Checking the installation environment

The IMC installation package provides a tool (envcheck) to check the system environment and database connectivity.

To use the envcheck tool:

1. Copy the envcheck tool (envcheck.bat for Windows or envcheck.sh for Linux) from the tools folder to the install folder of the IMC installation package.

2. Run the tool.

   The Checking installation environments dialog box opens.

   The system checks the port availability, free physical memory, and legacy database server or client.

   After the checks are complete, the Checking installation parameters dialog box opens, as shown in Figure 1. The following information uses Windows and Microsoft SQL Server as an example.
