Overview of IBM WebSphere Application Server upgrade

Before you begin the IBM® TRIRIGA® Application Platform upgrade, you must install IBM WebSphere® Application Server locally or on a server.

Upgrade phases

Upgrading the platform on the WebSphere Application Server involves several phases:
  • Starting the WebSphere Application Server.
  • Starting the IBM TRIRIGA upgrade.
  • Finishing the IBM TRIRIGA upgrade.
  • Manually configuring WebSphere Application Server properties if the installer process fails to deploy the IBM TRIRIGA upgrade.

Timeout property in WebSphere

The IBM TRIRIGA installation with the WebSphere Application Server might fail if the com.ibm.SOAP.requestTimeout property value is not increased. The property can be found in the soap.client.props file of the WebSphere Application Server properties directory. For example, in UNIX, the location might look like:
/usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/properties/soap.client.props
Setting the property value to 0 sets the timeout to unlimited.
com.ibm.SOAP.requestTimeout=0
