This topic describes how to install WebSphere® Sensor Events and its
prerequisite software using Tivoli® Provisioning Manager for Software.
Before you begin
Important: These instructions apply only if you are using Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Software to install
the WebSphere Sensor Events software
on Windows® operating systems.
Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Software is recommended
for deploying multiple WebSphere Sensor Events servers.
It helps to automate the installation of the prerequisite software
across multiple servers. Some steps must be performed manually on
each server.
Procedure
- Check your hardware and operating system and make sure that they meet the necessary
requirements.
- Install Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Software using
the instructions in the Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Software documentation.
- Discover your endpoints (one for each WebSphere Sensor Events server)
for Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Software.
- Install the common agent on each endpoint server. If
you are installing DB2®, make
sure to set the common agent as LOCAL_SYSTEM on
the client server.
- Set up Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Software to install
the prerequisite software for WebSphere Sensor Events.
- Copy the contents of the TPM directory
from the second disk for WebSphere Sensor Events for Windows operating systems to
the Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Software server's C: drive.
- Copy the WASEC61 directory from
the second WebSphere Sensor Events disk
to C:\IBM\SIF\isp\windows\cdimages\WASEC61.
- Extract disk_root\bin\com\ibm\jsdt\webserver\tree\ihswin.xx.jar from
the first WebSphere Sensor Events disk
to C:\IBM\SIF\isp\windows\cdimages\WASND61.
- Extract disk_root\bin\com\ibm\jsdt\webserver\tree\waswin.xx.jar from
the first WebSphere Sensor Events disk
to C:\IBM\SIF\isp\windows\cdimages\WASND61.
- Extract disk_root\bin\com\ibm\jsdt\webserver\tree\db2win.xx.jar from
the first WebSphere Sensor Events disk
to C:\IBM\SIF\isp\windows\cdimages\DB2WSE95.
Note: If you are installing DB2,
the provided response file uses the DB2 user
name, db2admin, and the password, Passw8rd.
The response file is located at disk_root\TPM\IBM\SIF\isp\windows\bin\DB2WSE95FP3A\SifInstall_DB2WSE95.rsp
- Extract disk_root\bin\com\ibm\jsdt\webserver\tree\mqwin.xx.jar from
the first WebSphere Sensor Events disk
to C:\IBM\SIF\isp\windows\cdimages\MQ6.
- Extract disk_root\bin\com\ibm\jsdt\webserver\tree\mq6rp2fp5win.xx.jar from
the first WebSphere Sensor Events disk
to C:\IBM\SIF\isp\windows\cdimages\MQ602FP5.
- Open the software packages in the Software Package Editor. You can launch Software Package Editor through Java™ Web Start or in an Eclipse environment.
- Create the software package block by selecting and choosing LocalFileRepository.
If you navigate to or if
you open a software package block using the Software Package Editor,
you should see the list of packages in the repository (LocalFileRepository).
