Caché Installation Guide - InterSystems Documentation

Installing Caché on UNIX and Linux
Use the ccontrol command to start and stop Caché. It is described in greater detail in the Controlling
Caché Instances section of the Caché System Administration Guide.
Note:
If the permissions on all elements of the path to the mgr subdirectory do not provide read
access to the cacheusr group (at a minimum), the instance fails to fully start and the following
message is recorded in cconsole.log: Element of path manager_subdirectory
could not be read (errno 2).
Once Caché is started, initiate a Caché session using the csession command:
csession [parameters]
Where instname is the instance name that you chose during the installation.
For more information, see the “Using Caché on UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X” chapter of the Caché
System Administration Guide.
4.6.2 Install Caché Client on Windows for Development
Caché installs a private Apache Web server so that you can access the System Management Portal;
therefore, a UNIX-based system does not require a Caché client on a Windows machine to perform
system configuration and management tasks.
You do, however, require a Windows client to use the Studio development tool. The procedure is
described in the “Installing Caché on Windows” chapter of this guide. You can install the client-only
option. Once installed, from the Caché Cube of the Windows client, perform the following tasks:
• Point to Preferred Server and click Add/Edit to add a remote server connection to the Caché instance
just installed. Make sure you specify the appropriate port numbers for this connection.
• Point to Remote System Access, point to Terminal, and then click the appropriate connection server
name you entered in the previous step.
4.7 Special Considerations
The following sections describe particular issues or tasks associated with specific platforms or kinds
of installations:
• Using DDP with Caché on UNIX
• Journal File System Recommendations
• Multiple Caché Instances
• Uninstall Caché
