Installing additional features on an existing Network Deployment installation

This topic describes how to install additional features on an existing IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment installation.

Before you begin

[Version 6.0.2]You can also install a customized installation package (CIP) that includes IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment and one or more maintenance packages and other customizations. The Installation Factory must create a CIP before you can install the CIP. See Developing and installing customized installation packages for more information about creating a customized installation package (CIP).

[Version 6.0.2]

Why and when to perform this task

Use the following procedure to add features to an existing WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment installation.

Steps for this task

  1. After confirming that your operating system is supported and that you have installed all necessary patches, click Next to continue.

    The Installation wizard checks for a previous installation at the same product level. This task describes the scenario where a previous installation exists and you are adding features with an incremental installation.

    When the wizard detects a previous installation, it displays the Existing installation panel. The panel lets you add features to the existing installation, or perform a new installation to another directory.

  2. Select the check box for installing additional features and click Next.

    Do not change the installation directory unless another existing installation is in the directory that you specify. An incremental installation adds features to the shared binaries identified in the field.

    You can add features to the core product files at any time by running the Installation wizard again. Installing additional features does not affect profiles that you might have already created.

    When adding features during an incremental installation, the wizard displays the Features selection panel next.

Result

The Installation wizard installs the new features in the existing installation root directory. The Installation wizard configures the WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment product for the new features.
