Stand-alone: Performing post-installation tasks on AIX®

Depending on your business needs, there are additional tasks that you can run post-installation to configure your stand-alone environment.

Prerequisites

Preparing your AIX operating system in a stand-alone environment

Installing WebSphere Portal on AIX

1. Optional: After the WebSphere® Portal installation completes successfully, run the ./ConfigEngine.sh configure-express -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasPassword=password task, from the wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine directory, if you want to enable the sample IBM® Web Content Manager content, such as internet and intranet sample sites.
   Restriction: Run the configure-express task before you configure your database, user registry, context root, security. If you ran any tasks other than the installation task, do not run this task.
   Note: See Exploring the sample site templates for tutorials on how to use the sample content; a link to the file is provided at the end of this document.
   The sample content includes
   • Creates a group that is called contentAuthors; members of this group are given privileges to create content in the sample Internet and intranet sites. Go to the Administration area and then click Access > Users and Groups.
   • Creates two new Web Content Manager Libraries: "Internet web content 8.0.0" and "Intranet web Content 8.0.0". Go to the Administration area and then click Portal Content > Web Content Libraries.
   • Adds a portlet filter and applies the filter to various portlets in the sample Internet and intranet sites. You can see the definition of the filter in the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console and examining the custom resources under the Environment area.
   • Creates two new theme policies: InternetStyle and IntranetStyle. These styles are applied to sample Internet and intranet sites. Go to Theme Customizer and then select the style.
   • Creates several portlet clones of the Web Content Manager rendering portlet. These portlet clones are used on sample Internet and intranet sites.
   • Creates two virtual portals with context roots of wps/portal/intranet and wps/portal/internet. These virtual portals are the sample Internet and intranet sites. Go to http://yourserver:yourport/wps/portal/internet and http://yourserver:yourport/wps/portal/intranet to access them.
   • Creates several sample credential slots, including "Default slot for email", "Default slot for Feeds", "Default slot for Miscellaneous", "Default slot for web clipping", and "Default slot for web content management". Go to the Administration area and then click Access > Credential Vault > Manage System Vault Slots.
2. Optional: If you ran the configure-express task, the owner of the items in the web content libraries that contain the Internet and intranet Site Template content is listed as uid=wpsadmin,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealm. To update the owner information for these items to correspond to your portal administrator ID, complete the following steps:
   1. Edit the wp_profile_root/PortalServer/wcm/shared/app/config/wcmservices/MemberFixerModule.properties file.
   2. Add the following lines to the file:

      uid=wpsadmin,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealm -> portal_admin_DN
      cn=contentauthors,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealm -> content_authors_group_DN

      Where portal_admin_DN is the distinguished name of the portal administrator and content_authors_group_DN is the distinguished name of the content authors group that is used during LDAP configuration.

   3. Save your changes and close the file.
   4. Run the ./ConfigEngine.sh express-memberfixer -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasPassword=password task, which is in the wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine directory.
