WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, Version 6.2.0 Operating Systems: AIX, HP-UX, i5/OS, Linux, Solaris, Windows


install command

The install command installs the product and most of the components in the product. When you install the product, the installer program installs the core product files and creates one or no profiles, depending on your installation selections. A silent parameter runs the installation wizard in silent mode without displaying the graphical user interface.

Purpose

This topic describes the command-line syntax for the install command. Start the install command module from the command line to install the product.

Before you begin installing the product

Prepare the operating system for installation. Follow the procedure in Preparing the operating system for WebSphere ESB installation to get started.

The command file resides in the root directory of the component on the product disk or CIP.

The install command starts the installation program in almost all components in the product package:
  • For i5/OS operating system On i5/OS® platforms (i5/OS native installation): install
  • For i5/OS operating system On i5/OS platforms (remote Windows® installation): install.exe
  • For Linux operating systemFor UNIX operating system On Linux® and UNIX® platforms: install
  • For Windows operating system On Windows platforms: install.exe

If the command or an alternative command is not applicable for a component on a particular operating system, the N/A abbreviation is displayed in Table 1. A command is not applicable if the component cannot be installed on the operating system.

Parameters and syntax

This section describes the command that starts the installation wizard.
  • Issue the install command to start the installation wizard and display the graphical user interface:
    • For i5/OS operating system On i5/OS platforms (i5/OS native installation): component_disc_directory/install
    • For i5/OS operating system On i5/OS platforms (remote Windows installation): component_disc_directory\install.exe
    • For Linux operating systemFor UNIX operating system On Linux and UNIX platforms: component_disc_directory/install
    • For Windows operating system On Windows platforms: component_disc_directory\install.exe
  • Issue the install -silent command to start the installation wizard in silent mode, without the graphical user interface:
    • For i5/OS operating system On i5/OS platforms (i5/OS native installation): component_disc_directory/install -options "response_file_name" -silent
    • For i5/OS operating system On i5/OS platforms (remote Windows installation): component_disc_directory\install.exe -options "response_file_name" -silent
    • For Linux operating systemFor UNIX operating system On Linux and UNIX platforms: component_disc_directory/install -options "response_file_name" -silent
    • For Windows operating system On Windows platforms: component_disc_directory\install.exe -options "response_file_name" -silent
Use the following install command options to perform the following tasks:
  • Perform a new product installation.
  • Perform an incremental installation by adding features to an existing installation.
  • Update an existing installation to a new service level (the term "slip install" is sometimes used to describe an update to an existing installation that updates the installation to a new service level).
  • Convert an existing WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment installation into a WebSphere ESB installation.
  • Configure an existing WebSphere ESB product by creating a profile.
Use Table 3 to determine valid values for each option.
