To upgrade an existing IBM® XDMS version
6.2 to version 7.0,
run the installation program. The installation program detects the
presence of the existing system and performs the necessary upgrades.
Before you begin
You must have met the following requirements:
- WebSphere® Application Server
Network Deployment version 7.0.0.1 or 6.1.0.21 is
installed with a deployment manager and at least one managed node.
- You have federated all nodes into the deployment manager cell.
- A WebSphere user account
repository is created. A federated LDAP repository is recommended.
See the WebSphere Application Server 7.0 Information Center for
more instructions.
- IBM DB2® Enterprise
Server Edition 9.5 FixPak 1 has
been installed along with the license for pureXML®.
- The IBM DB2 Enterprise
Server Edition 9.5 FixPak 1 client
is in the same path on every WebSphere Application Server node
in the cluster. This allows the WebSphere variables
for the JDBC driver to be declared at the Cell level.
- Clusters are created for each IBM XDMS application
you plan to install.
About this task
To install IBM XDMS and the XDMS enterprise applications,
perform the following steps at the deployment manager node
- Change directories (cd)
to the CD-ROM drive.
- Issue the following command to launch
the interactive installer:
./setup
- Select I accept the terms
of the License Agreement.
- Click Next. The installer checks to verify that the correct version
of WebSphere Application Server is
installed and returns a list of qualified WebSphere Application Server installations.
- Click Next.
- Select a WebSphere Application Server installation.
- Click Next. The installer looks for an installation of the OSGi bundle
for IBM XDMS version 7.0.
If none are found, the installation configuration screen displays
with the XDMS Core Files selected.
- Click Next.
- Select a WebSphere Application Server installation.
- Click Next.
- Enter your WebSphere Application Server security
information.
- Type your WebSphere Application Server fully
qualified host name.
- Type the SOAP port address for your WebSphere Application Server.
- If security is enabled, select The WebSphere
Environment is secure.
- Type an administrative user ID.
- Type the password for the administrative user ID.
- Click Next.
- Select the enablers you are installing from the list of
available enablers. For each enabler you select the installer
presents a scope selection screen where you must select the proper
cluster or server for the application to be installed to. These instructions
assume you have selected Shared List and Presence Rules for installation
in a clustered environment.
- Click Next.
- Select the target scope for Shared
List, for example WasScope[type]:ServerCluster[cluster]:SharedListCluster.
- Click Next.
- Select the target scope for Presence
Rules, for example WasScope[type]:ServerCluster[cluster]:PresenceRulesCluster.
- Click Next. The Pre-Installation summary panel appears.
- Click Install.
- Perform these installation steps again on any remote nodes,
installing only the XDMS core files.
Note: If there are
multiple nodes on the same machine as the deployment manager, you do
not need to rerun the installer on that machine.
- Start the servers for the installed application.
Note: During the startup, you can safely ignore any error messages
that refer to problems with the UsageRecordWriter.properties file.
