If the software prerequisites required for your planned installation have a
status of OK, you can proceed to installing WebSphere Business
Integration Server Express or Express Plus.
Each of the three major components has a separate installation
program.
To start any of the installation programs:
- Click Install Product at the bottom of the Software
Prerequisites screen.
The Software License Agreement screen appears.
- Read and accept the terms of the Software License Agreement by selecting
the radio button beside the entry I accept the terms in the license
agreement, and then click Next.
Refer to the following sections for instructions on how to finish the
installation process for each of the components:
- Note:
- Depending on the options you selected during the first part of the
installation, you may encounter screens that are not mentioned in this
guide. Each screen clearly requests information. Follow the
instructions on each screen.
The first installation program that launches after you complete
installation of the software prerequisites is the Console installation
program. If you did not choose to install the Console feature from the
Launchpad, skip to the next subsection, Installing the WebSphere InterChange Server on the OS/400.
To install the Console:
- In the Destination screen that appears after you have accepted the
Software License Agreement, accept the default installation location of
C:\IBM\WebSphereBusinessIntegrationConsole or browse for a
different location, and then click Next.
- Note:
- The directory path must not contain any spaces.
After you click Next, there are no additional input
screens. The installation finishes and a Summary Information screen
appears.
- Click Finish.
If you chose to install the WebSphere InterChange Server for OS/400, then
the server installation program will launch. Refer to the next section,
Installing the WebSphere InterChange Server on the OS/400 for detailed installation instructions.
If you did not choose to install the WebSphere InterChange Server for
OS/400, but you chose to install the Administrative Tools or Development
Tools, then the Tools installation program will launch to install the tools on
your Windows client system. Refer to Installing the Toolset on Windows for detailed installation instructions.
If you did not choose to install the WebSphere InterChange Server for
OS/400 or the Administrative or Development Tools, you are finished.
If you chose to install the WebSphere InterChange Server on the OS/400, the
Server installation program launches after the Console installation program
completes installation of the Console.
If you did not choose to install the Console, the Server installation is
the first installation program that launches after you click Install
Product at the bottom of the Software Prerequisites screen.
If you did not choose to install WebSphere InterChange Server on your
OS/400 from the Launchpad, skip to the next subsection, Installing the Toolset on Windows.
To install WebSphere InterChange Server on the OS/400:
- In the screen that appears if you selected the System Monitor or Failed
Event Manager Web-based Tools, provide the following port information for the
WebSphere Application Server that is configured to run the tools, and then
click Next:
-
HTTP Port -- for normal HTTP traffic
-
SSL Port -- for secure HTTP traffic
-
WAS 12 Port Block -- the port range for the WebSphere Application
Server
Check with your network administrator for available ports.
If you did not select the System Monitor or Failed Event Manager Web-based
Tools, no input is required.
The installation program installs the WebSphere InterChange Server on the
OS/400.
- When the installation is complete, click
Finish.
If you chose to install the Administrative Tools or Development Tools, then
the Windows installation program for Tools launches to install the tools on
your Windows client system. Continue to Installing the Toolset on Windows for detailed installation instructions.
If you did not choose to install the Administrative or Development Tools,
you are finished.
If you chose to install the Administrative Tools or the Development Tools
from the Launchpad, the Windows installation program for Tools
launches.
If you did not choose to install the Console or the WebSphere InterChange
Server on the OS/400, then the Toolset installation is the first installation
program that launches after you click Install Product at the bottom
of the Software Prerequisites screen. Otherwise this installation
program launches after the Console and the Server installation
programs.
To install the Toolset on your Windows client:
- In the Destination screen, accept the default
installation location of c:\IBM\WebSphereServer or browse for
a different location, and then click Next.
- Note:
- The directory path must not contain any spaces.
As the installation process begins, the installer verifies that enough disk
space exists for the installation. If enough space does not exist, the
Next button is disabled since installation cannot be completed with
the provided disk space. In this case, you must select Back
and clear some features or sub-features or delete some unneeded space on the
specified drive, or change the target location by changing the path in the
Directory field in the Destination screen.
If enough space does exist, installation and configuration begin. A
number of informational screens are presented. When installation and
configuration are complete, the Post-installation Summary Screen appears,
which indicates if the process was successful or if problems were
encountered.
- When the installation is complete, click Finish.
The installation process has completed the following tasks, depending on
the features you chose in the Launchpad:
- Installed product components.
- Configured the Cwtools.cfg file used by the Toolset
Express.
- Configured the InterchangeSystem.cfg file used by the
InterChange Server Express.
- Configured a queue manager for WebSphere MQ.
- InterChange Server Express is configured to automatically start with the
TCP/IP auto-start servers on OS/400.
- Provided platform-specific configuration and registration.
- Deployed content to the InterChange Server Express.
You can now view the files and directory structure of your system, as
detailed in Viewing WebSphere Business Integration Server Express and Express Plus files and directories.
There are two log files containing information about the install process
for the OS/400 installation:
- On OS/400, the install.log file is located in the
directory /QIBM/ProdData/WBIServer43/.
- In Windows, if the tools are installed, the log file called
wbi_server_exp_install_log.txt is located in the directory
ProductDir\log\.
When you are installing WebSphere Business Integration Server Express and
Express Plus, you can install all or some subset of product components.
The installable components are selectable from the screens that appear when
you select the Install Product button from the left panel of the
Launchpad or from within the response file used during silent
installation.
The components available for installation differ based on the Windows
platform being used. Support for installed components can differ based
on whether they are being used in production or development
environments. See Table 4 for a listing of which product components are
supported on each of the Windows platforms in both production and development
environments.
- Note:
- WebSphere InterChange Server Express only gets installed on Windows if you
chose to install the Integrated Test Environment from the Launchpad
installation program.
The following sections describe the installable components available per
Windows operating system:
See the System Administration Guide for descriptions of the
InterChange Server Express and Toolset Express components; the individual
adapter guides for descriptions of the adapters. All documentation is

After you have installed WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or
Express Plus, you can later install additional components. To do this,
select the Install Product button from the left panel of the
Launchpad. The Launchpad then offers screens from which you can select
components to install, as detailed in Identifying which software prerequisites are required. For components that are already installed, the
screen appears but the checkboxes are already selected and disabled.
The only exception is the encryption screen, which is not shown if 5722AC3 is
already installed.
The Launchpad determines whether additional software prerequisites are
required based on your new selections and leads you through their
installation, as well as installation of the new WebSphere Business
Integration Server Express or Express Plus components.
