Before you install IBM Web Services Navigator, it is assumed that the IBM Tivoli® Monitoring product platform is already installed and configured in your environment, and that IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for SOA is installed on one or more application servers where you are monitoring Web services data. If you are planning to use IBM Web Services Navigator to retrieve Web services data that is stored in a warehouse database, it is assumed that the Warehouse Proxy function is configured and operational, and that the IBM Tivoli Monitoring environment is configured for historical data collection. Refer to the product publications for these installation and configuration procedures.

When you install the Eclipse environment provided with IBM Web Services Navigator, allow for at least 200 MB of storage space.

IBM Web Services Navigator imports data from IBM DB2®, Microsoft SQL Server, and Oracle data warehouse databases. The database versions supported are as follows:

DB2 database versions 8.1 with fix pack 10 or later fix packs, 8.2 with fix pack 3 or later fix packs, 9.1 and fix packs, 9.5 and fix packs, and 9.7 and fix packs
Oracle database versions 9g, 10g Release 1, 10g Release 2, 11g Release 1, and 11g Release 2
Microsoft SQL Server versions 2000 with service pack 3, 2005 and 2008.

Each database requires a JDBC driver:

JDBC-DB2 for DB2
MS SQL JDBC driver for MS SQL
Oracle JDBC driver for Oracle

This publication assumes that you already have installed and configured IBM Tivoli Monitoring warehouse proxy database support in your environment.

IBM Web Services Navigator requires a Java™ version 1.6 SR3 or later runtime environment.

IBM Web Services Navigator requires a supported Eclipse environment, and several additional plug-ins that extend the Eclipse environment. IBM Web Services Navigator comes with an embedded Eclipse version 3.2.2 environment that you must install with the tool.
