Download DSE package in an offline environment

In offline environments, you must download DSE packages with a proxy or repository mirror.

DataStax software is available for download from IBM Fix Central.

Prerequisites

  • An active DSE and OpsCenter license.

  • An IBMid.

    • If you are an existing IBM customer with an IBMid, you can continue to use your established account.

    • If you don’t have an IBMid, you can create one.

    • If your company uses Enterprise Federation (EF) for authentication with corporate credentials, see the EF documentation.

Download by proxy

If target nodes can perform HTTP or HTTPS downloads via a proxy, such as Squid, LCM configures the targets to use the proxy when downloading DSE packages from Fix Central. For more, see Configure an HTTP or HTTPS proxy.

Running an open and public proxy can lead to a wide variety of abuse and security issues. Ensure that you secure your proxy appropriately, including required authentication and firewall protection.

Download by repository mirror

You can download the DataStax packages from Fix Central to a local mirror repository created and managed by your organization. Then, LCM can install packages by accessing the local mirror repository.
