Encryption Support With CIS 4.6, Composite provides a Strong Encryption Pack version of CIS for customers who want to use strong encryption algorithms when using SSL. This version includes three procedures that require WSS4J (EncryptElement, ProcessSecurityHeader, and SignElement).



Note Prior to CIS 4.6, all versions of CIS provided strong encryption by default. However, due to new export restrictions, it was necessary to make strong encryption a separate option that you must install if this is a requirement for your implementation.

To obtain the Strong Encryption Pack, contact Composite Technical Support.

32-Bit and 64-Bit Support As of CIS 4.6, both 32-bit and 64-bit operation are supported. Separate 32-bit and 64-bit installers are provided for each of the Windows and UNIX platforms. In addition, separate JRE versions are provided for each platform (see “JRE Support” on page 11).

Notes

32-bit installers are only supported on 32-bit platforms. Although 32-bit installers might work on 64-bit platforms, they are not officially supported.

Disk Space and Physical Memory Chapter 1 Pre-Installation Considerations

Disk Space and Physical MemoryCIS performance is a direct result of processor speeds, available memory, network bandwidth, data source response times, query join types, view complexities, and many other implementation factors.

Logically, the fastest response times, supporting the largest active user base and largest load bearing limits are achieved with the fastest dual-core CPUs, large amounts of highly available RAM (up to 2+ GB for most CIS production instances), ample disk space, and GB Ethernet network connections on the same subnet as the most heavily trafficked data source. For most development tasks, CIS will function equally well, although more slowly, given less than optimal hardware configurations.

The following sections describe the minimum requirements for disk space and memory.

Minimum Disk Space Needed500MB for Composite installation

300MB for Composite repository database

500MB for cache (recommended only; not required for completing the installation)

Physical Memory Requirements200 MB for design and development

700 MB for deployment

Note that the physical memory requirements noted here are exclusively for running Composite and do not include the memory you might need to run non-Composite applications.

Upgrading from a Previous CIS Release Chapter 1 Pre-Installation Considerations

Upgrading from a Previous CIS Release This section is a guide to upgrading the Composite Information Server (CIS) from a previous release. Upgrading CIS refers to steps taken to install a new version of CIS and migrating an existing metadata repository to the new instance. This process is different from many other software vendors' upgrade procedures, which typically modify the existing instance.

On a high level, the upgrade process entails installing a new server in parallel to the existing CIS instance, exporting the metadata from the old server, and then importing the Composite Server backup .CAR file into the new CIS instance.

When you upgrade to a new version of CIS, you can keep the older CIS version up and running in parallel on the same server as the new installation. In fact, Composite recommends that you keep the older version until you are sure the new installation is stable. Keep in mind that:

If you are running two versions of CIS simultaneously, their port numbers must be different.

If you are using Composite Active Cluster, all servers in the cluster must be running the same version and patch level.

As CIS uses an external database as its metadata repository, multiple CIS instances can share the same metadata repository database server. Therefore, by creating a new schema for the newly installed instance in the same repository, the upgraded instance of the server can share the same repository as the old instance.

Basic Steps for Upgrade and MigrationThe basic steps to upgrading and migration are:

1. Catalog the existing CIS instance.

2. Export the metadata from the existing CIS instance.

3. Install the new version of CIS.

4. Import the metadata into the new CIS instance.

5. Test the new CIS instance.



Each of these steps are described in the following sections. Note that these steps are performed by a user with administrator privileges.

Document the Existing CIS Instance Before making a backup of the existing CIS instance, document the key features of the instance. These settings will be applied to the newly installed version to ensure the consistency of the results returned from published resources. Some of the settings to be tracked are:

Ports

Make note of the port numbers for the existing instance. This is important because once the installation of the new server is complete, the port numbers of the new instance might need to be changed.

Authentication mechanism

This setting determines various authentication mechanisms enabled within Composite Server. Make note of the authentication mechanism. If LDAP or another dynamic authentication is used, the same settings need to be applied to the new server.

Users/groups

Note the groups created in Composite Server and the users that belong to these groups. If LDAP authentication is used, note the LDAP groups that were imported into Composite Server.

Metadata repository

Make note of the full path of the repository location and the administrator userid and password.

Custom data sources

Check and catalog any custom data sources that were introspected and if any custom drivers were used to introspect these sources.

External libraries

Make note of any external libraries that were references from the instance.



Customized settings (JRE flags, managed/unmanaged memory, etc.)

