CA Identity Manager Upgrade Guides › WebLogic Version › Upgrade Prerequisites › How to Meet Prerequisites for the Upgrade › Linux Requirements

Linux Requirements

These requirements exist on a Linux system. If you have registered your Red Hat installation, we recommend that you use yum to install the packages. Otherwise, you can use rpm to install the packages.

Alternatively, use Add/Remove Software to resolve the dependencies, and unchecking the Only Native Packages filter option.  Using this approach, you select and install the required i686 architecture dependencies.

Note: The i686 suffix specifies that the library is 32-bit, for the x86 processor.

Linux and FIPS

On a Linux system with FIPS enabled, ensure that sufficient entropy is available. CA Identity Manager requires random data from /dev/random to perform essential cryptographic functions. If data in /dev/random is exhausted, CA Identity Manager processes must wait for random data to be available. This waiting results in poor performance. Use rngd and rng-tools to ensure that /dev/random has sufficient data and reading processes are not blocked.
