17 Install IBM WebSphere Application Server (9 of 9) 17

18 Install WebSphere Application Server silently IBM Installation Manager also provides command line interface The command line interface can be used for basic install, modify, update, and uninstall operations IBM Installation Manager also has the capability to record an installation response file The install operations can be rerun with the command line interface and the installation response file. 18

19 IBM WebSphere Application Server sample installation response file You can create a responsefile with the command: IBMIM -record <responsefile> -skipinstall <agentdatalocation> ation.nd.doc/ae/tins_wasv85_sample_response.html 19

21 Agenda Installation Manager install WebSphere Application Server install WebSphere Profile Overview Profile Management Tool 21

22 WebSphere Profile Overview Background Terminology What is a profile? Types of profiles Common Usage Scenarios Stand Alone Application Server(s) Difficult to administer when more than one standalone servers are used Cell with multiple nodes on single machine Cell with multiple nodes on two machines Profile Directory Structure 22

23 What is a profile? A profile is a set of user configuration files separate from the install of WebSphere Application Server You can have multiple profiles with one WAS installation. This differs from WLS where you need to have a separate install for each server instance. 23

24 Types of Profiles 24

25 Usage Scenario: Stand Alone Application Server 25

26 Usage Scenario: Cell with multiple nodes on single machine 26

27 Usage Scenario: Cell with multiple nodes on two machines dmgrcell 27

28 Profile Directory Structure 28

29 Agenda Installation Manager install WebSphere Application Server install WebSphere Profile Overview Profile Management Tool 29

30 Profile Management Tool (PMT) Overview of features Profile creation using GUI Profile creation using command line 30

31 Overview of features To provide user interface for profile creation and augmentation for various topologies To provide default values and validation against user inputs Available from WebSphere Application Server installation (embedded) or a separate WebSphere customization toolbox (WCT) installation (stand-alone) Server runtime performance tuning option is available during profile creation Standard for general purpose Peak for infrequent application updates Development for less powerful hardware and frequent application updates Profile Management Tool (PMT) for a development environment with predefined configuration parameters can be launched at the end of WebSphere Application Server installation 31

32 Profile creation using GUI (1 of 3) 32

33 Profile creation using GUI (3 of 4) 33

34 Profile creation using GUI (3 of 4) 34

35 Profile creation using GUI (3 of 4) 35

36 Profile creation using GUI (4 of 4) 36

37 Advanced Option: Server runtime performance tuning Recommended to run Performance Tuning scripts also after the resources are defined. 37

38 Profile creation using command line Profiles can be created and managed from the command line using the command manageprofiles Sample usage is as follows: manageprofiles -create -profilename Default01 -templatepath default -startingport Manageprofiles -help InfoCenter has details on all the available parameters 38

39 Enabling Clusters At least one Application Server and one profile with deployment management must exist to enable clustering
