Installing the InfoPrint Manager Transform Feature on a Linux server from the command line

This section describes the procedure for installing the InfoPrint Manager Transform Feature on a Linux server from the command line.
Make sure all required hardware and software is available (see System requirements for InfoPrint Manager Transform Feature for Linux for information).

    Note:
  • Follow the instructions in the E-mail sent from Ricoh to download the installation .iso file and create an installation DVD.
  • Before you install Transform Feature for LInux, SELinux (Security Enabled Linux) must be disabled.
  • Make sure that SELinux is not blocking any processes residing in any of the subdirectories of /opt/infoprint/itm.

Transform Featureis installed in trial mode. To continue using the Transform Feature after the trial period, you must purchase a license key for it.

You can either:

  • Do the steps in this section to install Transform Feature using their DVD.
  • Copy the Transform Feature installer to a staging location on your network, then mount the primary computer to that location and run the installers.

To install Transform Feature on a Linux workstation from the command line:

  1. Stop the base product.
  2. Log in to the machine as an administrator or other user with authority to install programs and open a command line.
  3. Insert the Transform feature DVD.
      Note:
    • If you are using a Red Hat Linux system, the drive might mount automatically. However, drives that are mounted automatically on those systems are set up so that you cannot run programs from the media. You must unmount the drive and mount it again with the exec option before you can continue. You can use this command:
      • mount -t iso9660 -o remount, exec <mount_point>
      You must remount the drive for every CD or DVD that you insert.
  4. To determine the name of the media mount point, enter:
    • ls /media

    On some systems where the media is mounted automatically, the name of the mount point is the same as the name of the CD or DVD.

  5. To mount the DVD drive, enter:
    • mount /media/cdrom
  6. To start the installation program, enter:
    • /media/cdrom/Linux/install_TF_IPM.sh
  7. When the installation is complete, unmount and eject the DVD.
