Prepare Linux for CA Business Intelligence Installation

Before you install CA Business Intelligence on Linux, you must prepare the computer. When you prepare the computer, you create a non-root user for the CA Business Intelligence installation and set the environment variables.

Note: Verify that the Linux version you use is supported by CA Business Intelligence.

  1. Create a non-root user. The CA Business Intelligence installation requires a non-root user.

    For example, enter the following commands to create a user named bouser and set the password:

    useradd -d /home/bouser -m -s /bin/bash -c bouser bouser
passwd bouser
  2. Verify that the LANG environment variable is configured as follows:
