Installing with the Custom installation path on Windows systems
To install Tivoli Directory Server 6.3 on a Windows system
using the Custom installation path:
Be sure that you are logged on as a member of the Administrators
group.
On the computer where you are installing Tivoli Directory Server, stop any programs
that are running and close all windows. If you have open windows,
the initial Tivoli Directory Server installation window might be hidden behind other
windows.
If you are installing from a DVD:
Insert the DVD in your DVD drive.
Go to the DVD drive, and then go to the tds folder.
If you are installing from downloaded .zip files, go to the
folder where you downloaded all the zip files. Uncompress all the
.zip files to the tdsV6.3 folder, and then go
to the tdsV6.3\tds folder.
Double-click the tdsV6.3\tds\install_tds.exe icon.
If
you prefer, you can use the command line to begin installation and
specify a temporary directory other than the one specified by the
TEMP environment variable. To use this option, go to the appropriate
directory (from step 3) and type the following
at a command prompt:
install_tds -is:tempdir directory
where directory is the directory you want to use for
temporary space. Be sure that you have at least 255 MB of free space
in this directory. If you are installing any of the corequisite products (Embedded WebSphere® Application Server
or DB2®) be sure that you also
have an additional 150 MB in the directory specified by the TEMP environment
variable.
For example:
install_tds -is:tempdir "c:\My Documents\temp"
The
language window is displayed.
Note:
If the installation
program exits without displaying the language window, it might be
because there is not enough space in the directory specified by the
TEMP environment variable or the directory you specified for temporary
space. Be sure that you have at least 255 MB of free space in this
directory.
Select the language you want to use during Tivoli Directory Server installation.
Click OK.
Note:
This is the language
used in the installation program, not in Tivoli Directory Server. The language used
in Tivoli Directory Server is determined by the language pack you install.
On the Welcome window, click Next.
After reading the Software license agreement, select I
accept the terms in the license agreement if you are willing
to accept the agreement. Click Next.
If you have any components already installed, they are displayed
with their corresponding version levels. Click Next.
To install in the default directory, click Next.
You can specify a different directory by clicking Browse or
typing the directory path you want. The directory will be created
if it does not exist. (The default installation directory is C:\Program Files\IBM\LDAP\V6.3.)
Notes:
If you have already installed one or more language packs, the
installation location is set to the path where you installed the language
packs, and you are not asked where you want to install.
Be sure that the installation location is not
the same as the path where another version of the client is installed.
Do not use special characters, such as hyphen (-) and period (.)
in the name of the installation directory. For example, use ldapdir rather than ldap-dir or ldap.dir.
Do not use national language characters
in the name of the installation directory.
Click Custom and then click Next.
If
the window in the following step is very slow to be displayed, you
might have a slow network drive attached. You can detach the network
drive and see if the window is displayed more quickly.
A window showing the following components for installation is
displayed:
Tivoli® Global Security
Kit
DB2
Embedded WebSphere Application
Server
C Client 6.3
Java Client 6.3
Web Administration Tool 6.3
Proxy Server 6.3
Server 6.3
You can choose to reinstall the server, the client, or the Web Administration Tool if
they were previously installed.
Notes:
If a corequisite product (such as DB2)
is not displayed and it is not already installed on the system, be
sure that you downloaded the .zip file for that product and extracted
it in the same directory where you extracted the other Tivoli Directory Server .zip
files. (If you do not want to install that corequisite product, you
need not download the .zip file, but be aware that it will not be
displayed on the window that shows the installable components.)
The installpath\bin, installpath\sbin,
and installpath\lib directories are not added
to the PATH environment variable. This allows Tivoli Directory Server 6.3 to coexist
with Tivoli Directory Server 6.0, 6.1, and 6.2.
If the Web Administration Tool is installed, Directory Services Markup Language
(DSML) files are also copied to your computer. See Appendix M. Installing and configuring DSML for
information about installing and configuring DSML.
