Configuring Portal Server 7.1 on a 64–bit Web Server 7.0 Instance

Portal Server 7.1 supports 64–bit Web Server 7.0 on the following platforms:

• Solaris 10 SPARC

• Solaris 9 SPARC

• Solaris 10 amd64 (Opteron based systems)

While you install Portal Server using the Java ES installer, it is installed in the 32–bit mode. If you need to install Portal Server in 64–bit mode, you need to install it in two sessions:

• In the first session, you need to install the components, such as Web Server 7.0, Directory Server, and Access Manager.

• In the second session, you need to install Portal Server and configure it to support 64–bit mode.
