You must create a IBM® Enterprise
Records Web
application deployment profile for the application server
domain to configure and deploy the IBM Enterprise
Records web application and the Application Engine or Workplace XT web application.
The information for a profile is collected in XML files in
the form of properties and values that describe the associated configuration
and deployment tasks. You must provide values for the profile properties
that are specific to each configuration at your site, such as the
application server name. The XML files are stored in a directory that
is unique to a given profile. Because the profile name is used for
the directory name and for the configuration profile file name, you
must provide a profile name that is a valid directory name for your
operating system. By default, the profiles are stored in the
ier_install_path/configure/profiles directory,
where
ier_install_path is the location where
IBM Enterprise
Records is installed. You need
to complete the following task:
- Configure Web Application
To create a Web application deployment profile:
- For WebSphere® and
WebLogic, ensure that your application server is running. For
JBoss, ensure that your JBoss Application Server is
not running.
- If not already running, start the IBM Enterprise
Records Configuration Manager.
- Start the Create New Installation Profile wizard
by selecting .
- Complete the wizard panels in order.
Attention: WebSphere Application
Server and Oracle WebLogic Server: If you are creating the
profile for a highly available clustered environment, specify information
for the WebSphere Application
Server deployment
manager, or the domain for the Oracle WebLogic Server administrative
server.
- Select the Profile type, Web application deployment.
- You must complete the Configure Web Application tasks before you
deploy the IBM Enterprise
Records web
application.
- Optional: WebSphere Application
Server and Oracle WebLogic Server only. In the Set
Properties for Application Server screen, click Test
Connection to test the connection between Configuration
Manager and the application server by using the information that you
provided. The test is optional, and you can proceed in
the wizard even if the test fails. If the test fails, make sure that
the application server is running and that the application server
property values that you entered match the values that are defined
in your application server.
The profile you created is displayed
as an icon in the left profile pane along with tasks and icons.
- Complete the Configure Web Application task. The Configure Web Application task configures
the IBM Enterprise
Records and Application Engine or Workplace XT web applications with
interface files from each application. This includes copying the appropriate IBM Enterprise
Records JAR files to the Application Engine or Workplace XT WEB-INF/lib folder.
During
this task, the Configuration Manager detects the authentication method
on your Application Engine or Workplace XT application server and
displays an informational message similar to the following message: This
web application was configured for application managed authentication.
