If you are installing the IBM Integration Toolkit on Windows, you can use the LaunchPad.
For more information about using the Windows Launchpad, see Installing by using the Windows Launchpad.
Also,
you can install IBM Integration Bus components
and prerequisite products in silent mode on Linux, UNIX, and Windows. For more information, see Installing IBM Integration Bus components and prerequisite products by using the sample script file.
If
you are installing the IBM Integration Toolkit on
a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0
x86_64 (64-bit) computer, you must install the 32-bit versions of
operating system libraries before you run the IBM Installation Manager. For full instructions,
see the following technote on the IBM Support
Portal: 
Unable to install Installation Manager on RHEL 6.0 (64-bit)
If
you do not want to use the Windows LaunchPad or
the sample script file, complete the following steps.
- Check the product readme file, readme.html,
for updates to these installation instructions. The product readme
file includes information pertinent to all components and platforms,
and is maintained in US English on the product readmes web
page. Translated readme files are available on the documentation
FTP site.
- Check that your computer has enough memory and disk space
for your installation. Requirements for memory and disk space depend
on the installation operating system, and on the IBM Integration Bus components that you are installing.
For more information, see Memory and disk space requirements.
- Before installing IBM Integration Toolkit on Linux, check that the default permissions
are set correctly by running the following command under the user
ID that will perform the installation:
umask
A
value of 0022 should be returned, indicating the
permissions are correctly set. If any other value is returned, set
the correct permissions by running the following command:
umask 0022
- Decide whether you want to install the IBM Integration Toolkit from a server or if you
want to install the IBM Integration Toolkit locally.
These choices are described in Accessing DVDs for DVDs and
for installation images that you can download from Passport Advantage®.
- Decide whether you want to use the installation wizard
graphical interface to install the IBM Integration Toolkit or if you want to complete
a silent installation. For more information about these
interfaces, see How to install and uninstall the IBM Integration Toolkit. If you decide
to use the installation wizard graphical interface, continue with
these instructions. Alternatively, to use a silent installation, see Installing the IBM Integration Toolkit in silent mode.
In either scenario, the installation
of the IBM Integration Toolkit is controlled
by the IBM Installation Manager.
If the Installation Manager is not already installed, it is installed
before the IBM Integration Toolkit is installed.
- Start the installation wizard graphical
interface by navigating to the Integration_Toolkit directory
and, depending on user ID authority and platform, run the following
batch file:
- If your user ID has root or administrator authority:
- Linux on x86: installToolkit.sh
- Windows: installToolkit.bat
- If your user ID does not have root or administrator authority:
- Linux on x86: installToolkit.sh
-nonAdmin
- Windows: installToolkit.bat
-nonAdmin
The installation wizard checks your system locale
setting. If the locale setting listed in Multicultural support is
supported, the wizard continues in this locale. If the current setting
is not supported, the wizard continues in US English. This language
is used for installation only, and does not affect other processes
on your computer. The Installation Manager starts
and the Install Packages window opens. The installation
wizard is preconfigured to install both the Installation Manager and
the IBM Integration Toolkit, therefore the IBM Integration Toolkit packages are already selected
in this window. If the Installation Manager has not been installed
on this computer, its packages are also selected and cannot be cleared.
- Click Next to continue. The Software
License Agreement window opens.
- Read the license agreement, select I accept
the terms in the license agreements, and click Next.
If you do not accept the license, the installation
wizard ends. If you have not installed the Installation Manager on
this computer, or if you have installed the Installation Manager but
have not yet installed any product that is managed by the Installation
Manager, the Shared Directory window opens. Continue
with step 9. Otherwise, because
the shared resources directory has already been defined, the Package
group directory window opens, so you can continue with
step 10.
- If the IBM Integration Toolkit is not the first product
that is installed by the Installation Manager, you might not be prompted
to specify the shared resources directory. If you are prompted, specify
the location of the shared resources directory that is used by all
the products that are managed by the Installation Manager. The
following directories show the default locations:
- Linux on x86: /opt/IBM/SDPShared/.
- Windows: C:\Program Files\IBM\SDPShared\ for
32-bit editions, or C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\SDPShared\v.r for
64-bit editions.
To specify a different location, type over the default location,
or click Browse.
The shared resources
directory must not contain another installation of IBM Integration Toolkit, or other files or products.
If
the Installation Manager is not yet installed, you must also specify
its installation directory. The following directories show the default
locations:
- Linux on x86: /opt/IBM/InstallationManager/.
- Windows: C:\Program
Files\IBM\InstallationManager\ for 32-bit editions, or C:\Program
Files (x86)\IBM\InstallationManager\ for 64-bit editions.
To specify a different location, type over the default location,
or click Browse.
Click Next.
The Package group directory window opens. You can create a new package
group for the IBM Integration Toolkit, which
requires you to specify an installation directory, or you can choose
an existing package group to share the resources.
For more
information about installing the IBM Integration Toolkit into
a package group, and for further reference information about Package
groups, see IBM Installation Manager.
- If you want to use the IBM Integration Toolkit in a locale other than US
English, select additional support from the list presented. English
is always selected and installed; you cannot clear this selection.
If you select one or more alternative locales, documentation and properties
files for all supported languages are installed. Click Next to
continue. The Summary window opens.
- Check your choices and click Back if
you want to make further changes to your responses on any of the previous
windows. This window displays guidance information for the space that
is required for the packages that you are about to install and indicates
that your disk has sufficient space.
Click Next to
start installation. The Install Progress window opens.
- The features that you are installing, their associated
directories, and the locales that you have selected display for information.
A progress bar displays, which you can use to check the status of
the installation. When the installation has finished, the Completion
window opens.
- The wizard displays an indication of success or failure,
and lists the products and options that have been installed. Click View
Log File to check the results of the installation.
On Windows, you can
indicate that you want the IBM Integration Toolkit to
start when you click Finish to close the wizard.
This option is not available on Linux on x86 because
you might want to complete verification while logged on as a different
user ID that does not have root authority.
- If you experience problems during installation, see Resolving problems when installing.
- If you installed IBM Integration Toolkit without root or administrator
authority, switch to a user with root or administrator authority and
run the following script file from the IBM Integration Toolkit home directory to complete
the installation:
- Linux on x86: <IIT90_Home>/wmbt/postconfig/postInstall_admin.sh
- Windows: <IIT90_Home>\wmbt\postconfig\postInstall_admin.bat
When you have completed the installation,
see Verifying your IBM Integration Bus installation, Configuring your brokers to conform to your license,
and Start and main menu updates after installation.
If you do not install optional locales at this time,
you can install them later in the following way:
- On Linux on x86, navigate
to the /eclipse directory within the Installation
Manager installation directory, and start the Installation Manager
program IBMIM.
(You cannot use the main menu entries
unless you are already logged on as root; the menu item does not provide
an option to become root, and root authority is required for all installation
tasks.)
- On Windows, click to start the Installation Manager, and click Modify
Packages to change your installation.
If
you prefer to use the command line, navigate to the \eclipse directory
within the Installation Manager installation directory, and start
the Installation Manager program IBMIM.exe.
