Augmenting deployment manager profiles using the Profile Management Tool

You can use the Profile Management Tool to augment an existing WebSphere® Application Server deployment manager profile.

Before you begin

Note: PMT is not available on Linux on Power LE. Use the BPMConfig command to create or augment profiles.

Remember to shut down any servers associated with a profile you plan to augment.

About this task

Restriction: You cannot augment a deployment manager profile where the default WebSphere VMM user registry has been changed, for example, to using LDAP. Also, you cannot augment a deployment manager profile unless administrative security has been enabled.

Procedure

  1. Use one of the following methods to start the Profile Management Tool.
    • Start the tool from the Quick Start console.
    • Click Linux_operating_system_menus_to_access_programs > IBM > your_product > Profile Management Tool.
    • Run the command installation_root/bin/ProfileManagement/pmt.sh.
  2. Shut down any servers associated with a profile you plan to augment.
  3. On the Welcome page, click Launch Profile Management Tool or select the Profile Management Tool tab.
  4. On the Profiles tab, select the profile that you want to augment and click Augment. If you augment a WebSphere Application Server profile, it must be from the version of WebSphere Application Server on which IBM® Business Process Manager is installed. The Augment button cannot be selected unless a profile can be augmented. The Augment Selection page opens in a separate window.
  5. On the Augment Selection page, select the IBM BPM deployment manager augmentation template. Then click Next.
  6. Required: On the Administrative Security page, enter values for the User name, Password, and Confirm password. The user entered must exist and must have administrative privileges. The Next button is enabled only after you enter the values.
  7. On the Profile Augmentation Summary page, review the information. Click Augment to augment the profile or Back to change the characteristics of the profile.
  8. On the Profile Augmentation Complete page, review the information. To proceed to the Quick Start console, make sure that Launch Quick Start console is selected and click Finish.

What to do next

  • Add managed-node profiles to be managed by the deployment manager, and then configure the deployment environment.
