Downloading and installing the patterns

The IBM® SOA Policy Gateway Pattern for use with IBM Workload Deployer Version 3.1.0.2 or IBM PureApplication System is packaged for download from Passport Advantage®.

Before you begin

Ensure that there is 10 GB of space available for the CI9G9ML.tar.gz file and an additional 10 - 14 GB for the extracted files.

The CI9G9ML.tar.gz file must be downloaded to a system running Linux or Microsoft Windows. Java™ Runtime Environment (JRE) Version 6 must also be installed prior to starting the pattern installation. You can download this version 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 CI9G9ML.tar.gz file. 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 web site: Passport Advantage.
  2. Download the archive file containing the images, script packages, and patterns to use. The file is named CI9G9ML.tar.gz.
  3. Open a terminal on Linux, or a command prompt window on Windows, and navigate to the directory where the CI9G9ML.tar.gz file was downloaded.
  4. Extract the contents of the CI9G9ML.tar.gz file to your local file system. On Linux, the extract command is: On Linux, the extract command is:
    tar xvzf CI9G9ML.tar.gz
    On Windows, use additional archive extraction software to extract the contents of CI9G9ML.tar.gz.
  5. Ensure that the following extracted files have execute permission on Linux systems:
    • chmod a+x installer/installer
    • chmod a+x installer/deployer.cli/bin/deployer
    • chmod a+x installer/deployer.cli/bin/3.1.0.2-20120531075842/deployer
  6. Change to the installer directory:
    cd installer
  7. To install the IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern into the Cloud appliance, 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 Cloud Appliance, and username and password are the Cloud Administrator credentials. For example:
    ./installer -h apiliwd.rchland.ibm.com -u cbadmin -p cbadmin
  8. 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.
  9. The patterns are imported. As each pattern is installed, a message is displayed in the installer to indicate it has been installed successfully. For example:
    Importing pattern "SOA Policy Gateway 2.0.0.0 - Governance Master" ...
    Import pattern "SOA Policy Gateway 2.0.0.0 - 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 used in the IBM SOA Policy Gateway Pattern already exists in the catalog, it is not overwritten.

What to do next

Accept licenses in the IBM Workload Deployer appliance or in IBM PureApplication System.

To validate the installation, see Verify the installed pattern.
