Use this procedure to install additional features on an existing
installation of WebSphere Process Server or the Client using the Installation
Wizard graphical user interface (GUI).
Before you begin
Before adding additional features to your installation using this
procedure, ensure that:
Why and when to perform this task
This procedure assumes that you have an installation of WebSphere
Process Server or the Client on your system and that you want to add features
to it using an interactive interface. You do not have to have an existing
WebSphere Process Server profile. If your proposed installation does not meet
these criteria, see Installing the software for
descriptions of other installation procedures. Following this procedure does
not modify features that are already installed or affect any updates made
to the original installation. Also, if you add features to a WebSphere Process
Server Client installation, it automatically becomes a WebSphere Process Server
installation.
Use the following procedure to install additional features
to your installation.
Steps for this task
- Log on as the root user on a Linux or UNIX system, or as a member
of the Administrator group on a Windows system.
- Start the Launchpad by following the procedure in Starting the Launchpad.
- Start the WebSphere Process Server installer.
From
the right pane of the Launchpad, select WebSphere Process Server installation
> Launch the Installation wizard for WebSphere Process Server for Multiplatforms.
- From the Welcome panel on the installer, select Next.
- In the License agreement panel, review the IBM
and non-IBM licensing terms, select I accept the terms in the license agreement,
and select Next.
The Installation wizard checks
for a supported operating system with prerequisite patches. At the end of
the process, the Checking prerequisites panel indicates whether your system
passed the check. This procedure assumes that your system passed.
If
your system did not pass, cancel the installation, make the required changes,
and restart the installation.
- In the Checking prerequisites panel, select Next.
The Installation wizard checks for any existing installations
of WebSphere Process Server, WebSphere Process Server Client, WebSphere Enterprise
Service Bus, WebSphere Application Server, and WebSphere Application Server
Network Deployment. This procedure assumes that you have an existing installation
of WebSphere Process Server or Client on your system. If you do, an Existing
installation detected panel is displayed.
Important: The
installer will also detect unregistered instances of WebSphere Application
Server or WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment if they have entries
in the .WASRegistry file. This file is located in the $USER_HOME
directory of the installation. Using an unregistered installation of one of
these products with your WebSphere Process Server installation is neither
recommended nor supported.
- In the Existing installation detected panel, select Add features
to an existing copy of WebSphere Process Server for Multiplatforms 6.0.2,
select the installation to which you want to add features, and select Next.
- In the Feature selection panel, select the features you want to
install and select Next. Features that are already installed have the
text (installed) beside them.
Important: Clearing
the check box beside an installed feature will not uninstall it. Also,
if you add features to a WebSphere Process Server Client installation, it
automatically becomes a WebSphere Process Server installation.
See Product components for descriptions
of the features you can select from this panel.
- In the Installation summary panel, review the components that will
be installed, the amount of space they will consume, and where they will be
located on the system, and select Next to install or Back to
change your specifications.
The disk space shown on the Installation
summary panel includes space for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Subtract
the size of the JVM for your operating system to determine the installed size
on disk for the features that you selected.
Table 1. JVM

Verify that you have the total amount of free space shown before
installing. Space is required for a working copy of the JVM during the installation.
The Installation wizard creates the uninstaller program and shows
a progress panel to indicate that components are being installed. At the end
of the installation, the Installation complete panel is displayed. Attention: If
errors are detected during installation, other panels might be displayed in
place of the Installation complete panel. Examples include the following:
- Installation is complete with errors panel, which indicates that the installation
completed but errors were generated.
- Installation failed panel, which indicates that the installation failed
completely.
Each of these panels identifies the log file to reference in order to
troubleshoot the problems. See the descriptions of relevant log files listed
in
Log files,
error messages in
Error messages: installation and profile creation and augmentation,
and refer to
Troubleshooting installation for
tips on troubleshooting your installation.
- In the Installation complete panel, do one of the following, depending
on whether you have an existing WebSphere Process Server profile:
- To create a new profile, leave the check box beside Launch the Profile
Wizard selected and select Next. The Installation wizard closes
and the Profile wizard is launched. See Creating profiles using the Profile wizard and Augmenting profiles using the Profile wizard for instructions on how to use this wizard
to create new process server profiles or augment existing application server
profiles into process server profiles.
- To not create a new profile, unselect the check box beside Launch
the Profile Wizard and select Next. The Installation complete panel
is displayed with a check box to launch the First Steps console. Ensure that
this check box is selected and select Finish to close the Installation
Wizard and launch the First Steps console.
Result
If the Installation complete panel is displayed at the end of the
procedure, the additional features were installed successfully.
What to do next
If the installation was successful, after you have created a WebSphere
Process Server stand-alone or deployment manager profile, start the server
or deployment manager from its First Steps console to verify that your installation
is operating properly. See
Options on the First Steps console for more details.
You
can also use the installation verification tools to verify your installation.
See Using the installation verification tools with WebSphere Process Server for more information.
