Adding or removing client applications and individual components

IBM® Installation Manager enables you to install individual components. This capability is useful when you want to install components on workstations or on a server that is different from the server on which you install the operational server and MDM database.

If you elect to install an individual component on a machine with other InfoSphere® MDM components that are already installed, run the madconfig Modify_MDM target:
  1. From a command line, browse to MDM_INSTALL_HOME/mds/scripts.
  2. Run the following command to add or remove components from the installation:
    • On Microsoft Windows systems, run 
      madconfig Modify_MDM
    • On Linux® or UNIX systems, run 
      ./madconfig.sh Modify_MDM
  3. Follow the onscreen prompts to add or remove user interface components.
If you are installing on Microsoft Windows:
  • You must be running in Administrator mode for IBM Installation Manager to write to the Windows registry. Administrator mode is not used for IBM AIX® or Linux.
  • On a Microsoft Windows 7 operating system, you must install MDM into a directory that is not virtualized.

After installing your feature, verify a successful installation by viewing the log files.

When the InfoSphere MDM web interfaces are installed and running, you can access them with a web browser at the following URLs:
Business Administration UI
https://<host name>:<port>/CustomerBusinessAdminWeb/faces/login.jsp
MDM AE/SE UI
https://<host name>:<port>/mdm-aese
Inspector
https://<host name>:<port>/inspector/common/login.ihtml
Enterprise Viewer
https://<host name>:<port>/accessweb/empi/MITLogin.jsp
Web Reports
https://<host name>:<port>/webreports/common/login.html
Note: The <hostname> and <port> values differ depending on the details of each installation. By default, the typical workstation installation uses port 9443 in each URL, but other types of installations can use different ports. Use the WebSphere® Application Server Integrated Solutions Console (admin console) to look up each actual port value.
