Install the base
version and the required fix packs as specified in the system requirements.
Warning:If you installed a WebSphere Application Server interim
fix for PM44303 or a fix pack that contains PM44303, a potential security
exposure exists with some versions of WebSphere Application Server.
You must install a fix that is specific to your version of WebSphere Application Server and
your operating system. For more information, see the Potential security exposure from IBM WebSphere Application
Server impacts Rational Publishing Engine technote.
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.
To take advantage of automatic deployment of the remote
applications, you must install a 32-bit version of WebSphere Application Server before
you install Rational Publishing Engine.
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.
