Installing webMethods Module for EDIINT

About this task

Note: webMethods Module for EDIINT stores data in Trading Networks tables. If you are installing webMethods Module for EDIINT in a clustered environment, you must install webMethods Module for EDIINT and Trading Networks on each Integration Server in the cluster, and each installation must be identical. For information on running Trading Networks in a clustered environment, see information about configuring Trading Networks in the IBM webMethods Trading Networks Administrator’s Guide for your release.

To install webMethods Module for EDIINT

Procedure

  1. If you are going to install webMethods Module for EDIINT on an already installed Integration Server, shut down the Integration Server. Make sure that the version of Integration Server is 8.2 or higher.
  2. Download the IBM webMethods Installer.
  3. Start the IBM webMethods Installer wizard.
  4. In the Release list, click IBM Products 8.x. Provide your IBM Empower user name and password. Click Next. The installer uses the user name and password to connect to the installer server and download the products for which you have purchased licenses.
  5. Specify the installation directory as follows:
    • If you are installing webMethods Module for EDIINT on an existing Integration Server, specify the installation directory that contains the host Integration Server.
    • If you are installing both the host Integration Server and webMethods Module for EDIINT, specify the installation directory to use. (The default is IBM.)
  6. In the product selection list, select eStandards > webMethods Module 8.2 SP1 for EDIINT. The installer installs the WmEDIINT package in the Integration Server_directory \packages directory.

    You can select any required webMethods components you have not installed, such as Integration Server, Trading Networks, IBM My webMethods Server, and webMethods Module for EDI. For a list of required products and their versions, see IBM webMethods eStandards Modules System Requirements , available in the webMethods area of the webMethods.io Documentation Website.

  7. Start the Integration Server on which you installed webMethods Module for EDIINT.

Upgrading to Module 8.2 SP1 for EDIINT

About this task

This upgrade procedure explains how to install Module 8.2 SP1 for EDIINT over a previous version of webMethods Module for EDIINT.

Note: IBM strongly recommends that you upgrade and migrate in a controlled test environment and test that installation for proper operation before upgrading and migrating your production environment.

To upgrade to Module 8.2 SP1 for EDIINT

Procedure

  1. Shut down all webMethods products and all other applications that are running on the machine on which you are going to install webMethods Module for EDIINT. In addition, if any business processes are running, wait for them to complete normally or use Monitor to stop them.
    Important: If all products, applications, and business processes are not shut down, the installer will not be able to replace key files that are locked by the operating system.
  2. Back up the old webMethods Module for EDIINT installation directory: Integration Server_directory \packages\WmEDIINT.
  3. Uninstall the previous version of the module. For more information, see the installation guide for that version.
    Important: The IBM webMethods Uninstaller does not delete files that you have created or configuration files associated with the older version of the module, nor does it delete the directory structure that contains those files. If you do not want to save those files, go to the Integration Server_directory \packages directory and delete the WmEDIINT package directories.
  4. Install webMethods Module for EDIINT as described in Installing webMethods Module for EDIINT. For the installation directory, specify the Module 8.2 SP1 for EDIINT installation directory.
  5. Copy the Integration Server_directory \packages\WmEDIINT\config\properties.cnf file from your back-up installation to the same directory in your 8.2 SP1 installation.
  6. Restart webMethods Module for EDIINT.
  7. Migrate the data and TPAs from IBM webMethods B2B Trading Networks. To migrate data from Trading Networks, follow the instructions in the Upgrading IBM webMethods Products for your release.
    Note: When migrating from version 6.5 to a later release, the value of S/MIME Type field is not migrated.
  8. Run the service, wm.EDIINT.doc:migrateSMimeType in Integration Server Administrator to migrate the value of S/MIME Type field from version 6.5 to the SMIME Type field in the later versions of the module.
  9. Run the service, wm.EDIINT.doc:migrateRequestSignedReceipt in Integration Server Administrator to migrate the value of Signed MDN field from version 6.5 to the Request Signed Receipt field in the later versions of the module.
  10. Run the service, wm.EDIINT.doc:migrateCompression in Integration Server Administrator to migrate the value of Compressed field from version 6.5 to the Compression field in the later versions of the module.
