For i5/OS operating system Installing a customized installation package on System i using a Windows workstation graphical interface

On System i, you can install your WebSphere® ESB CIP from a Windows® workstation graphical user interface (GUI).

Before you begin

This topic assumes that you have a CIP image created using the Installation Factory, that the target operating system of the CIP is i5/OS® and that you want to install the product from the CIP. See Creating customized installation packages for more information on generating the CIP.

A WebSphere ESB CIP being installed from a Windows workstation to an i5/OS system cannot be used to upgrade, add features to, or apply maintenance to an existing WebSphere ESB install. The WebSphere ESB CIP must be run using a local silent installation from the i5/OS system in these cases.

About this task

When you run the GUI installation tool, you specify installation options interactively during the installation process.

Use this procedure to install WebSphere ESB on i5/OS from a CIP with the GUI installation program:

Procedure
  1. If TCP/IP is not started or if you don't know if TCP/IP is started, enter the Start TCP/IP (STRTCP) command on the Control Language (CL) command line.
  2. Verify that the host server jobs are started on your System i server. The host server jobs allow the installation code to run on System i.
    Enter this command on a CL command line:
    STRHOSTSVR SERVER(*ALL)
  3. Verify that your user profile has the *ALLOBJ and *SECADM special authorities.
  4. Place the CIP for i5/OS disc in the disc drive of your Windows workstation. The autorun feature brings up the launchpad.

    Do not use the IBM® WebSphere ESB Windows disc or any other operating system platform disc from the product package.

  5. Enter the name of the i5/OS server where you are installing WebSphere ESB and your corresponding i5/OS login information, then click OK.

    You also must enter a valid user ID and password for the server. Your profile must have *ALLOBJ and *SECADM special authorities for this step.

  6. On the Welcome panel, click Next.
  7. On the License agreement panel, review the IBM and non-IBM licensing terms and, if you accept the terms, select I accept both the IBM and the non-IBM terms, then click Next. If you do not accept the terms of the license agreement, you cannot continue with the installation.
  8. The system prerequisites check verifies that your server meets the minimum requirements to install the product. If the prerequisites are met, click Next. If the prerequisites are not met, you can continue the installation. However, it is recommended that you exit the installation wizard and make the required changes.
  9. On the Installation type panel, select the type of installation you want to perform and click Next.

    The installation wizard provides a choice of installation paths (not all might appear based on selections you made on previous panels). The next step depends on the type of installation you want.

    Installation type Next step
    Typical Installation (the default): installs WebSphere ESB and WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment using default installation selections and configurations. You can also create a stand-alone server, deployment manager, or custom profile. The Features selection panel is displayed. Go to the topic Installing WebSphere ESB and creating a profile interactively.
    Deployment Environment Installation: installs WebSphere ESB and WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, and guides you through setting up a deployment environment. You can choose to create a deployment manager based on a deployment environment pattern or continue to define a deployment environment that you have already created. The Features selection panel is displayed. Go to the topic Installing WebSphere ESB with a deployment environment interactively.

Results

This procedure results in installing the product from a Windows workstation GUI.

What to do next

Go to Installing customized installation packages: task roadmap to continue the installation.
