Installing ALBPM 6.0 Enterprise

The first step of the upgrade process is to download and install ALBPM 6.0.

1. Obtain the installation file from the BEA AquaLogic BPM downloads page, and download your desired edition of AquaLogic BPM Enterprise 6.0 for your platform. If you are not registered, you will need to register with BEA in order to proceed with the download.
2. Execute the installation file.
   Note: To use an already installed Java VM, specify the full path to the java command passing the LAX_VM parameter to the installer. You must always specify the location to an existing Java installation if a JVM is not included with the installer (refer to Required Java Virtual Machines for details). Example:

   ALBPMEnterpriseSA603_sol.bin LAX_VM /usr/jdk1.5/bin/java

   The installation program will prepare to proceed with the installation, and display the Introduction page of the installation utility.
3. At the Introduction page, click Next. The Choose Install Folder will appear.
4. In the Choose Install Folder, enter the path or select a folder where you will install Enterprise. If you've entered a path but wish to use the installer's default, click on Restore Default Folder to obtain it. Click Next to proceed. We recommend using the default folder path whenever possible, as this will help simplify support. In Windows or 32-bit Linux, the Pre-Installation Summary page appears, and you should go to step 7. Otherwise, the Choose J2SE 1.5 SDK page appears.
5. In the Choose J2SE 1.5 SDK page, select the Java 1.5 SDK installed in your system that you want Enterprise to use. The installer will list those SDKs that it has detected. If you wish to specify a JDK that is not on the list, you can click on Search for Others for an automatic search, or on Choose Another... to look for the SDK manually. When you have selected the Java 1.5 JDK that you want, click Next. The Pre-Installation Summary page appears.
6. Verify the settings shown in the summary. If you need to make any changes, click Previous to go to the page where you need to make the change. Once you are ready to proceed, click Install. The installation is performed. Once it has finished, the Install Complete page appears.
7. In the Install Complete page, you can choose to exit the installer, to launch the Admin Center program, or to launch the Configuration Wizard. If you exit, you can run the Admin Center at a later time. You can also execute the Configuration Wizard from Admin Center. In all cases, the installation utility will exit.
