Download and extract IXIA CCMS Scheduler files

Before you can install IXIA CCMS Scheduler, you must download and extract the installation files.

About this task

You need one instance of CCMS Scheduler per Content Store.

Procedure

  1. On the server, create a directory where the CCMS Scheduler will be installed; for example: 
    Windows: C:\Ixiasoft\Scheduler\
Linux: /opt/ixiasoft/Scheduler/
    This directory is represented by the expression %SchedulerDir%.
  2. Ensure that you have the following permissions on the directory:
    • Windows: Read and write permissions
    • Linux: Read, write, and execute permissions (750)
  3. Download and unzip the package:
    1. Go to the 7.3 area of the MadCap Software Downloads site:
      https://cms.ixiasoft.com/downloads/CCMS_7.2/
    2. Open the CCMS_Scheduler folder.
    3. Download the following files:
      • scheduler-<version>_bin.zip
      • scheduler-<version>_conf.zip
      Where <version> is the version of the CCMS Scheduler .
    4. Extract both of the zip files to the %SchedulerDir% directory so that the unzipped files are in that one folder.
    5. When the files are extracted, delete the .zip files from the directory.
