Chapter 4. Downloading and Installing the Product
4.1. Prerequisites
- Red Hat Customer Portal Account
- Adequate minimum system resources
- Administrative Security privileges for your chosen installation directory
- JAVA_HOME and PATH have been set in the Environment properties (for shortcuts to work on Microsoft Windows servers.)
- Java Developer Kit 7 or 8. (Note that if you intend to access Red Hat JBoss Data Grid 7.1, Red Hat JDV must be running JDK 1.8.)
- Java Virtual Machine. You can use the JVM installed with your JDK or an alternative such as OpenJDK.
4.2. Download JBoss Data Virtualization Installer
- Go to https://access.redhat.com/
- Click Log in and enter your Red Hat Login and Password to access the Customer Portal. You will need to register for an account if you do not yet have one.
- Click Downloads ⇒ Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization.
- Click Download (next to the Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization [Version] Installer) option.
- Save the file.
4.3. Install JBoss Data Virtualization
Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization is installed using a graphical wizard. The following instructions will guide you step-by-step through this graphical installer. In this example, we will be using default options to install the standalone version. The purpose of this Guide is to teach you how to install the product in a development or testing environment.
- Open a command line window and navigate to the directory in which the GUI installer was downloaded.
Enter the following command to launch the GUI installer:
java -jar jboss-dv-VERSION-installer.jar
- A dialogue box will open followed by the End User License Agreement. If you accept the terms of the agreement, click I accept the terms of this license agreement and then click Next.
- Tell Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization where Red Hat JBoss EAP is installed on your server or specify a new location if you do not have it installed as it comes bundled with the product. (If you have a pre-existing installation of Red Hat JBoss EAP, ensure that it is patched to the latest version of 6.4.x.) Click Next.
- Ensure Teiid Installation and Dashboard Builder are selected. Click Data Services Builder if you want the graphical design tool as well or Modeshape Installation if you want that (you cannot have both Data Services Builder and Modeshape). Click Next.
You will be prompted to create a new EAP Admin, Dashboard Admin, Teiid data access user, and Modeshape user (if Modeshape is selected). You will also be asked if you want to enable OData access and a logging role. Once created, these are added to the AdminRealm and can be used to access the Management Console and other applications secured using ManagementRealm. Enter the new username and password in the appropriate fields and click Next.
ImportantEnsure that you remember all of these passwords. They give you access to different parts of the system. The EAP account and password allows you to administer the EAP Server, the Dashboard password is for administrative functions related to the web interface, and the Teiid data access user and ModeShape user are for standard user access.
NoteThe username and password are not allowed to match and the password must have at least eight characters, with one alphabetical character, one numeric character, and one non-alpha-numeric character.
- Select Perform default configuration. The database logging configuration is the only option selected by default. Click Next.
The Configure password vault screen appears. Input your desired password, which must have no fewer than six characters. Click Next.
NoteThe H2 database (used as the default for the Vault) is not suitable for production databases. Use it in testing and evaluation environments only.
- If you selected the Data Services Builder option, you will be prompted for SSL security information. Click "Generate new keystore." Leave the SSL Keystore alias as "jboss". Input a password of six characters. Leave the filepath as the default. Click Next.
- A summary of the installation is displayed. Click Next for the installation to commence. This may take a few moments. Once all the components are installed, click Next again.
- Click Generate an installation script and properties file if you wish to generate a script for automatic future installations. This script allows you to quickly reinstall or mass-deploy the product using the settings you have configured during the initial installation, without having to step through the wizard each time.
- Make a note of the URLs of the Administration Console and the Data Virtualization Dashboard and click Done to exit the installer.
Note that, after installing Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization, if you move the product to another location, you may see some FileNotFound exceptions. This is because some filepaths are hard-coded by the JBoss EAP Server.
If you attempt to use a vault with a keystore created with a different JDK than the one in which the data is stored, your server will fail to start. You must consistently use the same JDK when accessing the vault.
