Before installing MettleCI Command Line Interface you will need to perform a pre-installation Java update to make sure you Java environment is compatible with MettleCI.

These instructions assume you have already sourced a MettleCI license file during the Workbench installation process. Note that the installation of MettleCI Workbench is not a prerequisite to installing the MettleCI Command Line Interface.

Installation

  1. Download the latest MettleCI CLI RPM distributable from the MettleCI software download website.

  2. Open a shell and navigate to the $HOME directory of your DataStage Development Engine. Install the mettleCI CLI using Red Hat Package Manager (RPM)

    $> sudo rpm -U dm-mettleci-command-shell-x.x-x.noarch.rpm
$> # or for IBM AIX...
$> sudo rpm -U dm-mettleci-command-shell-x.x-x.noarch.rpm --nodeps --ignoreos

    … where x.x.x is the build version of the workbench you downloaded.

  3. Navigate to /opt/dm/mci/cli and use your favourite editor to open the config.properties file.

  4. If you don’t have one already, request a trial license for MettleCI from the link on the same site. This will be delivered to you via email as a file attachment. Save the file to the same directory into which you unzipped your MettleCI Command Shell distribution package.

  5. Modify the license.file=mettleci.lic to point to your MettleCI License file. This will typically be license.file=../mettleci.lic (the parent directory) if you are installing the MettleCI CLI alongside the MettleCI Workstation on a DataStage engine tier.

Verify your install/upgrade

  1. Verify your MettleCi is running:

    $> mettleci
MettleCI Command Line. Build xxx

mettleci>

Uninstall the Command Line Interface

  1. You can uninstall the MettleCI Workbench package like any other RPM package:

    $> sudo rpm -e dm-mettleci-command-shell-x.x-x.noarch

Downgrading Workbench

  1. If something goes wrong and you need to downgrade your version of MettleCI Workbench, without performing an uninstall/reinstall, you can use the following command:

    $> rpm -Uvh --oldpackage dm-mettleci-command-shell-x.x-x.noarch.rpm

    … where x.x.x is the build version of the CLI you want to downgrade to.
