Downloading and installing the patterns

The IBM® SOA Policy Gateway Pattern for use with IBM PureApplication System is packaged for download from Passport Advantage®.

Before you begin

You download the IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern to an interim system, which can be a Linux or Microsoft Windows system. You then run the installer on the interim system to install the patterns on the IBM PureApplication System.

Ensure that there is 16 GB of space available for the CIQ1LML.tar.gz file (Power target) or CIQ1VML.tar.gz file (x86 target), and an extra 40 GB for the extracted files. Java™ Runtime Environment (JRE) Version 6 must also be installed before starting the pattern installation. You can download the JRE for Linux from the following address: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/linux/download.html

About this task

The IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern is packaged in the CIQ1LML.tar.gz file for a Power target system, or theCIQ1VML.tar.gz file for an x86 target system. This archive contains the open virtual archive (OVA) files, script package files, and pattern definition files.

Procedure

To download the IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern images from Passport Advantage, complete the following steps:

  1. Access the Passport Advantage website: Passport Advantage.
  2. Download the archive file that contains the images, script packages, and patterns to use. The file is named CIQ1LML.tar.gz (Power target) or CIQ1VML.tar.gz (x86 target).
  3. Open a terminal on Linux, or a command prompt window on Windows, and navigate to the directory where the archive file was downloaded.
  4. Extract the contents of the archive file to your local file system. On Linux, the following extract command is used:
    tar xvzf archive_file
    On Windows, use extra archive extraction software to extract the contents of the archive file.
  5. Change to the installer directory:
    cd installer
  6. To install the IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern into the IBM PureApplication System, run the installer. The name of the command is installer.bat on Microsoft Windows or installer on Linux. Enter the following command: installer -h <host> -u <username> -p <password> where <host> is the IBM PureApplication System, and username and password are the Cloud Administrator credentials. For example:
    ./installer -h drivensnow.hillesden.ibm.com -u cbadmin -p cbadmin
  7. When prompted, accept the IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern license.
    1. On Microsoft Windows: after accepting the license agreement, if a new line in the terminal displays >>>, type quit() and press the Enter key. Repeat step 7.
  8. The patterns are imported. As each pattern is installed, a message is displayed in the installer to indicate it installed successfully. For example:
    Importing pattern "SOA Policy Gateway 2.5.0.0 - Governance Master" ...
    Import pattern "SOA Policy Gateway 2.5.0.0 - Governance Master" successfully.

Results

The patterns and scripts are loaded and the Virtual System patterns are created.
Note: If a virtual system pattern at the correct version that is used in the IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern exists in the catalog, it is not overwritten.

What to do next
