Installing the IBM Integration ODBC Database Extender

To download the package externally, select IBM Integration Bus on the WebSphere® MQ SupportPacs web page and locate the package file.

The package file is called install-ie02.bin on all platforms.

This package must be run with the same privileges (typically root) that you used when installing IBM Integration Bus. The default IBM Integration ODBC Database Extender installation directory is /opt/ibm/IE02/2.0.1.

• Graphical
• Console
• Silent

1. Graphical. From within the directory where you downloaded the package file, run the following command:

   ./install-ie02.bin

   The installer launches within a separate window and guides you through the installation process. However, if the installer cannot launch in Graphical mode, it launches in console mode.

2. Console. From within the directory where you downloaded the package file, run the following command:

   ./install-ie02.bin –i console

   The installer launches, and guides you through the installation process from within the same console as the command was run.

3. Silent. When specifying a silent installation, a response file is required to define the required responses to the options provided by the installer. See following example file:

   # This file was built by the Replay feature of InstallAnywhere.
   # It contains variables that were set by Panels, Consoles or Custom 
   # Code.
   
   #Has the license been accepted
   #-----------------------------
   LICENSE_ACCEPTED=TRUE
   
   #Choose Install Folder
   #---------------------
   USER_INSTALL_DIR=/opt/ibm/IE02/2.0.1

   Note the above example specifies that the license has been accepted. By using this example script you are accepting the terms of the license agreement.

   The response file must be named installer.properties and must be located in the same directory as the IBM Integration ODBC Database Extender installer.

   Run the following command from within the directory where you downloaded the IBM Integration ODBC Database Extender: ./install-ie02.bin –i silent

   After the installation has completed, review the installation log that is located under the installation path specified during the installation. The file name of the log is: WebSphere_Message_Broker_ODBC_Database_Extender_InstallLog.log.

   If you are installing over a previous installation (within the same installation directory), the previous installation is silently uninstalled before the new version is installed.
