You can install the application server before you
install Rational® Publishing Engine or
after. This documentation presents installing the application server
as a preinstallation task instead of a postinstallation task so users
who are able to use the automatic deployment of the remote applications
can do so.
If you are installing the Reporting data services
application, you must install Apache Tomcat or a 32-bit version of WebSphere® Application Server.
Java™ 6 is required
for deploying Rational Publishing Engine on
any application server.