Make note of configuration settings for the existing Composite Server from Administration menu. These settings should match the new instance to ensure similar results and performance.

Compatibility of database schemas

Check if the upgrade of the existing CIS version can be performed directly to the new version. Otherwise multiple versions of CIS and multiple export and import processes might be required.

Export Metadata from Existing CIS Instance The first step for upgrade or migration is to export the existing metadata information from the repository. This process writes out a compressed XML file (.CAR) file which comprises of six files containing metadata, scheduling, settings and user information.

To run the export, you use the backup_export command. This command is located in and can be run from <install_directory>\bin directory. You must be an administrator to run this command.



The syntax for backup_export (in Windows) is as follows:backup_export.bat

-server <hostname> [-port <port>] -pkgfile <filename> -user <username> -password <password> [-domain <domain>]

where:

See the “backup_export and backup_import” section in the Utilities chapter of the CIS Administrator Guide for the complete syntax of the backup_export command and additional notes about its usage.

Install the New Version of CIS Follow these basic steps to install a new Composite Information Server when you are upgrading from an earlier release:

1. Determine the repository configuration:1.1 Check if the repository configuration might change. For instance, you might:

move from one repository platform to another.

move from a shared repository to a unique repository per instance.

move from a unique repository per instance to a shared repository.

<hostname> name of the machine hosting the server

<port> service port for CIS (the same port used for Composite Studio login)

<filename> name of the output file to store the export

<username> login name of the user doing the export

<password> password associated with username

<domain> domain to which the username belongs



1.2 Configure the repository if it’s not MySQL.

2. Install the new version of Composite Server as described in Chapter 1 (for a regular installation) or Chapter 2 (for a silent mode installation.)

3. Set up any external libraries, including JDBC drivers, and then shut down and restart the server.

4. Deliver the upgraded drivers (the Composite ODBC driver and the Composite JDBC driver) to the dependent clients.

Note that in order to ensure consistence in results and performance, the configuration of the new server instance should be as similar to old instance as possible.

Import Metadata into the New CIS Instance Once the new CIS instance is successfully installed, the metadata from old CIS instance needs to be imported into the new instance.

To run the import, you use the backup_import command. This command is located in and can be run from <install_directory>\bin directory. You must be an administrator to run this command.

The syntax for backup_import (in Windows) is as follows:backup_import

-server <hostname> [-port <port> ] [-relocate <old path> <new path> ] -pkgfile <filename> -user <username> -password <password> [-domain <domain>] [-printinfo] [-optfile <filename>] [-verbose]



where:

See the “backup_export and backup_import” section in the Utilities chapter of the CIS Administrator Guide for the complete syntax of the backup_import command and additional notes about its usage.

Once the import is successfully completed, settings such JRE configurations, managed memory setting and /or ports may need to be updated on the new instance.

Test the New CIS Instance Determine a set of tests that will touch all published resources and all introspected data sources, and then apply the tests against:

The existing instance as a sanity check.

The new instance of CIS and ensure the same results are produced.

Starting with CIS 4.0, an end-to-end testing program referred to as PubTest (pubtest.java) is included with the CIS installation. This program is located in

<hostname name of the machine hosting the server

<port> service port for CIS (the same port used for Composite Studio login)

<old path> old path of the resource

<new path> new path for the resource

<filename> file to store the export file

<username> login name of the user doing the import

<password> password associated with username

<domain> domain to which the username belongs

<name> name of the package to include the export file

<printinfo> displays the description of the import file



the <install_dir>\apps\jdbc directory. A PubTest.doc file in this directory provides additional documentation about using this tool.

The PubTest program can be configured to test all published resources using JDBC, ODBC, and Web services. Additional configuration might be required to test the ODBC and Web services.


Upgrading and Access Rights Chapter 1 Pre-Installation Considerations

Upgrading and Access RightsCIS 4.5 and later releases utilize a role-based user rights and privileges system. User access to Composite tools and data resources is segmented by enterprise-defined roles and group membership. More granular control of administrative rights is provided. It is also possible to deny users access to CIS tools. Nearly all tool functions and APIs are affected by this feature.

In releases prior to 4.5:

The "admin" group in the “composite” domain had all rights. Members of this group had full power over the Composite Server.

The "composite/anonymous" user and all users in the "dynamic" domain had no rights—not even ACCESS_TOOLS.

All other users in the "composite" domain or in any LDAP defined domains had only the ACCESS_TOOLS right.

