Sun Java Enterprise System Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows 

Chapter 4
Installation Scenarios

This chapter provides guidelines for some common Sun Java™ Enterprise System (Java ES) installation scenarios. These are not literal procedures, but instead provide the high-level steps required to implement the installation examples presented here.

The single-session scenarios describe typical steps to install one or a number of Java ES components on a single host in a single installation session. An evaluation example is included.

The remaining scenarios describe situations where multiple installation sessions are performed on multiple hosts, for a variety of solutions.


Note

The Schema 1 example is the only scenario based on LDAP Schema 1. The other examples in this chapter are based on Schema 2.


This chapter contains the following sections:


Single-Session Installation Examples

The following examples apply to installation on a single host in a single session:

Evaluation Example

An evaluation installation is generally considered a trial deployment, a quick installation to see how things go. The Java ES components are installed on a single host in a single installation session. This example uses the graphical interface and the Quick Configure option.

The general steps for this type of installation include the following:

  1. Starting the Java ES graphical installer
  2. Chapter 5, "Installing Sun Java Enterprise System Using the Installation Wizard"

  3. At component selection, selecting ‘Sun Java Enterprise System’
  4. The installer verifies the software on your system and provides guidance if incompatibilities are identified.

  5. Verifying the installation directories
  6. Selecting the appropriate configuration option
  7. Accepting the configuration defaults when they are offered
  8. To use non-default information, review the appropriate configuration tables in Chapter 6, "Gathering Configuration Information for Configure Later Option".

  9. Viewing the Installation Summary and Log
  10. Complete the post-installation configuration
  11. Chapter 7, "Post-installation Configuration for Configure Later Option".

  12. Starting the components
  13. Refer Chapter 9, "Starting and Stopping Components" to view the Startup procedures.

For a detailed example of performing this type of deployment, including establishing an initial user and setting up single sign-on, refer to the Java Enterprise System Deployment Example Series: Evaluation Scenario (http://docs.sun.com/doc/819-0059).

Access Manager Only Example

Identity Management Example

Java ES implements unified identity by having only a single user entry that all components use for authentication. This example provides guidelines for installing Directory Server and Access Manager to implement identity management.

Access Manager requires Directory Server, but not necessarily a local copy. Access Manager also requires a local web container.

For a full scenario showing how to establish an initial user and implementing single sign-on, refer to the Java Enterprise System Deployment Example Series: Small Scale Communications Scenario(http://docs.sun.com/doc/819-0060).


Communication and Collaboration Services Example

This example uses most of the Java ES components to implement communication and collaboration services. For large deployments, you might deploy each component on a separate server, in approximately the same order as shown in this example. For small deployments, components are installed in separate installation sessions on fewer servers.

Directory Server is required for all the communications components, but not necessarily a local copy. A local copy of Administration Server is required by Messaging Server. Access Manager or the Access Manager SDK is required, but Access Manager can be remote. In this example, Web Server serves as the web container, which is required by Access Manager. Although Calendar Server and Messaging Server do not require a local web container, Communications Express does. Communications Express can use a remote copy of Calendar Server, but Messaging Server must be local.

Instant Messaging and Portal Server Secure Remote Access are added to the front-end server (Host D) after the other components are installed and functioning. Instant Messaging requires Access Manager and a local or remote web container. Portal Server Secure Remote Access requires Access Manager and a local web container. Portal Server Secure Remote Access also requires Portal Server, but not necessarily a local copy.

In this example, the following installation sessions are used:

By dividing the installation into a number of sessions, you can verify the components in each session before proceeding to the next session.

The general steps for this type of installation include:

On Host A
  1. Installing and starting Access Manager and Directory Server
  2. Access Manager and Directory Server Example

On Host B
  1. Installing and starting Portal Server and Web Server, specifying the remote Access Manager and Directory Server that are installed on Host A

Portal Server Using a Remote Access Manager Example

Portal Server requires Access Manager. Access Manager requires a local or remote copy of Directory Server and a local web container. You can run Portal Server on a separate host from Access Manager, in which case Portal Server requires a local copy of the Access Manager SDK and a local web container. When you install Portal Server and the Access Manager SDK, you need to deselect the unneeded subcomponents of Access Manager. (The installer automatically selects all Access Manager subcomponents when you select Portal Server.)

The general steps for this type of installation include:

On Host A

Verifying that Access Manager and Directory Server are installed and running

Access Manager and Directory Server Example

On Host B
  1. Running the Java ES installer
  2. Chapter 5, "Installing Sun Java Enterprise System Using the Installation Wizard"
