Update the System Profile

Important! Perform this step on the Service Desk‑UNIX server only.

To update the system profile (/etc/profile)

  1. Add the following lines to the system profile:
    SD_CL_CNCTR_HOME=<complete path name of the CMI directory>
    Add $SD_CL_CNCTR_HOME/bin to the PATH environment variable
    Export PATH, SD_CL_CNCTR_HOME
    

    For example, if you installed CMI_UNIX.tar to the /home directory, add the following lines to the system profile:

    SD_CL_CNCTR_HOME= /home/CMI
    PATH=”${PATH}”:$SD_CL_CNCTR_HOME/bin
    export PATH SD_CL_CNCTR_HOME
    
  2. If the Service Desk privileged user is running the C or Trusted C shells, make the corresponding changes to /etc/.login as well:
    setenv SD_CL_CNCTR_HOME   <complete path name of the CMI directory>
    
  3. Ensure that /etc/profile is executed. If you use su, run /etc/profile explicitly as follows:
     . /etc/profile
