Setting up the Rational Synergy environment

About this task

To set up the Rational Synergy environment for X applications, CCM_HOME, and PATH:

Procedure

  1. Copy the X application defaults file for Rational Synergy to the app‑defaults directory on all machines that run clients (interface processes).

    All Sun Solaris platforms using Open Windows:

                   root# cp $CCM_HOME/etc/Ccm /usr/openwin/lib/app-defaults

    All other platforms including Sun Solaris using CDE:

                   root# cp $CCM_HOME/etc/Ccm /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults

    If your environment is mixed, copy the file for both the OpenWindows and the non-OpenWindows platforms.

  2. On Sun OpenWindows only, check to see if the X11 translation table is already installed. If it is not, copy the X11 translation table.
                   root# cp $CCM_HOME/etc/XKeysymDB /usr/openwin/lib
  3. Set ccm_root and informix environment variables.

    Some Rational Synergy commands require the tsort command in the path. Check your installation to see if you need to modify the path to include tsort. For example, on Solaris tsort is in /usr/ccs/bin.

    1. Set the command path for user ccm_root.
                     $ su - ccm_root
                     Password: *****
                     $ vi .profile

      If the .profile file is not the correct file for your shell, edit the correct file (for example, .cshrc or .login).

      Add the following lines, then exit from user ccm_root.

                        CCM_HOME=ccm_home; export CCM_HOME
                        PATH=$CCM_HOME/bin:$PATH:/usr/ccs/bin; export PATH
                        exit
    2. Set the command path for user informix.
                     $ su - informix               Password:*****
                     $ vi .profile

      If the .profile file is not the correct file for your shell, edit the correct file.

      Add the following lines, then exit from user informix.

                     CCM_HOME=ccm_home; export CCM_HOME
                     PATH=$CCM_HOME/bin:$CCM_HOME/informix/bin:$PATH:/usr/ccs/bin
                     export PATH
                     $ exit
