Configure Components During Installation

If you selected more than one component to Configure Now, you first specify administrator information on the Specify Administrator Account Preferences page. If you selected just one component, you skip this page and specify the administrator user ID and password on the Specify Common Server Settings page.

The account preferences page specifies whether you want to use the same administrator account for all product components or provide account information component by component. The result of each choice is as follows:

• If you use the same administrator information for all product components, the installer does not prompt you for this information on subsequent pages in the installer but uses the values that you provide on this page.

• If you provide administrator information for each product component, the installer prompts you for this information during installation as you configure each component.

Do not use white space or the following symbols for administrator passwords in Java ES: ; & ( ) ! | < > ' " $ ^ \ # / , @ %

When you click Next, the Specify Common Server Settings page is displayed.

In the following screen capture, fields associated with the administrator user ID and administrator password are not displayed because a choice was made on the previous account preferences page to use a single administrator account and password for all components.

Common server settings are parameters used by multiple components. Accept the defaults or use alternate data to answer the installer questions regarding these global fields. Values that you enter on this page appear as default values on subsequent product component configuration pages. Refer to online help or to Common Settings for information about these fields.

Click Next to proceed to the configuration pages for components selected for Configure Now installation. The configuration pages are displayed one by one. The following screen capture shows a typical component configuration page.

Some fields on configuration pages display default values from the Specify Common Server Settings page. If you choose to enter alternate values on the configuration pages instead of accepting the defaults, you must specify the chosen alternate values whenever the item is requested by the installer or a configurator.

Click the Help button for detailed descriptions of the information requested. This field-specific information is not provided in the instructions in the Installation Guide. Descriptions of all configuration fields are also provided in Configuration Information. Use this information to complete the configuration worksheets before starting an actual installation.

When you click Next on the last configuration page, the Ready to Install page is displayed. If issues exist that prevent you from installing the software, messages tell you what you need to do.
