Info: Installation Sequence in NW SP Stack05

[Former Member]

Hi all,

some consultants asked me (through another channel) how the installation can be kept as short as possible.

Here an installation sequence i have tried successfully:

(1) OS: Solaris 8, JDK: 1.4.2_05

(2) Installation: WebAS 6.40 (J2EE) SP3

(3) Upgrade to: WebAS 6.40 (J2EE) SP4

(4) Installation: Portal EP 6.0 SP3

(5) Upgrade to: WebAS 6.40 (J2EE) SP8

(6) Upgrade to: Portal EP 6.0 SP7

(7) Installation: KM & Col. SP4

(8) Upgrade to: KM & Col. SP7

Compared with the installation sequence we had until now, you can save three major steps and of course much time!

Advantage also: NW SP Stack 05 of Portal platform is completed (do functionality checks, etc); Afterwards you proceed with KMC to the same NW SP Stack level.

Please note: I struggled with an upgrade to SP8 before Portal SP3 installation. This works actually not.

Hope that helps outthere. Please feel free to spend some points if you like.

Thanks and best regards,

Andreas

Hello Andreas,

we've directly Upgraded to WebAS 6.40 SP8 and then started to install the Portal. Have a look at my Weblog:
