This topic defines the default paths and folder names of
the IBM® Business Monitor product
and product components.
Because your file paths might vary from the default file
paths that are determined during product installation, the documentation
identifies these values as variables. The variables used throughout
the documentation are defined in the following sections.
Installation image
Installation image refers
to the file structure on a product CD or the file structure created
locally as a result of either copying the product CD or uncompressing
the software packages that you downloaded from Passport Advantage® or other distribution
area.
- monitor_installation_image
- Represents the IBM Business Monitor installation
image.
- toolkit_installation_image
- Represents the Business
Monitor development toolkit installation
image.
Default installation locations
When you install
software and do not specify an installation location, the installation
program uses a default location to install the product in. This location
is called the
default installation directory. These paths
are defined as variables throughout the documentation because a user
might or might not choose to install products in the default directory
and the default directory structure can vary by operating system.
- monitor_root
- The following default installation root directories are for IBM Business Monitor when
installed from Installation Manager:
- AIX®: /usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer
- Linux: /opt/ibm/WebSphere/AppServer
- Solaris: /opt/ibm/WebSphere/AppServer
- Windows: C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer
Tip: For Windows installations, keep the path as
short as possible. Otherwise, you might run into problems later when
the paths of other components, when added to this path, exceed the
255-character path limit.

Default installation directories for the Installation
Manager
The
Installation Manager uses two default directories. One is the directory
into which the product launchpad installs the Installation Manager.
The other is the agent data location directory, which the Installation
Manager uses for data associated with the application, such as the
state and history of operations performed by the Installation Manager.
For more information about the agent data location, see
