Install VSQL Client Driver

Does not apply in a SaaS environment

The Logger host requires the VSQL client to perform the data migration procedure. If the client is not present, follow these steps to install the VSQL Client driver.

  1. Download the TAR version of the driver.

    Tip: Micro Focus recommends to use the same version for database server and TAR driver. Refer to the Technical Requirements for Arcsight Platform for details on the supported version.
  2. To extract the TAR from the directory, run the following command:

    tar xvfz vertica-client-[version] [OS].tar.gz -C /
  3. From your home directory, add the PATH:

    cd ~

  4. Open the file:

    vi .bashrc

  5. On the PATH variable located by default in the /opt/vertica/bin file, add the vsql path:

    export PATH-$ANT_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH:$P4_HOME/bin:/opt/vertica/bin

    If the PATH variable is not found, create it:

    PATH=$PATH:/opt/vertica/bin
  6. Save the changes:

    :wq and press ENTER.

  7. Refresh the .bashrc file:

    source .bashrc
  8. To verify VSQL has been installed, run the following command:

    vsql --version
