Custom installation
This section describes the component selection screens
that are unique to the Custom installation. After you have navigated
through these screens, see step 3 to complete
the installation process.
Certain entries on the GUI screens have help icons next to them.
When you select an icon, a window opens with relevant information
about the feature and the prerequisites required for the feature.
Selecting installation components
To communicate to the system which components you plan
to install, perform the following steps:
- On the Choose the Setup Type screen, select the Custom
radio button. The Install Server screen appears.
Figure 10. Install Server screen
- On the Install Server screen, the check box beside the entry InterChange Server Express is
selected by default. Leave this checked to install InterChange Server Express.
The Use default ports check box is also
selected. Leave this selected to use the default ports listed for
the name server, MQ listener, and HTTP. These port numbers need
to be changed only if they are already in use by another application.
The default ports are as follows if WebSphere Business Integration Express
4.3.1 is not detected on the system: Name server port - 14500; MQ
listener port - 1416, HTTP port - 4443. If WebSphere Business Integration
Express 4.3.1 is detected, the default ports are Name server port
- 14501; MQ listener port - 1417, HTTP port - 4443. Use the NETSTAT *CNN command on the OS/400 or i5/OS system to determine whether
these ports are in use, or contact your network administrator.
To use different ports for any of the choices, deselect the Use default ports
check box and enter the port numbers you wish to use.
Select Next. The Install Tools screen appears.
Figure 11. Install Tools screen
- On the Install Tools screen, the check boxes beside the entries Administrative Tools and Development Tools are
selected by default. The tools will be installed on the Windows
system. Do one of the following:
- To install both the Administrative tools
and Development tools, leave the check boxes selected with the
defaults as shown.
- To install only the Administrative tools, deselect the check
box beside the entry Development Tools.
Note:
You cannot install only the Development tools. They
require that Administrative tools also be installed.
- To install neither the Administrative
tools nor Development tools, deselect the check boxes beside the
entries Administrative Tools and Development Tools.
Tip:
Deselect the check box beside Development Tools first.
This action enables the check box beside Administrative Tools,
so you can then deselect it.
Select Next. The Web-based tools screen
appears.
Figure 12. Install Web-based Tools screen
- Check the check box next to Web-based Tools to
install the web-based tools (System Monitor, Failed Event Manager,
and Web Deployment). The web-based tools are installed on the OS/400
or i5/OS system. The web-based tools require that a supported version
of WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server
Express be installed on the OS/400 or i5/OS system. If a supported
version of WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server
Express is not yet installed, you will be notified and prompted
to install it later on in the installation process. The web-based
tools will be configured to work with the WebSphere Application
Server or WebSphere Application Server Express. An application server
instance is created called ICSMON44.
Note:
The web-based tools can be installed after the
initial installation of WebSphere Business Integration Server Express.
As with installing any additional WebSphere Business Integration
Server Express, component, just run Launchpad again and select the
desired components (in this case web-based tools).
For more information about installation of web-based tools,
refer toAdditional Custom installation information. Leave the
check box empty if you do not want web-based tools, and select Next.
The Install Adapters screen appears.
Figure 13. Install Adapters screen
- On the Install Adapters screen, select the adapters you want
to install. The adapters are installed on the OS/400 or i5/OS system.
The Adapter for JText is selected by default because it is required
to run the System Test sample, which is part of the Samples component
and is required to complete the Quick Validate process to verify
the installation. For more information about Quick Validate, refer
to Chapter 5.
Note:
If an OS/400 V5R2 system does not have a licensed
version of the Crypto Access Provider (5722AC3) installed, then
an encryption screen appears before the Install Adapters screen.
Select Next
.
The Install Samples screen appears.
Figure 14. Install Samples screen
-
On the Install Samples screen, the check
box beside the entry Samples is preselected
by default. The samples are required for the Quick Validate process that
you can use to verify your system's installation. They are installed
on the OS/400 or i5/OS system.
- To install the Samples component, select Next.
Note:
The Samples component requires installation of the
InterChange Server Express, the Toolset Express, and the JText Adapter.
Therefore, when you elect to install the Samples component, the
InterChange Server Express, the Toolset Express, and the JText Adapter
are installed as well, regardless of whether you elected to install
them in previous screens.
- To not install the Samples component,
deselect the check box and select Next.
At this point the installation program checks whether you have the
required prerequisites for options you selected. After it is finished,
the Software Prerequisites screen appears.
- Follow step 3 through
step 9 in the "Typical Installation"
section and then continue with the additional steps in the following
section, Additional Custom installation steps.
Note:
If you are planning on using a remote IBM DB2 Universal
Database for iSeries, refer to
IBM DB2 Universal Database.
Additional Custom installation steps
With a Custom installation, additional screens appear
after the summary screen described in step 9. Their use is described in the following steps:
- After you have selected "Finish" (as in step 9), another installation wizard starts. The following
screen appears:
Figure 15. Windows directory selection screen
The default path for the installation of product components on the
Windows system is displayed. Accept the default or change it, and
select Next. The pre-installation summary
screen appears.
Note:
The directory path must not contain any spaces.
Throughout the rest of this document, the installation directory C:\IBM\WebSphereServer (or the alternative path that you entered) will be referred
to as ProductDir.
Figure 16. Pre-installation summary screen for components installed on the Windows system
- Confirm that all the desired components will be installed on
the Windows system, and if so, select Next to
start the installation. A progress bar will be displayed.
- When the installation is complete, a final screen will appear.
Click the Finish button. A message appears informing you that the
installation is complete and asks if you would like to launch the
First Steps application. For more information on this application,
refer to the section Using First Steps.
- The Launchpad remains open. Click the Exit button on the Launchpad
to close it.
Additional Custom installation information
During the Custom installation process, if you choose
to install web-based tools, you must configure port numbers for
them. During the operation of the installation wizard for components
installed on the OS/400 or i5/OS system, the following screen appears after the License Agreement screen and before the RBAC Information screen:
Figure 17. Web-based tools port configuration screen
On this screen, enter the port numbers you will use. These numbers
are defined as follows:
- HTTP port: the HTTP port used for the application. You will
access the web-based tools with using this port number, as in the
URL described below.
- SSL port: used for HTTP with SSL communication
- WAS 12 Port Block: Enter the first port number to use in a range
of twelve consecutive ports to use for the WebSphere Application
Server.
Use the NETSTAT *CNN command on the OS/400 or i5/OS system to determine which ports
are available for use, or contact your network administrator.
You will be able to access the web tools by entering a URL with
the following syntax into your web browser on a client system:
where hostname is the name of your OS/400 or i5/OS system, and portnum is the HTTP port number provided in this screen.
