ECC 6.1 install - setup flag switches

I am doing a test rollout of ECC 6.1. Just want to go through the motion of installing 6.1 into a new enviroment (well almost new). We currently have 6.0 depolyed and are facing issues with the FCC agent and discovering the FC switches. Anyways to make a long story short, this issue will be addressed in 6.1 due to some updated communication abilities between ECC (FCC) and our EFCM application without use the EMCfibrechannel bridge. I have not decided to do a upgrade or a new install (swinging towards a new install so we have a clean database to work with)

Anyways. i have created a few vmware servers for TESTING ONLY to run through the 6.1 install/configuration, and maybe database upgrade tests. These VMware servers do NOT meet the specs and do not pass those ECC 6.1 install checks. I do not have access to machines right now that would pass all these checks that ECC 6.1 install does. For the real ECC deployment i will have real servers.

I need to find out the command line switches i could use to bypass these checks for my test purposes.

Seamus, i was unable to perform the 6.1 install on the vmware nodes as i discribed above. I do not have access to the ESX server to complete this.

I have opened case 28445538 in hopes we can obtain a modified install script to address this test (POC) deployment of mine.

Thanks

Hi Joseph,

The setup flag switches are embedded in the install script. It might be possible for Eng to give you a test setup.inx so that you could bypass any issue you encounter during the pre-req checks.

Please note that this would not be officially supported by EMC. However, as it's only a test environment then I'm guessing this shouldn't concern you...

If you do want to proceed with this then it's probably best that you open a SR and mark it for my attention. Let me know the SR #.


Thanks,

Would be a good fall back plan. Right now i am going to disable terminal services and attempt to console to the vmware server to see if this way works. I will update this thread with the outcome.

thanks

Joe