To preserve this behavior during upgrade, all users (other than "anonymous") imported in the "composite" domain from a release prior to 4.5 are granted ACCESS_TOOLS right. All groups imported in LDAP domains are granted ACCESS_TOOLS right.


Pre-Installation Check List Chapter 1 Pre-Installation Considerations

Pre-Installation Check ListBe sure to read the Release Notes for this version of CIS. In addition, review the following notes:

You must have enough disk space and physical memory for the installation. See “Disk Space and Physical Memory” on page 12.

You must have administrative privileges to install Composite Information Server (CIS).

You can have multiple JVMs running on the installation machine.

Composite Server requires a block of nine ports for use by CIS and associated services. By default, ports 9400 through 9408 are utilized. The port setting for the Web services HTTP communication serves as the “base port” from which all other port settings are derived. By default, the HTTP port for Web services is set to 9400, but that can be changed by CIS configuration setting if required after installation.

To see the current base port setting in Composite Studio, choose Configuration from the Administration menu, then go to Composite Server > Web Services Interface > Communications > HTTP > Port (Current).

Caution Changes to the HTTP (base port) will impact all other port settings.

These additional ports are derived from the base port:base port +1 = JDBC and ODBC base port +2 = HTTP SSL base port +3 = JDBC SSL base port +4 = Reservedbase port +5 = Reservedbase port +6 = Monitor base port +7 = Reservedbase port +8 = Default for Repository

Review the following section if you are installing on a Linux operating system.


Pre-Installation Task on Linux Chapter 1 Pre-Installation Considerations

Pre-Installation Task on LinuxThis section applies only to the Linux operating system.

Run the following command to determine if localhost can be resolved on the target installation machine before attempting an installation:

ping localhost

Ping differences are given in bold type in the following examples:

Example 1This machine that resolves localhost correctly:

$ ping localhost

PING localhost (127.0.0.1) from 127.0.0.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.

64 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.071 ms



--- localhost ping statistics ---

3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% loss, time 1999ms

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.043/0.059/0.071/0.011 ms

Example 2This machine that cannot resolve localhost correctly:

$ ping localhost

PING localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) from 127.0.0.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.

64 bytes from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.080 ms



--- localhost.localdomain ping statistics ---

3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% loss, time 1998ms



rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.044/0.065/0.080/0.015 ms

Entries in the /etc/hosts FileEntry in the /etc/hosts file for Example 1 can be as follows:

127.0.0.1 localhost

IP hostname.domain hostname

OR 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain


OR 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost


Entry in the /etc/hosts file for Example 2 can be as follows:127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain


OR 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost


If the ping test output looks similar to Example 2, you must add a localhost entry directly after the 127.0.0.1 entry.

127.0.0.1 localhost <optional host name>

Note that the examples of /etc/hosts files for Example 2 illustrate cases where Composite Server will not be able to connect to the MySQL database because of the localhost.localdomain entry preceding the localhost entry (assuming the localhost entry exists at all).

Installing Composite

This chapter describes how to install Composite Information Server (CIS) and verify a successful installation.

Topics covered in this chapter include:

“Software Components for the Installation” on page 28

“Pre-Installation Steps” on page 29

“Installing Composite on Windows” on page 30

“Installing Composite on UNIX” on page 40

“Verifying a Successful Installation” on page 42

“Where to Go After a Successful Installation” on page 44


Software Components for the Installation Chapter 2 Installing Composite

Software Components for the InstallationThe following software components for Composite Information Server (CIS) are available for installation:

Composite Server

The server component of the product.

Composite Studio

The designing component of the product.

Composite JDBC driver

Composite driver that enables client applications to connect to Composite Server through JDBC.

Composite ODBC driver

Composite driver that enables client applications to connect to Composite Server through ODBC.

A MySQL repository database (MySQL 4.1.19 standard edition) is included in the installation.

Note If you have an older version of CIS, you do not need to uninstall it prior to installing this newer version. The two versions can coexist on your computer. Note that subsequent installations of CIS will reuse the mySQL database of the older installation.


Pre-Installation Steps Chapter 2 Installing Composite

Pre-Installation Steps Before installing, follow these steps:

1. Stop Composite Server if an earlier version is running.

2. Shut down all other application programs running on the installation machine.

3. Know the host name or the IP address of the installation machine.

Note If you are upgrding from a previous release, be sure to read “Upgrading from a Previous CIS Release” on page 15 for information about the overall installation and upgrade process.


