Sun Java System Portal Server 7.1 Configuration Guide

ProcedureTo install Portal Server on Node 3

  1. Install Application Server's node agent and command-line interface and Access Manager SDK in the Configure Now mode using the Java ES installer.


    Note –

    Configure the Application Server's node agent to use node1.domain-name as the Domain Application Server.

    The Java ES installer creates a node agent, node3.


  2. Install Portal Server in the Configure Later mode using the Java ES installer.

  3. Configure Access Manager SDK to use Access Manager Directory Server installed on node1.domain-name.

  4. Start the node agent.

    ApplicationServer_base/SUNWappserver/sbin/asadmin start-node-agent --user admin node3

  5. Create an Application Server instance, ps2–80.

    ApplicationServer_base/SUNWappserver/sbin/asadmin create-instance --user admin --cluster pscluster --nodeagent node3 --systemproperties HTTP_LISTENER_PORT=80 ps2-80 --host node2

  6. Start the Application Server instance.

  7. Delete ps_util.jar Classpath from the Application Server instance.

    Creating a Portal Server instance verifies whether the Application Server instance is not already been configured for a Portal Server instance. It does it by checking the ps_util.jar class path. For instances that are part of Application Server cluster the configuration and applications are automatically deployed. So, the create-instance sub command fails.

    1. Log in to Application Server.

    2. Click Configuration > pscluster-config > JVM Settings.

    3. In the Classpath Suffix list box, delete PortalServer_base/SUNWportal/lib/ps_util.jar.

  8. Configure the common agent container by modifying the example2.xml file with the deployment values.

    PortalServer_base/SUNWportal/bin/psconfig --config example2.xml

  9. Create a Webcontainer.properties.ps2 file by modifying the Webcontainer.properties.SJSAS81 file with the newly create instance parameters, such as host, port, scheme, and file paths.

    The Webcontainer.properties.SJSAS81 file is located at the PortalServer_base/SUNWportal/template directory.

  10. Create a Portal Server instance in the newly created Application Server instance.

    PortalServer_base/SUNWportal/bin/psadmin create-instance -u amadmin -f password --portal myPortal --instance ps2-80 --webconfig Webcontainer.properties.ps2

  11. Add the com.sun.portal.instance.id to the server1–ps1 instance.

    ApplicationServer_base/SUNWappserver/sbin/asadmin create-system-properties --user admin --target ps2-80 com.sun.portal.instance.id=ps2-80 --host node1

    ps2–80 is the name of the default instance specified in the configuration file.
