Configuration Types and Parameter Settings

Many Java ES components require some degree of installation-time configurationdepening on which Java ES components you select and which installation type you choose.

The following configuration types are available in the installer:

• Configure Automatically During Installation: Use this option to evaluate the components on a single host. During installation, you configure components that permit installation-time configuration.

  In this mode, the default values for the administrator user ID and Password are displayed but these default settings can be modified during postinstallation. All other configuration parameters such as port numbers are predetermined defaults presented at the end of installation. These default values are used for configuring the components.

  Note –

  The administrator user ID and password should not contain any special characters, and the password should be eight or more characters long.

  ---

• Configure Manually After Installation: With this option during installation, you can provide only the minimum values that are necessary for placing the software components in their directories. Configuration is performed after installation.

  When you select this option, the administrator settings dialog box is not displayed. Only the files are copied during installation. You mustmanually edit the properties file with the correct values. For more information about how to edit the properties file, refer to Chapter 5, Completing Postinstallation Configuration.

  If a component is dependent on other components, ensure that you configure the dependent components first.

Depending on which configuration option you select, you might be required to provide the administrator ID and password during installation. For example, most of the components require you to specify an administrator user ID and password. By setting these common values, you are setting default values for all component administrator user IDs and passwords.

During Multi-Session installation of Java ES Components, the configuration mode, Configure Automatically during Install or Configure Manually After Installation, selected in first session install is taken as default in next successive sessions without prompting for configuration selection mode screen.
