Installation Manager calls the post-installer
for any non-profile related configuration actions using positnstall.sh or positnstall.bat.
You can see a mention of the post-installer in the installation log.
Installation
manager considers the post-installation step a nonfatal one; therefore,
it does not roll back the installation if the post-installer returns
FAIL or PARTIAL SUCCESS. Installation manager will display
The
packages are installed with warnings at the end of the installation.
If the post-installation action fails, run
app_server_root/bin/postinstall.sh or
app_server_root/bin/postinstall.bat with
the following parameters (on one line):
-WS_CMT_CONF_DIR app_server_root/properties/postinstall/
-MASTER_ACTION_REGISTRY app_server_root/properties/postinstall/masterRegistry.xml
-SUB_ACTION_REGISTRY app_server_root/properties/postinstall/cacheRegistry.xml
-WS_PI_ACTION_REGISTRY_EXTENSION app_server_root/properties/postinstall/registryExtension.xml
-WS_CMT_LOG_HOME app_server_root/logs/postinstall/
-POSTINSTALL_LOG_FILE app_server_root/logs/postinstall/postinstall.log
Note: Application
Client for IBM® WebSphere® Application Server and IBM HTTP Server for WebSphere Application Server also use the
post-installer at installation time. If the post-installer fails,
the installation completes with warnings just like for WebSphere Application Server and recovery
is very similar. Simply replace app_server_root in
the example with app_client_root or IHS_root.
