Required permissions
Verify that your network permissions allow you to perform the procedures in this guide, that you have logins with appropriate permissions, and that the product installation files that you download have appropriate permissions, as follows.
*
You must have the administrative login name and password for your web application server.
*
You must have administration access for all necessary databases.
*
You must have write permission for all files that you must edit.
*
You must have write permission for all directories where you must save a file, such as the installation directory and backup directory if you are upgrading.
*
The operating system account that you use to run the web application server and IBM® EMM components must have read and write access to the relevant directory and subdirectories.
*
You must have appropriate read/write/execute permissions to run the installer.
On UNIX™, the user account that performs the IBM® product installation must be a member of the same group as the user account that installed the web application server on which it will be deployed. This is because the web application server needs access to the product's file system.
*
On UNIX™, all of the installer files for IBM® products must have full execute permissions (rwxr-xr-x).
