Before you install and configure Oracle ATG Web Commerce:
Make sure you have the path to the IBM WebSphere installation directory. You need to provide it when you run the Oracle ATG Web Commerce installer and the Configuration and Installation Manager (CIM). For example:
C:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer
Make sure you have the username and password of the IBM WebSphere administration user.
Make sure the IBM WebSphere administration application is running.
If you run IBM WebSphere as the root user of a UNIX or Linux operating system, also run CIM as the root user.
The CIM utility uses cell deployment when deploying applications to the IBM WebSphere application server. Use the IBM WebSphere Network Deployment version for this type of installation, denoted by ND.
If you have installed the IBM WebSphere Network Deployment version, when you run the ATG installer you must select the IBM WebSphere - cluster setup option even if you are not actually using clustering.
