Install Options | Description |
|---|---|
-t, --install-target | Installation directory (default: current directory) |
-i, --instance-id | DBMS instance ID (optional). If left blank, omitted, or set to auto, the installer will try to detect the instance ID automatically. This may not work for customer installations. |
-H, --hostname | DBMS leader hostname or IP address. The hostname should be either the DBMS DNS machine name or the IP address. Note: Do not use localhost as the hostname. |
-u, --ssh-user | The DBMS SSH username (usually ingres or actian) that can log in using SSH to all nodes. In a multi-node installation, all nodes must support identical user credentials. |
-p, --ssh-password | SSH password (leave blank or set to 'none' for SSH key authentication) |
-P, --ssh-port | SSH port (default: 22) |
-e, --instance-setenv | Command to initialize the Ingres/Analytics Engine environment (optional). If left blank or omitted, the installer assumes the environment is already active for the SSH login. |
-j, --jdbc-user | The JDBC username to be used for all JDBC connections. The user requires access to and must have TRACE and IMA_SEC_READ privileges on the IMADB database. |
-J, --jdbc-password | JDBC password |
-n, --nodes | Additional nodes for multi-node setup. This list is only used for obtaining SSH key fingerprints and can be left blank if the keys will be provided manually. Do not include the leader node in this list. Note: To clear out an existing node list, set to ‘none’. |
-k, --ssh-server-keys | SSH server key fingerprints (comma-separated). Leave blank or set to ‘auto’ to automatically discover using ssh-keyscan. Note: You need SSH key fingerprints for all nodes in a multi-node installation. |
-s --ssh_key_paths | List of SSH private key files for key-based authentication (password must be empty) |
--container-engine | Select engine used by the installer: • docker • podman • auto (default) |
--dry-run | Validate inputs and show planned actions without installing |
--unattended | No prompts, exit on error |
--tenant-label | Label identifying the database server in metrics (Prometheus/Grafana). This distinguishes servers that share the same instance ID. This option is independent of --hostname, which is used only for the SSH/JDBC connection. Defaults to the server hostname or IP address. |
-grafana-access-mode | Selects the Grafana access mode. This option applies only to a full installation (--install-type full). The available modes are: • view-anonymous (default): Users can view dashboards without signing in. To make any changes, login with the randomly generated administrator password is required. • login-required: Users must sign in to view dashboards. • anonymous-admin: Provides behavior from before version 1.2. Users can view and modify dashboards without signing in. The default administrator credentials are admin/admin. |
-h, --help | Show help message |
