3 Server Installation and Upgrade

3.1 Installing NetXMS Server on UNIX
1. Download the latest version from http://www.netxms.org/download, if you don't have it. You will need source archive (named netxms-VERSION.tar.gz, for example netxms0.2.11.tar.gz). Please note that in the following steps VERSION will be used as a substitution for an actual version number. 2. Unpack the archive: $ tar zxvf netxms-VERSION.tar.gz 3. Change directory to netxms-version and run configure script: $ cd netxms-VERSION $ sh ./configure --with-server --with-mysql --with-agent Important arguments: --prefix=DIRECTORY: installation prefix, all files go to the specified directory; --with-server: build server. Don't forget to add at least one DB Driver as well; --with-pgsql: build Postgres DB Driver (if you plan to use PostgreSQL as backend database); --with-mysql: build MySQL DB Driver (if you plan to use MySQL as backend database); --with-odbc: build ODBC DB driver (if you plan to connect to your backend database via ODBC; you will need UNIX ODBC package to do that); --with-sqlite: build SQLite DB driver (if you plan to use embedded SQLite database as backend database); --with-oracle: build Oracle DB driver (if you plan to use Oracle as backend database); --with-agent: build monitoring agent. It is strongly recommended to install agent on a server box; --with-nxhttpd: build NetXMS web server; --disable-encryption: Disable encryption support. To learn more about possible configure parameters, run it with --help option. 4. Run make and make install: $ make $ make install 5. Copy sample config files to desired locations: $ cp contrib/netxmsd.conf-dist /etc/netxmsd.conf $ cp contrib/nxagentd.conf-dist /etc/nxagentd.conf By default, both server and agent will look for configuration files in /etc directory. If you wish to place configuration files in a different location, don't forget to use c command line switch for agent and config-file command-line switch for server to specify an alternate location. 6. Create Database and User with access rights to this database. Below is an example for MySQL: $ mysql -U root -p mysql mysql> CREATE DATABASE netxms;

NetXMS Installation Guide

mysql> GRANT ALL ON netxms.* TO netxms IDENTIFIED BY 'PaSsWd'; mysql> \q Please note that database that user you have created should have rights to create new tables. 7. Modify server configuration file (default is /etc/netxmsd.conf). It should look the following way: DBDriver = /usr/local/lib/libnxddr_mysql.so DBServer = localhost DBName = netxms DBLogin = netxms DBPassword = PaSsWd LogFile = /var/log/netxmsd LogFailedSQLQueries = yes Description of configuration parameters: CodePage Server's code page. Default value depends on your system, usually ISO8859-1. You should change it if you plan to use national characters in object names, comments, etc. This parameter will have no effect if server was compiled without iconv support. DBDriver Database driver to be used. You can use one of the following drivers: libnxddr_mysql.so libnxddr_pgsql.so libnxddr_odbc.so MySQL, PostgreSQL, libnxddr_sqlite.so Driver for MySQL database. Driver for PostgreSQL database. ODBC connectivity driver (you can connect to MS SQL, and Oracle via ODBC). Driver for embedded SQLite database.

If you installed NetXMS with non-default prefix (default is /usr/local), you should change the path to database driver appropriately. DBServer DBName DBLogin DBPassword LogFile Database server to connect to (for ODBC driver, name of ODBC source). Database name (for SQLite driver, database file name). Database user name. Database user's password. Server's log file. To write a log to syslog (or Event Log on Windows), use {syslog} as file name.

LogFailedSQLQueries Controls logging of failed SQL queries. Possible values are "yes" (default) or "no". It is recommended to keep this parameter set to "yes" to simplify diagnostics of database-related problems and bugs. 8. Modify agent's configuration file (/etc/nxagentd.conf). For detailed description of possible parameters, please consult NetXMS User's Manual. For the normal server's operation, you should add at least the following line to your agent's configuration file: MasterServers = 127.0.0.1, your_server_IP_address

NetXMS Installation Guide

9. Initialise this database with nxdbmgr utility using sql-script in sql/dbinit_DBTYPE.sql. DBTYPE can be "mssql", "mysql", "pgsql", "oracle", or "sqlite". MySQL example: $ /usr/local/bin/nxdbmgr init /usr/local/share/netxms/sql/dbinit_mysql.sql 10. Run agent and server: # /usr/local/bin/nxagentd d # /usr/local/bin/netxmsd -d Now you have working NetXMS server.

Select the desired database engine and driver. For most databases, you will have two drivers available native and ODBC. Please note that if you select ODBC, you will have to manually configure ODBC source. Enter the name of database server or ODBC source. In DBA login name and DBA password fields, enter database administrators login name and password. You have to fill these fields only if you have chosen Create new database option. Enter the desired database name, database user name and password. If you are not using ODBC, the wizard will create database and a user for you. If ODBC is used, database and user should be created beforehand.

Microsoft SQL note: If you wish to use Windows authentication for database connectivity, use * (asterisk) as a login name and leave the password field blank. If you specify asterisk as DBA login, user with which you are logged in to Windows should have administrative rights to the database server. If you use asterisk as DB login, you should run NetXMS Server service as a user with appropriate rights to the database. Oracle note: We recommend to use native database driver (oracle.ddr). 8. On the next window, you will be prompted for various polling parameters (Figure 5):

Download the latest version from http://www.netxms.org/download, if you don't have it. You will need Windows Agent installer (named nxagent-VERSION.exe, for example nxagent1.0.5.exe). 2. Run NetXMS agent installer and follow the prompts. Normally, you will not need to change any settings on installation wizard dialog windows. Alternatively, you can run installer with /SILENT option to disable any prompts: C:\Download> nxagent-1.0.5.exe /SILENT

5.5 Unattended installation of NetXMS Agent on Windows

Windows Agent installer (named nxagent-VERSION.exe, for example nxagent-0.2.20.exe), has various command line options for unattended installation. These options are following: /SILENT /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /DIR=path /SERVER=address /SUBAGENT=name /NOSUBAGENT=name Don't show installation wizard, only a progress bar; Don't show anything; Don't ask user anything; Set installation directory (default is C:\NetXMS); Set address of master server (will be written to generated agent's configuration file as value for MasterServers parameter); Enable subagent name; Disable subagent name.

Valid subagent names are ECS, LOGWATCH, PING, PORTCHECK, WINPERF, WMI, and UPS. By default WINPERF is enabled and all others are disabled. For example, to install agent silently (without any messages or progress bars), use Windows Performance and UPS management subagents, and set NetXMS management server address to 10.0.0.1, run the following command (it should be on one line): C:\> nxagent-1.0.5.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /SERVER=10.0.0.1 /SUBAGENT=UPS