Installing Composite on Windows Chapter 2 Installing Composite

Installing Composite on WindowsBefore proceeding with the installation, be sure to review “Pre-Installation Considerations” on page 7 and follow the pre-installation steps in the previous section.

To install Composite Information Server on a Windows computer

1. In your internet browser, navigate to the Composite Web site download page and log in:

www.compositesw.com/support/download

You need a valid username and password to perform a download.

2. Download the Composite software for your Windows platform and architecture.

Two individual installers (32-bit and 64-bit) are provided for Windows: install32.exe and install64.exe.

3. Run the installer executable for your platform.



The installation tool InstallAnywhere guides you through the installation of Composite. The first screen of the Composite installation program is the Introduction:

Silent Mode Installation

You can install Composite Information Server (CIS) in silent mode. A silent mode installation does not require any user input at the time of installation in order to complete the installation process. It does not have a graphical user interface (GUI) but instead uses the values from a response file to perform the installation.

Topics covered in this chapter include:

“Pre-Requisite for Silent Mode Installation” on page 46

“Sample Response File” on page 50

“Running the Installer” on page 53


Pre-Requisite for Silent Mode Installation Chapter 3 Silent Mode Installation

Running the Installer Chapter 3 Silent Mode Installation

Running the InstallerCreate the response file according to your system environment, and place it anywhere on the installation machine.

Note If you are upgrding from a previous release, be sure to read “Upgrading from a Previous CIS Release” on page 15 for information about the overall installation and upgrade process.

To run the installer

1. Run the following command from the directory where the installation executable is:On Windows:

install.exe -f <PATH>\\installer.properties

On UNIX: install.bin -f <PATH>/installer.properties

where installer.properties is the name of the response file, and <PATH> is the full path to the directory where the response file is.

Running this installer without an appropriate response file generates an error message.

Uninstalling Composite

This chapter describes the process of uninstalling Composite Information Server (CIS) for Windows and UNIX.

“Uninstalling Composite on Windows” on page 56

“Uninstalling Composite on UNIX” on page 57


Uninstalling Composite on Windows Chapter 4 Uninstalling Composite

Uninstalling Composite on WindowsYou uninstall CIS on Windows as described below. Keep these things in mind:

When you uninstall CIS, everything stored in the metadata repository is deleted along with the CIS software.

If you have installed either Composite Active Cluster or any of the Application Data Services (e.g. Data Services for Oracle, Data Services for SAP, Data Services for PeopleSoft, etc.), you must uninstall them before uninstalling CIS.

You follow essentially the same uninstall process, regardless of whether you performed a silent or interactive installation.

To uninstall CIS on Windows

1. Select Start > All Programs > Composite Software (version) > Composite Uninstall, from the Windows Program group or the location where you installed Composite.For a silent uninstall, a message is displayed indicating that the uninstall is occurring. For an interactive uninstall, go to step 2.

2. In the Uninstall CompositeSoftware(version) Introduction window, click the Next button.

3. Click Uninstall to proceed.4. Click Done when the uninstallation process is completed.


Uninstalling Composite on UNIX Chapter 4 Uninstalling Composite

Uninstalling Composite on UNIXTwo tasks are described here:

Pre-Uninstallation Task on UNIX

Uninstalling Composite On UNIX

Note You follow essentially the same uninstall process, regardless of whether you performed a silent or interactive installation.

Pre-Uninstallation Task on UNIX Before you uninstall Composite, you may remove the Composite service files from the installation machine because the uninstaller does not remove these files automatically.

To remove the Composite service files csw.repository and csw.server

1. Log into the installation machine as root.2. Change the working directory to <installation_directory>/bin.3. Run the following command:

remove_services.sh

Uninstalling Composite On UNIXDuring the uninstallation process, all the components from the previous installation will be removed. You cannot uninstall the components individually.

Note On an HP machine, the uninstaller does NOT delete the <installation_directory>, because the Java process under <installation_directory>/jre has the directory locked.


Uninstalling Composite on UNIX Chapter 4 Uninstalling Composite

To uninstall Composite on UNIX

1. Log into the installation machine as the user that installed the software.2. Run the following command:

<installation_directory>/Uninstall_CompositeSoftware<version>/Uninstall_CompositeSoftware<version>

For a silent uninstall, a message is displayed indicating that the uninstall is occurring. For an interactive uninstall, go to step 2.

3. Press the Enter key.You will see a warning about loss of data.

4. Press the Enter key to complete the uninstallation process and leave the uninstaller.
