3 Installing, Updating, and Configuring WebSphere 8.5 and 8.5.5
note :
Unless otherwise noted, all references to WebSphere version 8.5 are also applicable to WebSphere version 8.5.5. Unless otherwise noted, all references to WebSphere translation 8.5 are besides applicable to WebSphere version 8.5.5. Beginning with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Release 9.1 Update 2.3, the IBM WebSphere Application Server Release 8.5 is supported.
Beginning with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Release 9.1 Update 3.3, the IBM WebSphere Application Server Release 8.5.5 is supported. This fix pack can be installed as a raw facility or an update .
relative to WebSphere 7.0, with IBM WebSphere 8.5 the facility routine has changed dramatically. You will now use the IBM Installation Manager as a cardinal hub to manage the installation process. The IBM Installation Manager is designed to make the facility procedure much dim-witted and easier than in anterior releases .
additionally IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5 supports SDK 1.6 as the basic configuration but with SDK 1.7 as an optional configuration. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the execution requires SDK 1.7 as the default option run-time configuration for WebSphere Application Server 8.5. therefore, after WebSphere Application Server is installed with the basic configuration, you MUST change the default SDK to 1.7 .
This chapter describes these tasks :
- 3.1 Before You Begin
