How to Use This Chapter

When the Java ES installer finishes installation, most components require additional configuration before the Java ES environment is operational. The extent of this work depends on the configuration type you selected, either Configure Automatically During Installation or Configure Manually After Installation.

If you selected the Configure Manually After Installation option, the installer placed the component package files in their respective directories. No parameters were set, and most components are not operational because runtime services are not available. A number of components include configuration tools for completing a manual configuration after installation. When running the configuration tools, you can make any additional changes by following the instructions located in this guide, and in the documentation for each component.

Before acting on the information in this chapter, you should have completed the installation of the Java ES components. For a list of packages associated with the components, see Appendix B, Default Directories and Ports. A summary report containing the configuration values that were set during installation is available in the JavaES-install-dir\Summarydate.txt file.

After completing installation, review the procedures included in this chapter for the Java ES components that you installed. If no additional configuration is required for your Java ES components, you can start your Java ES components by following the instructions in Chapter 6, Verifying Installed Java ES Components.

The default installation locations of Java ES components might be different on the various platforms. Therefore, the procedures in this chapter use variables to represent these locations. For example, ApplicationServer-base represents the directory where Application Server is installed, regardless of platform.
