49
50 6) Finally run following commands,
51 cp ../config/hai /giis
52 cp ../config/quotes /giis
53 cp ../config/giis.conf /etc
54
55 Configuration File Setup:
56 =========================
57 config/giis.conf should be edited before running giis installation with config file using command,
58 sh install_giis.sh 1
59 It will place the file under /etc.
60
61
62 During installation, giis will prompt user for directories that needs to be protected.
63 After installation user can't configure(add) any new directories.
64 To overcome this limitation,/etc/giis.conf file allows user to configure directories
65 (after installation)list that can be protected.
66
67
68 During installation ,if auto-detection of device fails you can enter device name directly in $DEVICE macro.
69 Example:
70 $DEVICE = /dev/sdaX$
71
72 Replce X with your device number.Please make sure there is blank space/whitespace before and after = symbol.
73 The line should have $ symbol at beginning and at the end.
74
75 You can add directories using $DIR macro.Again Please make sure there is blank space/whitespace before and after = symbol.Here too line
76 should start and end with $ symbol.
77
78 These directory *must* be direct sub-directory of /,while /etc is allowed entry and /etc/something is not allowed
79
80 Valid Examples:
81
82 $DIR = etc$
83 $DIR = var$
84 $DIR = opt$
85
86 Invliad options:
87 $DIR=etc$ -- Invalid since there should be whitespace before and after =.
88 $DEVICE=/dev/sda2$ -- Invalid since there should be white space before and after =.
89 DIR = etc -- Invalid since there should be $ symbol at the beginning and end of line.
90 $DIR = etc -- Invalid since there should be $ at the end of the line.
91 $DIR = etc $ -- Invalid since there whitespace space before $
92
93 I hope above examples helped you.In simple terms ,
94 1)There MUST BE single whitespace before and after =
95 2)There SHOULD NOT BE any whitespace before or after $.
96
97
98 $LEVEL_VALUE ,used to provide Max.Directory depth.Default value Supports upto 10 levels of sub-dir.(dir1/dir2/dir3.../dir10)
