Optional installation steps

You can select optional components to install.

HATS installation is described at the end of the regular installation. HATS allows you to put a web interface on screens that do not use DDS (like system screens). It is a complement to the IBM WebFacing Tool. You can see information about this installation step by selecting the HATS check box. HATS is on a separate CD.

Portal Toolkit comes only with the Advanced Edition and is described at the end of the regular installation. Portal Toolkit provides the capability to produce web interfaces that split a browser window up into application areas, known as portlets. You can see information about this installation step by selecting the Portal Toolkit check box. Portal Toolkit is on a separate CD.

eGL can be selected as an option near the beginning of the installation. eGL allows you to program productively with a higher level of abstraction, ultimately producing Java or COBOL code. If you select this option during that part of the installation, all Development Studio Client items related to eGL are automatically installed.

After installation

Upgrading to the Advanced edition

WebSphere Development Studio Client for iSeries is packaged with WebSphere Studio Site Developer. The Advanced Edition of Development Studio Client is packaged with WebSphere Studio Application Developer. Therefore, if you want to upgrade to the Advanced Edition of our product, you need to first uninstall WebSphere Development Studio Client for iSeries, and then install the Advanced Edition.

  1. Click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
  2. Click IBM WebSphere Development Studio Client for iSeries Version 5.1, then click Change/Remove for Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
  3. Select Remove product.
  4. Reboot your machine after uninstalling.
Important:
You do not lose any of your projects if you upgrade to the Advanced Edition. Just ensure that you are using the same workspace.

Copying the product to a LAN server

Although you cannot install the product on a LAN drive, you as an administrator can copy all the files from the DVD onto a LAN server. Your users can then install the product from the server to their workstations

To copy from DVD to a server:

  1. Create a directory to store product files. At least 1.7 GB are required.
  2. Insert the installation DVD in the DVD-ROM drive. Ensure that the installation setup does not execute.
  3. Copy all files from DVD to the storage directory with the following command:xcopy X:*.* y:\wdscimage /e /q where X is the DVD-ROM drive letter and Y:\wdscimage is an existing destination drive and path.

Installing from a LAN server to a workstation

After the product is copied to a LAN server (see Copying the product to a LAN server), it can be installed onto a workstation from the server. The installation must be done from the workstation.

  1. Open a Command Prompt window on the workstation.
  2. Enter a net use command to connect the LAN server drive where the product was copied to. Ensure that at least 1.7 GB are available on the workstation.
  3. Enter the command X:\wdscimage\setup (where X is the LAN server drive) and follow the installation instructions.

You can also perform this command from Windows Explorer. Click Tools > Map Network Drive.

Copying the product to an iSeries server

An administrator or user can copy all the files from the DVD onto an iSeries server. This allows users to install from the iSeries server to a workstation.

To copy the DVD on to an iSeries server, perform the following steps:

  1. On the iSeries server, ensure that NetServer is running:
    1. Sign on to the iSeries server.
    2. At the command line type STRTCPSVR *NETSVR.
  2. Using Client Access, create a folder on your Integrated File System called wdsc, and share it.
  3. Map a network drive to your iSeries server:
    1. On the workstation, start Explorer by choosing Start > Programs >Accessories > Windows Explorer.
    2. On the Explorer window, choose Tools > Map Network Drive to bring up the Map Network Drive window.
    3. On the Map Network Drive window:
      • Select an available drive in the Drive field ("m" in this example), and specify \\iSeriesname\wdsc in the Folder where iSeriesname is the name of your iSeries server. iSeriesname can also be the TCP/IP address of the iSeries server. Due to a path length limitation, we recommend that you install the product no more that two levels beyond the root level of the file system. For example, use m:\wdsc which maps to \\iSeriesname\wdsc\wdsc.
      • Select Reconnect at Logon if you want to reconnect to this drive the next time you reboot the workstation.
      • Click OK or Finish. The network drive to iSeries server should now be "m".
  4. Copy the files to the iSeries server:
    1. Insert the DVD into the CD-ROM drive. Ensure that the installation setup.exe file does not run.
    2. Copy all files from the disk to the directory you created and shared on your iSeries server (in step 2).

Installing from an iSeries server to a workstation

After the product is copied to the iSeries server (see Copying the product to an iSeries server), it can be installed onto a workstation from the server. The installation must be done on the workstation.

  1. Map the network drive to the iSeries drive where you copied the product files. See step 3 above. Ensure that at least 1.6 GB are available on the workstation.
  2. Double-click the m:\ directory
  3. Double-click setup.
  4. Follow the installation instructions.

Uninstalling from a workstation

In the Add/Remove Programs list in the Control Panel, only the products you can uninstall are listed, but if you separately installed either WebSphere Studio Site Developer or Application Developer, you also need to remove it separately.

Important:
A user with administrator authority must uninstall the product.

To uninstall all of Development Studio Client:

  1. Click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
  2. Click IBM WebSphere Development Studio Client, then click Change/Remove.
  3. Select Remove product.
  4. Always reboot your machine after uninstalling the product.

Troubleshooting: problems and workarounds

If you have trouble with installation, check the following things.

Problem Comments
Not enough temporary disk space available. The installation process uses disk space in the directories specified by the TEMP and TMP environment variables. If an "out of temporary storage" message occurs during installation, change the TEMP and TMP variables to another drive that has enough space. The installation might require up to 700 MB of temporary storage.
Installation seems to stall.. If installation does not appear to be progressing:
  • Installation messages can sometimes be hidden behind other windows and they might require a response.
  • If installing from a server, determine if other demands on the server are slowing the installation.
You clicked Cancel during installation Installation of that component is completed but no remaining components are installed. Uninstall and then reinstall.
