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]

    OptionDescription

    -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.

    참고 사항:

    At 10.6, you can also use the createportal command line utility to create a new portal once Portal for ArcGIS has been installed.

Using the createportal command line utility to create a portal

At 10.6, you can use the createportal command line utility to create a new portal once Portal for ArcGIS has been installed. Two options available for using the createportal utility are as follows:

  • Run the createportal utility as an administrator from a command prompt and specify the first name, last name, user name, password, email, secret question, answer, and content directory parameters.
  • Provide a createportal.properties file containing specified parameters.

For the usage of the createportal command line utility, run the createportal.sh script with -h or -help as shown below:

<Portal for ArcGIS Installation Directory>/tools/createportal/createportal.sh -help

Example usage with the utility: createportal.sh [-fn <arg>] [-ln <arg>] [-u <arg>] [-p <arg>] [-e <arg>] [-qi <arg>] [-qa <arg>] [-d <arg>]

Example usage using a file: createportal.sh [-f <FILE>]

참고 사항:

When you reference a path in the createportal.properties file, you need to escape the backslash. For example: C:\\arcgisportal, or \\\\<Absolute path to>\\<portal arcgisportal>.

By default, the portal content directory will be created locally at this location:

<Portal for ArcGIS Installation Directory>/usr/arcgisportal

-f; --file

By default, the createportal.properties file can be found at this location:

<Portal for ArcGIS Installation Directory>\tools\createportal

-h; --help

Example of the createportal.properties file:

#
# Portal for ArcGIS site creation properties

# Can only have the numbers 0-9, the ASCII letters a-z, A-Z and the dot character (.)
PORTAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD =
# Initially, leave PORTAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD_ENCRYPTED set to false.
# When you run the tool the first time, the password will be
# encrypted and PORTAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD_ENCRYPTED will change to true
PORTAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD_ENCRYPTED = false
# E-mail address for initial administrator account
# e.g username@domain.com
PORTAL_ADMIN_EMAIL =
#This is the index of the secret question to retrieve a forgotten password. 
#The list of questions with their respective index numbers is as follows:

PORTAL_CONTENT_DIRECTORY =

You will receive a message that the portal is created successfully before the tool 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.
    참고 사항:

    This file is installed with Portal for ArcGIS 10.6.1.

  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
  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.
