Extracting the StreamServe setup files

Depending on the platform you run, there may be two setup files available – one with the 64-bit version of StreamServe software and another with the 32-bit version. In high-volume scenarios or scenarios where you have large input files, we recommend you use the 64-bit version because it can use more memory.

The StreamServe setup files are archived in a gzipped file.

For example:

streamserve-5.6.0.GA.999-sparc-sun-solaris2.10-64bit-release.tar.gz

To extract the setup files

1	Create a folder to extract the StreamServe files to. For example /opt/streamserve

2	Copy the gzipped file for the appropriate UNIX platform to the new directory.

3	From the StreamServe directory, extract the gzipped file using the following command:

gunzip < <StreamServe_Installation_File> | tar xf -

For example:

gunzip < streamserve-5.6.0.GA.999-sparc-sun-solaris2.10-64bit-release.tar.gz | tar xf -

The files are extracted to a new folder in the StreamServe directory called streamserve-<release_and_build_nr>. For example:

/opt/streamserve/streamserve-5.6.0.GA.999
