Collect the Installation Values

Collect the Installation Values

Before you run the installer, collect the installation values. The installer will prompt you for information about your application server, database management system, and other components. The best practice is to print out these tables and add the values for your environment.

Application Server: IBM WebSphere

Use the following table to collect the WebSphere details that are required for the installation:
Property
Description
Default value
Server instance 1 value
WebSphere Installation Directory
The location where WebSphere is installed.
-
Is WebSphere security enabled?
If WebSphere security is enabled, select
Yes
 and provide the user name and password.
No
Server Name
Name of the WebSphere application server on which you want to deploy the Hub Server.
In a clustered environment, enter one of the cluster server names and its corresponding Bootstrap port and SOAP connector port information.
-
Bootstrap Port
Bootstrap port number that is used by the server that you specify.
To find the port information, go to the WebSphere administrative console, and then click
Application servers
<server name>
Ports
.
2809
SOAP Connector Port
SOAP connector port number that is used by the server that you specify.
To find the port information, go to the WebSphere administrative console, and then click
Application servers
<server name>
Ports
.
8880
Profile Name
Name of the WebSphere profile that contains the WebSphere application server on which you want to deploy the Hub Server.
-
User Name
Name of a WebSphere user that has administrative privileges.
admin
Password
Password of the WebSphere administrative user.

In a clustered environment, add details for the other WebSphere instances to the following table:
Property
Server instance 2 value
Server instance 3 value
Server instance 4 value
WebSphere Installation Directory
Is WebSphere security enabled?
Server Name
Bootstrap Port
SOAP Connector Port
Profile Name
User Name
Password

Database: Microsoft SQL Server

Use the following table to collect the Microsoft SQL Server details that are required for the installation:
Property
Description
Default value