If the Web Administration Tool is installed, a Web application server is required
to run the tool, and Embedded WebSphere Application
Server is installed and configured for you. If Tivoli Directory Server 6.0 is installed
with version 5.1.1 of Embedded WebSphere Application
Server, Tivoli Directory Server 6.1 is installed with version 6.1 of Embedded WebSphere Application Server,
or Tivoli Directory Server 6.2 is installed with version 6.1 of Embedded WebSphere Application Server,
the InstallShield GUI installation program automatically migrates
your configuration to the version provided with Tivoli Directory Server 6.3. If
you want to use another WebSphere application
server, you must select a Web application server.
When
Embedded WebSphere Application
Server is installed and an application (such as the Web Administration
tool )
is installed into Embedded WebSphere Application
Server, the Embedded WebSphere Application
Server for that application is also installed as a service, and the
service is automatically started.
This window also indicates the amount of disk space
required and available on the selected drive.
Be sure that
the components you want to install are selected, and click Next.
If you selected Server 6.3 but not DB2 and there
are multiple supported copies of DB2 on
the system, you are asked to select the version of DB2 you want to use with Tivoli Directory Server 6.3.
If you selected DB2,
a window is displayed prompting you to enter a Windows user ID and password for the DB2 system ID. On the window:
Type the user ID. This user ID must not be
the user ID you intend to use as the owner of the directory server
instance.
If you are not using an existing user ID, DB2 creates the user ID you specify with the password
you type. This is the preferred method.
Note:
If you are
creating a new user ID and your system has "Password must meet
complexity requirements" enabled, be sure that the password you
supply meets the complexity requirements. If it does not, installation
will fail. See the Windows documentation
for information about complexity requirements.
If
you are using an existing Windows user
ID, it must be a member of the Administrators group.
Type the password, and then type the password again for verification.
(If you are using an existing Windows user
ID, be sure that your password is correct. Otherwise, DB2 does not install correctly.)
Click Next.
The Web Administration Tool 6.3 application require a Web application server. If
you selected Web Administration Tool 6.3 but
you did not select Embedded WebSphere Application Server, a window is displayed
for the application you selected asking you to specify a Web application
server into which to deploy the application. You can do one of the
following:
Click Detected WebSphere Application Servers and then select
a WebSphere Application
Server that is installed on the system and detected by the InstallShield
GUI installation program. The application will be deployed into this
version of WebSphere Application
Server.
Click Custom location of WebSphere Application Server to specify a path
to a version of WebSphere Application
Server in a different location. The application will be deployed into
this version of WebSphere Application
Server.
Click Do not specify. I will manually deploy
at a later time. You must deploy the application into a WebSphere Application Server
before you can use the application.
The installation program now has enough information to begin installing.
A summary window displays the components you selected and the locations
where the selected components will be installed. Click Back to
change any of your selections. Click Install to
begin installation.
Note:
After installation has begun, do
not try to cancel the installation. If you inadvertently cancel the
installation, see the information about recovering from a failed installation
in the IBM® Tivoli Directory Server version
6.3 Problem Determination Guide before you attempt to reinstall.
Click Finish.
Notes:
If you are asked if you want to restart your computer now or later,
select the option you want and click Finish.
(You might need to restart your system to complete Tivoli Directory Server installation.
You cannot use Tivoli Directory Server until this is completed.)
If your computer
is restarted, log in using the same user ID that you used to install Tivoli Directory Server.
If you installed DB2, the DB2 First Steps GUI might be started.
You can go through the DB2 First
Steps or close this GUI.
A license subdirectory is created in the directory where Tivoli Directory Server is
installed. This subdirectory contains Tivoli Directory Server license files in all provided
languages.
If you installed a server, the Instance Administration Tool automatically starts so
that you can create a directory server instance and complete configuration.
Before you can use the server, you must:
Create a directory server instance.
Set the administrator DN and password for the instance.
If you installed and plan to use the full directory server, configure
the database that will store the directory data. (The proxy server
does not require a database.)
To create a directory server instance, use the instructions in Creating a directory server instance. You can set the administrator DN and password and
configure the database during the instance creation process.
To make changes to your configuration at a later time, see Configuration for more information about using the Configuration Tool.
If any errors occurred during installation, instance creation,
or configuration, see the information IBM Tivoli Directory
Server version 6.3 Problem Determination Guide for information
about recovering from these errors.
