This section describes the steps necessary to install PVM.

1.Insert DVD into DVD drive.

2.Open a command shell and go to the DVD drive root (login as root). Ex: cd /dev/cdrom

3.Start the installation:

$./installpvm

Follow the prompts and change the install directories if necessary.

$su – pvmadm $pvm start

Note:

1.The license file needs to be obtained from the Cisco support web site. Contact your Cisco representative for details on how to obtain the license.

2.Cisco PVM supports secure access only to the GUI. You have to install either a self-generated SSL certificate or a SSL certificate issued by a Certifying Authority to access the Cisco PVM GUI. If you are installing a certificate issued by a certifying Authority, follow the procedure specified by the issuer and install the certificate at $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/conf/ssl.keystore. If you are generating your own certificate, you can use the java keytool as follows:

cd <PVM_INSTALL_DIR>/j2sdk142/bin

keytool –genkey –keyalg RSA –storepass changeit –keystore $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/conf/ssl.keystore Follow the prompts and finally when it asks for the keystore password, answer it as ‘changeit’.

3.If you want to use a password other than ‘changeit’ for the keystore, make the following configuration changes to JBOSS configuration

file located at $PVM_BASE/jboss/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat41.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml	Change the
keystorePass parameter in the SSL Connector entry for port 8443 to the password you entered for the keystore.
