This section describes how to install and uninstall the SIMULIA Execution Engine using Isight 2024 installer.
See the SIMULIA Established Products Installation Guide for complete information about the suite installer and assembly media, which includes Isight and the SIMULIA Execution Engine.
SIMULIA Execution Engine can be installed on either Windows or Linux
in the following modes:
Interactive Installation Mode:
In an interactive installation mode, the setup
procedure prompts
you to answer questions until the installation is
completed. You can
use any of the two interactive modes of
installation to install SIMULIA Execution Engine:
Graphical User Interface (GUI) mode
Text User Interface (TUI) mode
Even though the two methods are different, the list and the
sequence of the questions are exactly same in both the cases.
Silent Installation Mode:
You need to provide a previously generated response file to the
setup, and the installation completes without any interaction.
Text User Interface mode and Silent mode are not supported for TomEE based SIMULIA Execution Engine installations.
Root (superuser) privileges are not required to install
SIMULIA Execution Engine
on Linux. However, root permissions may be needed beforehand to grant
the installing user write access to the installation directory; for
example, in
/opt
.
Note: Installation will fail on Windows if the media unload
directory names and/or the installation path exceeds certain limits,
because of the overall limit of 260 characters imposed by Windows.
During installation or unzip operations, subdirectories and files
will be created in the specified directories. The longest full
pathname length must be limited to well within the 260 characters
limit. Therefore, both unload and installation paths should be kept
reasonably short to guarantee that this limit is not reached
Important:
After installation of SIMULIA Execution Engine,
make sure that the following field must be specified in acs.properties file and pointing
to a directory otherwise the SIMULIA Execution Engine will not start.
