Welcome to another of my multi-parters! This one will be somewhat complex. Not Maximo installation, but, of course, the order of installation.   There are five parts:   Part 1. WebLogic installation done. Part 1.5 Install Maximo Asset Management 7.6.0 done. Part 2. Configure WebLogic Part 3. Create JMS and email listener queues Part 4. Configure Maximo Asset Management 7.6.0 Part 5. Deploy the Maximo ear files to WebLogic   Parts 1 and 1.5 are below, nice and short. Since IBM includes WebSphere 8.5.5.3 with Maximo 7.6, the...

Today I'm moving back over from turning lights on with Maximo to another product that talks with Maximo.  That product is Maximo Anywhere and our latest version of Maximo Anywhere 7.6 has just been released. Along with Maximo Anywhere 7.6 comes some new functionality and new support, if you wish to learn more about what's new you can head over to our Infocenter and read up on the features and system architecture. However today I won't be talking about the functionality but the new support for Windows 10 devices and what we need... [More]

Today, I'm going to go over step by step installing a Maximo 7.6 Feature Pack. It is very similar to the process for installing Interim Fixes, which I documented at Installing an Interim Fix in Maximo 7.6 . I thought that a post dedicated solely to Feature Pack installation would be useful. Feature Pack releases differ from older Fix Pack releases in that, in addition to bug fixes and compatibility notices, new functionality may be added. See Maximo 7.6 Maintenance Delivery Strategy for more... [More]

On September 10th, 2015 Maximo 7.5.0.7 Interim Fix 009 was released.   If you have downloaded Maximo 7.5.0.7 Interim Fix 009(TPAE_7507_IFIX.20150901-1047.psi.zip) from IBM Fix Central before the date of October 7th, 2015 you will be unable to apply the Interim Fix. This is due to an invalid character contained within the PSI package files. The Process Solution Installer will show the following error during the deployment.     The corrected Interim Fix has now been posted to Fix Central. If you have downloaded the file previously...

It was brought to my attention that after installing Maximo Anywhere 7.5.2.1 a new plug in file is copied to the Installation Manager shared folders, once installed only this plug in will be read when displaying the installation panels. Now the problem with this is, if you decide to install another version of Maximo Anywhere to the same server under a new package group which is supported by the Installation Manager some panels may be missing from the installation process.  Specifically panels regarding the Android SDK.  With this...

Maximo 7.6 has a slightly different directory structure and I wanted to point out to everyone some key default log locations that will help when it comes time to troubleshoot a 7.6 install.

This post will cover some of the same ground as a series I published last year . Those postings went into depth on setting up a new WebSphere Application server, database server, and setting up application server security with LDAP, but didn't go into much depth about doing the WebSphere application server "migration". using the term migration is misleading--I am recreating the Maximo application server on a new server. I decided recently that I need to re-image the Windows server that hosts four of my... [More]

I'm back again, changing things up a bit this week from the usual LDAP blog.  Today we are going to talk about clustering and go into a detail step by step guide to configuring WebSphere 8.5.5 in a horizontal cluster. Unlike a vertical cluster which is built up on the same server, a horizontal cluster spans multiple servers/nodes to allow for another layer of fail over. Clustering is appropriate for implementations with a large user load, as you add more users you may need to add additional JVM's to either the existing nodes or new... [More]

The Middleware Installer for Maximo and other Maximo based products provides an option to install and configure IBM Tivoli Directory Server as an LDAP server for Maximo Security.  Sometimes, it may be desirable to install and configure ITDS manually.  This  new Wiki page  outlines a step by step procedure for installing and configuring ITDS for Maximo Security.    You can also access the page at this shortened url:  http://ibm.co/XtFE3U   The procedure detailed in the wiki page includes steps on adding the required Maximo security users but can...

Maximo Industry Solution installation programs will, by default, install and configure the product during the installation process. The automated installation and configuration of the industry solution is usually the best way to deploy the product. It is faster, easier, and less error prone than manually configuring the product. However the installation process can be separated into distinct install versus configuration actions. The industry solution can first be installed and then later configured by updating the Maximo database, building the... [More]

When IBM introduced support for WebSphere 8 with Maximo 7.5.0.2 one of the benefits of supporting WebSphere 8 was the new installation process which is simpler and more efficient than the previous versions of WebSphere. WebSphere 8 uses the IBM Installation Manager which has a built-in update mechanism to keep both the Installation Manager and any products installed by the Installation Manager (WebSphere 8 being one of them with others such as the IBM Data Studio client tool suite for DB2) up to date. If the system that you have the... [More]
