Specifying application server parameters for silent installation

Specify the application server parameters that will be configured when a response file is run.

Before you begin

Attention: Although code examples might show line breaks, the text between <.../> brackets must be entered in the response file as one line without breaks.

Procedure

  1. Open a response file.
  2. Locate the following variables and edit the values to specify the WebSphere Application Server parameters for the MDM Operational Server:
    <!-- Application server parameters for backend deployment-->
        <data key='user.L1.was.home,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer8.5'/>
        <data key='user.was.type,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='ND'/>
        <data key='user.create.was.profile,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='false'/>
        <data key='user.was.profile.created,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='false'/>
        <data key='user.federate.was.profile,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='false'/>
        <data key='user.deploy.host,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmlrh503.torolab.ibm.com'/>
        <data key='user.deploy.port,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='8879'/>
        <data key='user.deploy.vHost,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdm_vHost'/>
        <data key='user.was.cell,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmlrh503Cell01'/>
        <data key='user.was.node,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmlrh503Node01'/>
        <data key='user.was.server,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdm-s-L008'/>
        <data key='user.was.cluster,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='None'/>
        <data key='user.was.cluster.flag,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='false'/>
        <data key='user.was.security,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='1'/>
        <data key='user.was.security.on.off,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='on'/>
        <data key='user.was.user,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/>
        <data key='user.was.password,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/>
        <data key='user.security.user.name,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/>
        <data key='user.security.user.password,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/>
  3. Locate the following variables and edit the values to specify the deployment target parameters:
    • If your deployment is on a WebSphere® Application Server cluster:
      <data key='user.was.cell,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmlrh503Cell01'/>
      <data key='user.was.node,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='None'/>
      <data key='user.was.server,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='None'/>
      <data key='user.was.cluster,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='CL01'/>
      ...
      <data key='user.was.cluster.flag,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='true'/>
    • If your deployment is on a single WebSphere Application Server:
      <data key='user.was.cell,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmlrh503Cell01'/>
      <data key='user.was.node,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmlrh503Node01'/>
      <data key='user.was.server,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdm-s-L008'/>
      <data key='user.was.cluster,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='None'/> 
      ...
      <data key='user.was.cluster.flag,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='false'/>
  4. If you are deploying on WebSphere Application Server base edition, locate the following parameter and edit the value to specify the WebSphere Application Server profile location:
    <data key='user.was.profile.home,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01'/>
    Note: If you are deploying on WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment edition, the profile location defined by this value is be ignored and the location will be obtained automatically instead.
  5. Locate the following variables and edit the values to specify the WebSphere Application Server administration security user and password:
    <data key='user.was.user,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/> 
    <data key='user.was.password,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/>
  6. Locate the following variables and edit the values to specify the WebSphere Application Server RunAs application security user and password:
    <data key='user.security.user.name,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/>
    <data key='user.security.user.password,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='mdmadmin'/>
    Important: The parameter representing WebSphere Application Server security should always have a value of on. Installing InfoSphere® MDM with WebSphere Application Server security disabled is not supported.
    <data key='user.was.security.on.off,com.ibm.mdm.advanced' value='on'/>
