WebSphere brand IBM WebSphere Telecom Web Services Server, Version 7.1

Installing Telecom Web Services Server base components using the interactive installer

The Telecom Web Services Server (TWSS) base installer guides you through a set of interactive panels to install the TWSS base components.

Before you begin
Ensure that the following requirements are met:
Note: Ensure that your application server node names do not contain the hyphen (-) character. If necessary, you can use the WebSphere Application Server renameNode command to change the names.
About this task
The TWSS base installer installs the following features and components:
  • Access Gateway
    • Runtime components
    • Access Gateway applications
  • Service Platform components
    • Runtime components
    • Parlay Connector
    • TWSS Administration Console
    • TWSS Parlay Administration Console
    • Common Component Applications
    • WSDL
  • Service Policy Manager
    • Service Policy Manager runtime component
    • Service Policy Manager console
  • First Steps script (for configuring your system after the installation)

Use the TWSS base installer on the WebSphere server. The installer copies the required database DDL files, along with the features selected, to the target server. After installation, the First Steps script will use the copied DDL files to configure the required databases on the database server.

You can simplify the installation by running the Access Gateway and Service Platform components on the same version of the WebSphere Application Server.

The TWSS base installer is organized so that the three major components (Access Gateway, Service Policy Manager, and Service Platform components) can be installed in any order.

To install the TWSS base components, complete the following steps:

  1. Stop the servers, nodes, and deployment manager:
    1. Stop the servers. Run the following command:
      • AIX was_profile_root/bin/stopServer.sh server_name -username user_name -password password
      • Linux was_profile_root/bin/stopServer.sh server_name -username user_name -password password
      • Solaris was_profile_root/bin/stopServer.sh server_name -username user_name -password password
      Note: The user_name and password parameters are required only when security is enabled.

      Where:

      • The was_profile_root path contains the name of the application server profile (for example, AppSrv01).
      • server_name is name of the application server.
      • user_name represents your WebSphere Application Server administrator user ID.
      • password represents the password associated with your user_name.
    2. Stop the nodes. Run the following command:
      • AIX was_profile_root/bin/stopNode.sh -username user_name -password password
      • Linux was_profile_root/bin/stopNode.sh -username user_name -password password
      • Solaris was_profile_root/bin/stopNode.sh -username user_name -password password
      Note: The user_name and password parameters are required only when security is enabled.

      Where:

      • The was_profile_root path contains the name of a federated node profile (for example, Custom01).
      • user_name represents your WebSphere Application Server administrator user ID.
      • password represents the password associated with your user_name.
    3. Stop the deployment manager. Run the following command:
      • AIX was_profile_root/bin/stopManager.sh -username user_name -password password
      • Linux was_profile_root/bin/stopManager.sh -username user_name -password password
      • Solaris was_profile_root/bin/stopManager.sh -username user_name -password password
      Note: The user_name and password parameters are required only when security is enabled.

      Where:

      • The was_profile_root path contains the name of the deployment manager profile (for example, Dmgr01).
      • user_name represents your WebSphere Application Server administrator user ID.
      • password represents the password associated with your user_name.
  2. Navigate to the /TWSS_Install directory on the CD.
  3. Launch the base installation wizard by issuing the following command: ./setup

    The installation process always creates an install trace file in the /tmp directory TWSS-base_InstallTrace.log. This file is helpful in determining any install problems and is required by the product support team for any install-related problems. After the installation is done, this trace file is moved to the was_root/logs directory.

    A separate log file is also created under the was_root/logs directory: TWSS-base_InstallLog.log. The log file is translated to the user-selected language during the installation.

  4. The Welcome panel displays English as the default. Click OK.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Read the license agreement. Then select I accept the terms in the license agreement, and click Next.
  7. Review the information in the Product information panel and click Next.
  8. Select a WebSphere Application Server instance from the list.
  9. Click Next.
  10. In the Features panel select the components you want to install, and click Next.
  11. Verify your selections in the Summary Information panel. Use the Back button to go back and make changes if necessary. When you are satisfied with your selections, click Next.
  12. When the installation is complete, click Finish to exit the wizard.
What to do next
