Installing service on Linux and UNIX

Apply maintenance updates to WebSphere Message Broker.

Before applying a maintenance update, download the update as described in Applying service to runtime components.
To install the updates that you have downloaded to WebSphere® Message Broker:
  1. Stop the User Name Server and all brokers that are running.
  2. Change to the directory where you downloaded the fix pack file, Unnnnnn.tar.z.
  3. Replace the .Z file with a .tar file, by entering the following command: uncompress -fv filename.tar.Z .
  4. Untar the image and extract all the directories, subdirectories, and files required to apply the update, by entering the following command: tar -xvf filename.tar.
  5. Decide which mode of installation you want to use. The alternatives are explained in Modes of installation and uninstallation.
  6. Depending on the mode of installation you have decided to use, run one of the commands described below, where <installer> is the appropriate installation program for your platform, listed in the table below.
    • To invoke the installation wizard in graphical mode, double-click the file or type its name with no options at a command prompt and press Enter. When you invoke the installation wizard, it guides you through a series of panels where you can make choices about where to install the components, and which components you want to install.
    • Enter one of the following commands to invoke the installation wizard in console mode. Enter this command for a default invocation, <installer> -console. Alternatively, for improved accessibility enter: <installer> -accessibility. Include the absolute or relative path names if you invoke installation from a directory other than the one in which the wizard exists. When you invoke the installation wizard, it guides you through a series of panels where you can make choices about where to install the components, and which components you want to install.
    • The command shown below invokes the installation wizard to complete a typical installation with all default settings. You must include the -G licenseAccepted=true flag on the invocation, to ensure the license is accepted. <installer> -silent -G licenseaccept=true. Include the absolute or relative path names if you invoke installation from a directory other than the one in which the wizard exists. If you want to specify non-default settings, you must include a response file on the invocation. for more details of how to do this, and how to create and edit a response file to define your requirements, see Using response files.
