Reinstall Collibra DGC 5.9.0 and add service on Linux

When you reinstall the services on a node, you can also add one or more extra services.

Tip You can also add services when you upgrade the services.

Prerequisites

• You must reinstall with the same user account that was used for the installation. If the user account is no longer active, see Upgrade an environment with another user account.
• You have enough free disk space in the volume that hosts the data folder, collibra_data. The free disk space must be at least the size of the current data.
  For example, if your data in the data folder takes 5 GB, you need at least 5 GB of free disk space on that volume to upgrade.
• You have to use the same installer as the original installation.
• The node that will run the Search service, must pass the following bootstrap checks:
  • File descriptor
  • Maximum number of threads check
  • Maximum file size
  • Maximum size virtual memory check
  • Maximum map count check

  Type	Check description	Minimum value	Applies for installation type	Setting name
  User limit	Maximum number of open file descriptors	65536	Without root permissions With root permissions, using System V init daemon	nofile
  	Maximum number of open threads/processes	4096		nproc
  	Maximum file size	unlimited		fsize
  Kernel parameter	Maximum virtual memory areas	262144	All	vm.max_map_count

  For more information on these settings, see the Settings section.
