Linux packages required:

unixODBC
libpng12
libnsl
pam
libstdc++.i686
numactl

Uncompress the package provided by IBM, and start the setup

[root@ilmtsrv01 ILMT]# ./setup-server-linux-x86_64.sh

A graphical interface will open

==> accept
==> choose ILMT and BigFix
==> set password for users : db2inst1 (DB2 instance), IEMAdmin (BigFix console), and admin (ILMT)

Now you can install the BigFix console, and also access ILMT using web browser

Now update licences:

[root@ilmtsrv01 bin]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/BESServer/bin
[root@ilmtsrv01 bin]# /opt/BESServer/bin/BESAdmin -syncmastheadandlicense -sitePvkLocation=/software/LicenseAuthorization_152291748_Create.BESLicenseAuthorization.pvk -sitePvkPassword='xxxxxxxx'
23UnknownMastheadLocation

Stop all process

/etc/init.d/LMTserver stop
/etc/init.d/besfilldb stop
/etc/init.d/besgatherdb stop
/etc/init.d/besserver stop
/etc/init.d/beswebreports stop
/etc/init.d/besclient stop

Uninstall ILMT

/opt/ibm/LMT/Uninstall/uninstall.sh

A graphical windows will appear…Next…Next

Remove BigFix packages, and suppress database
