IntroductionThis presentation tells you how to do a full “2-
machine” install of the trial version of SQL Maestro, where all of the components are either on a Netezza machine or the Windows client machine.
Updates, which are much less complicated than the full install, are available from time to time.
Production installations will probably want to have a “3-machine” install, where some components are installed on a Linux machine. If you need to do a 3-machine install, please contact

PrerequisitesA client machine running Windows 7,
with administrator rights.A Netezza machine or NZ simulator, and
ability to log in as user nz and admin.Hackertude! We assume some facility
with installing Windows apps and running scripts in Windows, Linux, and SQL command-line environments. If any of that frightens you then, well, prepare to be frightened.

Initial Steps Download and unzip the full SQL Maestro installer
on the Windows machine. (We’ll assume that you download it to your Downloads folder.)
Download the files “Registering functions for sqlmaestro” and “all_udx.tar.gz”. all_udx.tar.gz should be placed in a convenient directory on the Netezza machine, such as /tmp.
Uninstall SQL Maestro if it is already installed. Uninstall PostgreSQL and associated data
directories if necessary.** This guide assumes that either none of the SQL Maestro components are
currently installed, or if they are installed, that they can be removed and
replaced.

Things to knowSome antivirus programs try to prevent the
installation of SQL Maestro. If so, disconnect the Windows machine from the network and suspend the antivirus program until the Windows part of the SQL Maestro installation is complete.
If you don’t have .NET Framework 4.5 or later installed, the install program will quit and tell you to install it.
Install steps that are waiting for input may not have focus. A shield logo in the task bar indicates a step waiting for you to do something.

Things to knowThe install has two main parts – a normal
windows installer with a name like C:\Users\david\Downloads\maestro_designer_full\setup.exe and a .bat file with a name like C:\Users\david\Downloads\maestro_designer_full\install.bat which in turn calls other installers for tools, databases, and so on.

Run setup.exeRun setup.exe as administrator.
Follow the directions in the install wizard.

Run install64.bat Run install64.bat as administrator.

You’ll see a cmd window like this one.

install64.bat will check for the existence of tools and applications that SQL Maestro needs, and call their install programs if necessary.
A “typical” install for Netezza Administration Tools is fine.

Next, the script will check for the Netezza ODBC driver, and install it if necessary.

There is one non-obvious question in the Netezza ODBC driver install: the bit size. The answer is that you want both.

Next, the .bat script installs ODBC drivers for plsql. Accept all the default choices.
The script then pauses to warn you that if you have data in a PostgreSQL 9.2 data directory, it will be deleted, and also asks you to uninstall previous PostgreSQL versions. You need to press a key in the cmd window to continue.

The script then installs PostgreSQL 9.2. You’ll need to supply a password; for the rest, the obvious or default choices are OK.
You can cancel out of the Stack Builder install, and you can cancel out of the SQL Server Native Client setup unless you know you will be using it. SQL Server is not used in the first two tutorials.

That completes the client install. There are a couple of things that need to be set
up on the Netezza Machine if nobody has done them yet.
After installing PostgreSQL 9.2 the installer will create a user named abc_developer, with password ‘welcome123’, and a database called iqa_abc. You can change the password using PostgreSQL tools.

Netezza machine setupAt the nzsql prompt, as user admin, create the
user MAESTRO. Create a database named SQLMAESTRO, owned
by MAESTRO.The commands below may be helpful:
(as admin)
create database sqlmaestro;
create user maestro with password 'welcome123';
alter database sqlmaestro owner to maestro;

Netezza machine setupFollow the directions in “Registering functions for
sqlmaestro.docx”That’s it! You can now proceed to the SQL
Maestro Hello World Program tutorial.
