Performing the installation

The steps for installing the adapter are the same for all WebSphere® Adapters. You can install the adapter either by using a graphical user interface or by performing a silent installation.

Before you begin

Review the installation prerequisites.

About this task

To install the adapter, use the following procedure.

How to perform this task

  1. Install the adapter using the basic installation instructions, which are common to all adapters. These steps are located in the "Installing" section of Installing IBM WebSphere Adapters in the IBM WebSphere Business Integration information center.
    Note: Some WebSphere Adapters require you to perform additional steps specific to your adapter to complete the installation. The WebSphere Adapter for Flat Files does not have this requirement.
  2. After performing the basic installation steps, you can configure the adapter.
