Installing the Collaboration Capacity Pack using the GUI
To successfully install a collaboration
from the Collaboration Capacity Pack, you and your system must meet the
following prerequisites:
- You must have WebSphere Business Integration Server Express
Plus installed on the machine on which you are installing a collaboration
from the Collaboration Capacity Pack (a collaboration from the Collaboration
Capacity Pack cannot be installed with a WebSphere Business Integration
Server Express installation).
- A collaboration from the Collaboration Capacity Pack must be
installed on the same machine on which the InterChange Server Express
is installed.
- You cannot have an existing Collaboration Capacity Pack installation
on the machine.
- The InterChange Server Express component must not be
running.
The Collaboration Capacity Pack installation GUI installs the
selected collaboration group and deploys the installed content to
the InterChange Server Express.
To invoke the Launchpad to launch this installation GUI, do the
following:
- Select the button labeled Install Capacity Pack from
the Launchpad.
The Install Capacity Pack screen appears with two buttons.
- Select Install Collaboration Capacity Pack to
launch the GUI to install a collaboration from the Collaboration
Capacity Pack. The Launchpad first checks if the InterChange Server
Express component of WebSphere Business Integration Server Express
Plus is installed on the local machine. It then acts, as follows:
- If the InterChange Server Express component is not installed
on the local machine, a warning dialog alerts you that installation
can fail. Select Cancel to cancel the installation
or Install to continue the installation. If
you elect to continue the installation, the welcome screen appears.
- If the InterChange Server Express component is installed on
the local machine, the welcome screen appears.
-
At the welcome screen, select Next.
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,
then select Next.
The installer checks that the prerequisites listed at the beginning
of this section have been met. If any have not been met, it forces
you to cancel the installation by selecting the Cancel button.
If all prerequisites have been met, the feature screen appears.
-
On the feature screen, select one
collaboration group from the list of available collaboration groups,
by selecting the radio button beside its name, then select Next.
For more information on the collaboration groups selectable from
this screen, see Deciding which collaboration group to install.
The RBAC Info screen appears.
- On RBAC Info screen, you are asked to indicate
whether you have role-based access control enabled. Perform one
of the following options:
- If you do, select the radio button next to Yes,
and fill out the user name and password information that you created
during the installation process. Then select Next.
- If you do not, select the radio button next to No and
select Next.
A pre-installation summary screen appears.
-
On the pre-installation summary screen, review
your selection and installation location and select Next.
The installer verifies that enough disk space exists for the
installation. Installation then proceeds, as follows:
- 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
free some space on the specified drive.
- If enough space does exist, installation and configuration begin.
When installation and configuration are complete, a post-installation
summary screen appears, which indicates if the process was successful
or if problems were encountered.
-
On the post-installation summary screen, select Finish to
exit the installation GUI.
