Directory Server is required for all the communications components, but not necessarily a local copy. A local copy of Administration Server is required by Messaging Server. Access Manager or the Access Manager SDK is required, but Access Manager can be remote. In this example, Web Server fulfills the Access Manager requirement for a web container. Although Calendar Server and Messaging Server do not require a local web container, Communications Express does. Communications Express can use a remote copy of Calendar Server, but Messaging Server must be local.
You must use Access Manager Legacy (6.x) installation type if you are installing Access Manager with Portal Server, Messaging Server, Calendar Server, Delegated Administrator, or Instant Messaging. Access Manager Realm (7.x) installation type can only be used if you are not installing any of these components.
To implement single sign-on, Instant Messaging requires Access Manager and a local or remote web container. Portal Server Secure Remote Access requires Access Manager and a local web container. Portal Server Secure Remote Access also requires Portal Server, but not necessarily a local copy. Portal Server Secure Remote Access must be installed in same location as Portal Server. Access Manager andPortal Server cannot use different web containers.
For large deployments, you might deploy each component on a separate server, in approximately the same order shown in this example. For small deployments, components are installed in separate installation sessions on fewer servers.
To use this sequence example, also refer to known issue 6284663 in the Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4 Release Notes.
In this example, the following installation sessions are used:
Session 1, Host A: Installing Access Manager and Directory Server
Session 2, Host B: Installing Portal Server and Web Server (using remote Directory Server and Access Manager on Host A)
Session 3, Host C: Installing Calendar Server (using remote Directory Server and Access Manager on Host A)
Session 4, Host D: Installing Communications Express, Messaging Server, Access Manager SDK, and Web Server (using remote Directory Server and Access Manager on Host A, and remote Calendar Server on Host C)
Session 5, Host D: Installing Instant Messaging (using remote Directory Server and Access Manager on Host A) after the other components are installed and functioning
Session 6, Host D: Installing Portal Server Secure Remote Access (using remote Directory Server and Access Manager on Host A)
By dividing the installation into a number of sessions, you are able to verify the components in each session before proceeding to the next session.
The following high-level tasks are required:
Installing and starting Access Manager and Directory Server
Because Administration Server provides a graphical interface for Directory Server, you might also want to select Administration Server.
The following high-level tasks are required:
Installing and starting Portal Server and Web Server, specifying the remote Access Manager and Directory Server that are installed and running on Host A
A web container and the Access Manager SDK must be local to Portal Server.
The following high-level tasks are required:
Installing and starting Calendar Server, specifying the remote Access Manager and Directory Server that are installed on Host A
Access Manager SDK must be local to Messaging Server and Calendar Server.
Install only Calendar Server using the Calendar Server and Messaging Server Example.
The following high-level tasks are required:
Installing Communications Express, Messaging Server, Access Manager SDK, and Web Server using the Configure Later option
Performing Web Server post-installation configuration
