Creating stand-alone profiles using the BPMConfig command

You can configure a stand-alone profile using the BPMConfig command.

Before you begin

If you have an existing WebSphere® Application Server profile that you want to augment, you must use the manageprofiles command-line utility instead.

Locate the appropriate sample properties file based on your environment in install_root/BPM/samples/config/express. For example, the sample configuration properties file for a Process Center environment using DB2 with IBM® BPM Express is called Express-PC-Standalone-DB2.properties.
Modify your version of the properties file so that the values correspond to your own configuration. When you save your file, ensure that it uses UTF-8 encoding. For information about the available properties, read the comments in the sample files, or see the BPMConfig command-line utility and the examples.
Run the BPMConfig command, passing it the name of the properties file that you created. For example:
```
install_root/bin/BPMConfig.sh -create -de my_environment.properties 
```
The new stand-alone profile and deployment environment are created based on the settings in your properties file.

Proceed to the Quick Start console and start the server for the stand-alone profile you created.
