Installation Instructions

To start IBM SDK Installer, follow these steps:
  1. Create a directory, for example:
    /tmp/SDKInstaller or c:\temp\SDKInstaller

  2. Unzip IBM SDK Installer into the directory, for example:
    /tmp/SDKInstaller or c:\temp\SDKInstaller

  3. 3. Source the setupCmdLine.sh in the WebSphere Application Server bin directory on UNIX®-based platforms so that the WebSphere environment variables are set. For example, on UNIX-based platforms, run this command to source the script to the parent shell to inherit the exported variables:
    # . <was_root>/bin/setupCmdLine.sh
    (There is a space after the period.)
    Run setupCmdLine.bat in WebSphere Application Server bin directory on Windows platforms so that the WebSphere environment variables are set, for example:
    c:\websphere\appserver\bin\setupcmdline.bat

  4. Run install.bat or install.sh in the directory for graphical user interface(GUI) installer, or run install.bat / install.sh with command-line arguments for the non-GUI installer, for example:
    ./install.sh or install.bat


How to upgrade WebSphere Application Server SDK with GUI installer
  1. Stop all WebSphere Application Server processes, as well as related component processes such as IBM HTTP Server and embedded messaging.

  2. Run slibclean on AIX platform to remove any currently unused modules in kernel and library memory.

  3. Backup WebSphere Application Server.

  4. Create a Java backup directory to save current SDK directory (For example, /backup/java or c:\temp\java). Do not create the directory in WebSphere Application Server directory.

  5. Start IBM SDK Installer. Refer to "How to start IBM SDK Installer."

  6. Specify WebSphere Application Server Java SDK directory (by default, /usr/WebSphere/AppServer/java or c:\websphere\appserver\java)

  7. Specify the Java backup directory (from step 4). IBM SDK Installer will copy current Java SDK into the Java backup directory. Note: Any existing files in the backup directory will be overwritten.

  8. Specify Java SDK update file. For example, /sdk_builds/ca131-20040114-sdk.jar.

  9. Click the Update button to update Java SDK.

    BackupJavaDirectory: Backup Java directory for current Java SDK created in step 3. IBM SDK Installer will copy current Java SDK into the backup directory. Note: Any existing files in the backup directory will be overwritten.

    JarFile : Java SDK jar file: For example: ./install.sh /opt/WebSphere/AppServer/java /backup/java
    /tmp/13112-sdk.jar


How to restore WebSphere Application Server Java 2 SDK
  1. Stop all WebSphere Application Server processes, as well as related component processes such as IBM HTTP Server and embedded messaging. Run slibclean on AIX platform to remove any currently unused modules in kernel and library memory.

  2. Backup WebSphere Application Server java directory. For example, /usr/WebSphere/AppServer/java

  3. Delete all directories and files in WebSphere Application Server java directory.

  4. Restore all the files and directories from your backup Java SDK directory created during step 3 in "How to upgrade WebSphere Application Server Java SDK" above, into WebSphere Application Server Java SDK directory.
