Use the Installation Factory plug-in to create a customized
installation package (CIP) or an integrated
installation package (IIP). A CIP contains a single product installation
package and various optional assets. An IIP
combines one or more installation packages into a single installation
workflow that you design.
Before you begin
Before you can create and install customized packages,
you must first download the following products:
Avoid trouble: Do not augment profiles
for the product during the installation of
WebSphere® Extended Deployment
Compute Grid Version
6.1. If your environment contains
WebSphere Application
Server
Network Deployment Version 7.0, you must
install
WebSphere Extended Deployment
Compute Grid Version
6.1.0.5 before you can augment profiles for the product.
gotcha
About this task
Using the Installation Factory, you create a CIP by combining
a single product component with maintenance packages, customization
scripts, and other files. When you create
an IIP, you aggregate individual components, or installation packages,
into a single installation package.
