Installation procedures with IBM Cloud Pak for Integration

The API Management capability of IBM Cloud Pak for Integration uses IBM API Connect.

There are several methods for installing API Connect with Cloud Pak for Integration:

Use the Cloud Pak for Integration Platform UI to install API Connect with a top-level CR. The steps are documented in the installation section of the Cloud Pak for Integration documentation: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/cloud-paks/cp-integration.
Install API Connect as individual subsystems: Install Cloud Pak for Integration first, then install API Connect following the OpenShift instructions: Installing with subsystem CRs in a shared namespace on OpenShift or Installing with subsystem CRs in different namespaces or environments on OpenShift. Cloud Pak for Integration detects and incorporates the API Connect installation.
If API Connect is already installed with the top-level CR and you want to migrate it to Cloud Pak for Integration, see Migrating from OpenShift to Cloud Pak for Integration on the same cluster.
If you want to install API Connect in the two data center disaster recovery configuration, see Installing a two data center deployment with Cloud Pak for Integration.
