Step 1. Prepare for LANSA installation (requires root privileges)
1. Optionally, request the appropriate LANSA licenses. Licenses are only required at execution time, so you can request and install licenses after the install. Refer to the LANSA website for information.
2. Create a new Linux group for the LANSA installation. This will allow access to the LANSA files and directories to be restricted to users who belong to the group.
3. Create a Linux user to 'own' LANSA for Linux. This user id is referred to as the LANSA owner.
4. Decide on a directory for the LANSA installation. For example: /opt/lansa. This directory is known as LANSAXROOT. We recommend a bare minimum of 200Mb of free space (to allow for the LANSA installation and the import of the DEM partition).
