For a Configure Now installation, the installer presents one or more configuration queries for the selected product components that can be configured during installation. The following information can help in your selection:
For information on the configuration values on each page, click the online help button at the bottom of each page. This information can also be found in the Chapter 3, Configuration Information, in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Installation Reference for UNIX.
Configuration worksheets are provided for gathering your configuration information in Chapter 4, Configuration Worksheets, in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Installation Reference for UNIX.
The following product components cannot be configured by the Java ES installer and, therefore, must be configured after installation: Directory Proxy Server, Java DB, Monitoring Console, Service Registry, and Sun Cluster software.
Although Sun Cluster software itself cannot be configured during installation, you are offered the option of enabling remote support to simplify postinstallation configuration. The default is Yes.
After installation is complete, you can access your configuration information in the Installation Summary here:
Solaris OS: /var/sadm/install/logs
Linux and HP-UX: /var/opt/sun/install/logs
Specify configuration settings for product components.
Either accept the defaults or use the information you gathered in the product component worksheets to answer the installer queries regarding each product component.
A typical configuration query looks similar to the following:
Web Server: Specify instance Settings Server Name [myComputer.example.com] {"<" goes back, "!" exits} Enter HTTP Port [80] {"<" goes back, "!" exits} Enter Runtime UNIX User ID [webservd] {"<" goes back, "!" exits} Enter Document Root Directory [/var/opt/SUNWwbsvr7/docs] {"<" goes back, "!" exits} |
When you are installing Access Manager with Portal Server, you can select either Realm (Access Manager 7.x compatible) mode or Legacy (Access Manager 6.x compatible) mode for Access Manager, ignoring the installer message that says Legacy mode is required for Portal Server. However, Portal Server supports Realm mode only if Access Manager is configured with Directory Server, with AM SDK configured for the data store. If you are using Communications products, Legacy mode is required
To use Web Server as the web container, the Web Server Configuration Type mode must be set to Server, not Agent, when you are queried on the Web Server Configuration Type page. Default value is Server.
Review the list of your selected product components and subcomponents.
After configuration values are set, the installer displays a Ready to Install list of the components and subcomponents that you have selected. For example:
Ready to Install ------------------------- The following components will be installed. Product: Java Enterpirese System 5 Uninstall Location: /var/sadm/prod/SUNWentsys5 Space Required: 199.10 M ---------------------------------------------- Web Server 7.0 Web Server CLI Web Server Core Web Server Samples Directory Preparaation Tool 6.4 Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.0 Directory Server Core Server Directory Service Control Center Directory Server Enterprise Edition Command-Line Utilities Directory Proxy Server Core Server Monitoring Console 1.0 |
If you need to make changes, type < and press Return until you reach the prior query that requires a change. Although shared components are not explicitly listed, they have already been verified and will be installed if they are needed by the selected product components.
