So, if we go into the messagebroker_ia_developer
directory and we launch the
launchpad,
we'll see that we have a number of components ready to install.
We'll lauch the installation, and wait for the Prepare Install wizard to run.
The first of the
applications that we'll install is IBM WebSphere MQ
application; IBM Integration Bus
comes with WebSphere MQ included
in the product with entitlement included as well.
[Installation continues...]
The installation wizard will take some time
to lay down the software and configure WebSphere MQ
so we'll come back to this once the installation of MQ is complete
and ready for configuration. Once the MQ software has been laid down, we are presented with
the MQ Preparation wizard, and we can simply follow through
the steps in front of the wizard.
[Installation continues...]
The wizard will start the MQ service. Once that's complete
we can choose what options we want, whether to launch the MQ Explorer
or look at the release notes; at this point we'll do neither.
And you'll notice
we can now see WebSphere MQ is installed successfully,
and we can move on. Depending on your operating system,
you might get a security warning as the installation runs through;
you can just click Run on that, [...] and we're now moving on to the installation
of the IBM Integration Bus itself.
[Installation continues...]
As the launch pad said, this'll take approximately seven minutes depending on
the system.
Select English, then OK [Installation continues...]
[Installation continues...]
And we'll let the wizard run through laying down the software.
We can now start to run through each of the panels in the installation:
accepting prereq terms and conditions;
select the default folders for installation,
unless you have an alternative you'd prefer; now the summary
and we can click the Install, to go and lay down the software.
[Installation continues...]
With laying down of the software complete for the installation of the Integration Bus,
you are presented with the Install Complete panel, and you get a summary of what the
install has done for you.
We can refresh
and see that WebSphere MQ and Integration Bus runtime
have been laid down for us; we're now moving on
to install the next component. The launchpad
has asked us to navigate to the install file
for the Toolkit itself.
[Changes to the Toolkit directory]
And we'll now see that we're in progress installing the Toolkit;
so this will lay down Eclipse and
then lay down the IBM Integration Bus
Toolkit.
[Installation continues...]
So here again, we can we just take the defaults and work our way through the installation panels.
Accept the license terms,
being told about the space that we have available,
and where it will put shared resources, etc, so again we can just accept the
defaults at this point in time.
If you want any additional national languages, you can select at this point;
I'll stick with English. and we're ready to install.
[Installation continues...]
Okay,
we'll let the installation go about its business; nearing the completion of
installation from disc one now.
[Installation continues...]
With the installation of the Toolkit complete, we can choose to launch the Toolkit at this point,
but we will actually continue to move back to the launch pad.
If we hit the Refresh,
we'll see that we now move to the status where
we just have the IBM Integration Bus Explorer
to complete the installation.
[Installation continues...]
Click the OK button to start the installation.
We'll work our way through the various panels; accept the
terms and conditions, I'll stick with the default folder;
we have a summary of our installation,
and we can begin the install. With the installation complete
for the IBM Integration Explorer, we can simply accept the Done button,
and we'll return to the launch pad screen.
A Refresh
shows us that all components are now successfully installed.
