The Java Enterprise System installer program installs a series of products, shared components, and libraries that interoperate with one another.
To successfully install and configure Delegated Administrator, you need to install the following components by running the Java Enterprise System installer:
Sun Java System Directory Server 5.x
Sun Java System Access Manager 7.0
Access Manager 7 has two installation types: Legacy Mode (the default) and Realm Mode. Legacy Mode is compatible with Delegated Administrator.
When you run the Java Enterprise System installer, in the first Access Manager panel, you must choose Legacy mode as the Install type. Do not choose Realm mode.
Because Delegated Administrator requires you to use LDAP Schema 2 to provision your users and groups, you need to install Access Manager.
One of the following Web containers:
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1
Sun Java System Application Server 7.x
Sun Java System Application Server 8.x
(The Java Enterprise System installer also checks to make sure you have installed Directory Server 5.x and one of the Web containers listed above.)
One or both of Sun Java System Messaging Server and Sun Java System Calendar Server.
Delegated Administrator is a provisioning tool for Messaging Server and Calendar Server. Therefore, to use Delegated Administrator successfully, you should install either or both of these applications.
It is not recommended that Messaging Server or Calendar Server be installed on the same system as Access Manager.
See the Sun Java System Messaging Server Administration Guide for instructions on configuring Messaging Server. See the Sun Java System Calendar Server Administration Guide for instructions on configuring Calendar Server.
Delegated Administrator
A panel in the Java Enterprise System installer asks whether to install Delegated Administrator. In this panel, specify that you want to install Delegated Administrator.
(In earlier releases, Delegated Administrator was installed automatically with Access Manager.)
The installer installs Delegated Administrator in a directory referred to as the da_base (for example, the default is /opt/SUNWcomm).
For information about the Java Enterprise System installer, refer to the Sun Java Enterprise System Installation Guide.
If you are upgrading Delegated Administrator from a previous Sun Java System version, see the chapter called “Upgrading Delegated Administrator” in the Sun Java Enterprise System Upgrade and Migration Guide.
