Installing WebSphere eXtreme Scale or WebSphere eXtreme Scale Client with WebSphere Application Server
You can install WebSphere® eXtreme Scale or WebSphere eXtreme Scale Client in an environment in which WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment is installed. You can use the existing features of WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment to enhance your eXtreme Scale applications.
Before you begin
- Verify that the target installation directory does not contain an existing installation of WebSphere eXtreme Scale or WebSphere eXtreme Scale Client.
- Stop all processes that are running in your WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Network
Deployment environment.
See Command-line utilities for more information about the
stopManager, stopNode, and stopServer
commands. CAUTION:Verify that any running processes are stopped. If the running processes are not stopped, the installation proceeds, creating unpredictable results. On some platforms, the installation might be left in an undetermined state.
Important: When you install WebSphere eXtreme Scale or
WebSphere eXtreme Scale
Client, it should be in the
same directory in which you installed WebSphere Application Server. For example, if
you installed WebSphere Application Server in C:\was_root, then you should also choose
C:\was_root as the
target directory for your WebSphere eXtreme Scale or
WebSphere eXtreme Scale
Client installation.
