle Coherence Monitor User Guide

Windows - Installation & Setup

Perform the following steps to download the OC Monitor package, install and setup the OC Monitor application. For UNIX steps, see UNIX/Linux - Installation & Setup.

NOTE: If you are connecting to a single Coherence cluster, using the Direct Connection data connection method, and are using the default settings, you can use the Quick Start instructions.

At This Point You Have:

• Viewed and completed the Before Installing OCM section of this document.

To install and setup the OC Monitor

1. Open the OC Monitor Download email sent to you by SL Software Distribution and do the following:

• Make a note of the TSN (a unique serial number). You need this number if you want to obtain a permanent installation license key from SL Corporation. (You can obtain a license only after installing the OC Monitor application.) Download installations come with a temporary license key.
• Select the link to the SL Corporation Software Download Site.

2. At the SL Corporation Software Download Site:

• Click Continue.
• Read and click Accept or Don't Accept the License Agreement.

3. Unzip the OC Monitor package, OCMonitor_XXXX.zip, into the directory of your choice.

NOTE: Using the Extraction Wizard on Windows systems can result in an extra directory level based on the name of  the Zip file. The additional directory is not needed because the Zip files contain a top-level directory. The additional directory can be removed before clicking the Next button that performs the final extraction.

• Optionally, you can download Apache Tomcat and unzip the apache-tomcat-6.0.18-sl.zip file to a directory of your choice.
• Optionally, you can download OC Monitor documentation and unzip the OCMonitor_docs_XXXX.zip file to a directory of your choice.

4. Open a command prompt window and type the following to verify that Java is available:

java –version

Sample output:
java version "1.6.0_17"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_17-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 14.3-b01, mixed mode)

NOTE: If the version of Java available is not 1.5+, or is not found, make a suitable version of Java available before continuing to the next step.

5.  Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the OC Monitor installation directory and double-click the batch file rtvoc_setup.bat.

A command window briefly appears and goes away unless shortcuts already exist on the desktop for the OC Monitor. If prompted, answer the Yes/No questions as desired.

6. Double-click the batch file rtvoc_cmd.bat.

        A command prompt appears.

7. Verify the environment for RTView variables (set RTV). RTVOC_HOME and RTV_HOME should be listed in the command output.

8. Verify the PATH for two additional bin directories (set PATH) that correspond to RTVOC_HOME\bin and RTV_HOME\bin.

9. Terminate the command prompt window when finished.

10. Create a Cluster Property File (which is required for the data connection). You reference the Cluster Property File in subsequent configuration steps.

To create your Cluster Property File:

Create a copy of the SampleCluster.properties file, located in the conf subdirectory of your OC Monitor installation. The name of the file should reflect the name of your existing cluster (it does not have to match the name of your cluster, but rather indicate which cluster it applies to). The filename must be alphanumeric and must not contain spaces or white-space characters.

Example: copy SampleCluster.properties to DevClusterA.properties.

Proceed to Configuring a Data Connection.
