Downloading Installation Tools and Packages

Download the installation packages for the OMT Installer and the product of your choice from the Micro Focus Entitlement Portal to a secure network location. After download, validate the digital signature of each file. You can store all the packages on you local computer, as most of the tasks could be performed on it. To identify the files to download to your secure network location, see "Downloading and Installing the ArcSight Platform Installation Files" in the Release Notes for ArcSight Platform 23.3.

For installation, you must have the following files (each package requires its corresponding md5 file for authentication):

arcsight-platform-cloud-installer-XX.X.X.XXX.zip/.md5

arcsight-suite-metadata-<version>.tar/.md5

<product package file> tar/md5 [1 set for each product package you intend to install]

Installation tools

The arcsight-platform-cloud-installer-XX.X.X.XXX.zip archive contains utility scripts and some templates used during the deployment process.

The arcsight-platform-cloud-installer-XX.X.X.XXX/gcp-scripts/scripts directory includes these scripts:

• createFileStore.sh: Used to create the required folder structure on the Google Filestore and assign correct ownership and permissions. Used when configuring the Filestore for the ArcSight Suite. Parameters for this script are discussed in the following sections. Execute this script without parameters to display the help.

• refresh-gcr-secret.sh: Used to refresh the Kubernetes Secrets used to connect from the cluster to the Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). The generated credentials/secrets are valid for 60 minutes only. To access the GKE after this time frame, this script would be the only way to refresh the GKE credentials in the K8s.

• nfs-arcsight-volume-restore.sh: This script will be used when performing a restore of the arcsight volume.
