How to Use This Chapter

There are two types of verification presented in this chapter: verifying directly after installation, and verifying after all postinstallation configuration is done.

• Verifying after installation. This type of verification is used to discover if installation was basically successful; only some components can be started and stopped at this point.

• Verifying after postinstallation configuration. This type of verification is used to verify that all the components can be started and are capable of running. Instructions for starting and stopping each component individually are included.

The default installation locations of Java ES product components are different on the various operating system. Due to this difference, the procedures in this chapter often use placeholders to represent these locations. For example, AccessManager-base represents the base installation directory for Access Manager.

In most cases, the examples in this chapter are based on default information. If you do not remember the installation or configuration values specified for your product component, try the example. Default installation directories and ports are listed in Chapter 2, Default Installation Directories and Ports, in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Installation Reference for UNIX.
