Install a customized installation package
(CIP) using the Installation wizard on distributed operating system
platforms. You install from a CIP image created with the IBM® WebSphere® Installation
Factory.
Before you begin
You can install a customized installation package (CIP) that
includes a
WebSphere ESB product
and one or more maintenance packages and other customizations. You
must create a CIP with the IBM Installation
Factory before you can install the CIP. See
Creating customized
installation packages for more information about generating customized
installation packages (CIPs).
Procedure
- The steps required to install a CIP interactively are the
same as for a conventional installation. See Installing WebSphere ESB interactively for the required steps.
- On the Welcome panel an additional About this
customized installation package button is displayed when
you are installing a CIP. Click the button to see the detailed
information about the CIP, including:
- the version of the Installation Factory used to create the CIP,
- the package and version of the product that the CIP will install,
- the build time and date of the CIP,
- a list of features and interim fixes,
- the operating system on which the CIP can be installed,
- whether slip installation is supported,
- any organization or description that the creator added on the
Authorship panel.

any existing installations of WebSphere products
that could impact your installation. If no existing installations
of WebSphere products
impact your installation, you have also chosen the type of installation
you want to perform
(Typical or Deployment environment).
