Install Portal for ArcGIS silently on Linux

1. Before beginning the installation, read the license agreement located at <CD_ROOT or untar directory>/Documentation/EULA.pdf and accept the terms.
2. Run the setup silently at the prompt. See sample syntax below:

   <CD_ROOT or untar directory>/Setup -m silent -l yes -a <full path to authorization file>

   Usage: Setup [Options]

   Option	Description
   -m; --mode MODE	Optional. Defaults to GUI. MODE is one of the following: silent, console, or gui.
   -l; --license-agreement CHOICE	Required for silent mode. CHOICE can be Yes or No. Yes indicates that you have read and agreed to the Esri Master Agreement (E204, E300). Please visit http://www.esri.com/legal/licensing-translations to read the agreement.
   -a; --authorization-file FULL_PATH_TO_AUTHORIZATION_FILE	Optional. If this option is not used, you will need to authorize the software after installation. FULL_PATH_TO_AUTHORIZATION_FILE is the full, absolute path to an .ecp or .prvc file provided by Esri. FULL_PATH_TO_AUTHORIZATION_FILE examples: --authorization-file /home/user/ArcGIS_Portal.ecp -a /data/auth_files/ArcGIS_Portal.prvc
   -d; --directory DIRECTORY	Optional. By default, Portal for ArcGIS is installed in the user's $HOME directory. DIRECTORY specifies a different installation directory. The path /arcgis/portal is appended to the installation directory. If you're pointing the setup to a previous installation directory, the content in that directory is automatically used in the new installation. Content from installations prior to version 10.2 are not supported.
   -v; --verbose	Installer runs in verbose mode.
   -h; --help	Displays command line help and exits.
   -e; --examples	Displays usage examples of these options and exits.

Post-installation configuration

If you want Portal for ArcGIS to start with the operating system, complete the steps specific to your operating system.

Operating systems that support systemd

If your operating system supports the use of systemd to bootstrap and manage processes (for example, if you are using Red Hat 7.x), follow these steps to configure Portal for ArcGIS to start with the operating system.

1. Within a command shell, switch to root user.
2. Copy the <Portal for ArcGIS installation directory>/framework/etc/arcgisportal.service unit file to /etc/systemd/system. Once the file is copied over, make sure /etc/systemd/system/arcgisportal.service has its file permissions set to 600.

   Nota:

   This file is installed with Portal for ArcGIS 10.5.1.

3. Still as root user, run the following command to automatically create the links in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants:
   # systemctl enable arcgisportal.service

   Nota:

   To prevent any one service from spawning too many threads and consuming all server resources, systemd v228 and beyond included in SLES12 SP2 and higher set the maximum number of threads to be created at 512. Users on SLES12 may need to enable and raise this limit if it is a heavily used system. To enable and raise this limit, as root user, uncomment and edit the following line in the <arcgisserver.service | arcgisportal.service | arcgisdatastore.service> unit file before deploying it to the /etc/systemd/system folder: # TasksMax=512

4. To verify that the systemd service is properly configured, restart the service and check its status.
   # systemctl stop arcgisportal.service
   # systemctl start arcgisportal.service
   # systemctl status arcgisportal.service

5. End the root user session.
6. Reboot the operating system and verify that Portal for ArcGIS restarts properly.

Operating systems that support SysV

If your operating system supports the use of SysV to bootstrap and manage processes, follow these steps to configure Portal for ArcGIS to start with the operating system.

1. Within a command shell, switch to root user.
2. Copy the <Portal for ArcGIS installation directory>/framework/etc/arcgisportal shell script to the appropriate supported Linux distribution-based locations provided below:
   • RHEL: /etc/rc.d/init.d/
   • SUSE: /etc/init.d/
3. Change the directory to the applicable init.d folder, and check the arcgisportal script to make sure that root has at least read and execute permissions.
4. Edit the script as follows:

   1. Update the portalhome variable to the Portal for ArcGIS installation directory, for example, /home/username/arcgis/portal.

   2. For RHEL only, add the line below just before # Description: Portal for ArcGIS Service:

      # chkconfig: 35 99 01

   3. Save the edits to the arcgisportal script.

5. Still as root user, run the following commands to automatically create the links in /etc/rc*.d with the appropriate run levels:
   • RHEL:
     $ chkconfig --add arcgisportal
     $ chkconfig arcgisportal on

   • SUSE:
     $ insserv arcgisportal
     $ chkconfig arcgisportal on

6. End the root user session.
7. Reboot the operating system, and verify that Portal for ArcGIS restarts properly.
