If you are running your databases on the
same computer as your deployment environment, you can use the BPMConfig command
to create a stand-alone profile and the database tables simultaneously.
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.
Procedure
To create a stand-alone
profile and the database tables at the same time, complete the following
steps:
- 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 SQL Server
with IBM® BPM Express is called Express-PC-Standalone-SQLServer.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. To have the database
tables created at the same time as the profile is created, ensure
that the setting for bpm.de.deferSchemaCreation is
set to false. However, if bpm.de.deferSchemaCreation is
set to false and you are working with an SQL
Server database server that uses Windows authentication (sqlServerWinAuth=true),
you need to manually run the bootstrapProcessServerData command.
- 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, database tables, and deployment environment
are created based on the settings in your properties file.
What to do next
Proceed to the
Quick Start console and start the server for the stand-alone profile
you created.
