Installing the master domain manager and backup master domain manager
A fresh installation for the master domain manager and the backup master domain manager
![This picture describes the steps required for installing the full IBM Workload Scheduler software stack. You are now at step 5: installing the master domain manager and backup master domain manager](InstallMDM.jpg)
Procedure to install a master domain manager and backup master domain manager
- Installing WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base on the workstation where you plan to install the master domain manager and on the workstation where you plan to install the backup master domain manager.
- Creating and populating the database
- Creating the IBM Workload Scheduler administrative user
You can perform a typical installation, as described in the following scenario, or you can customize the installation parameters, as described in FAQ - master domain manager and backup master domain manager customizations.
For more information about all serverinst parameters and default values, see Server components installation - serverinst script.
You can optionally configure your environment in SSL mode, by using the --sslkeysfolder and --sslpassword parameters and generating automatically the certificates for each workstation in your environment.
The procedure to install the master domain manager and backup master domain manager is exactly the same, with the difference that it is performed on two different workstations and that each installation points to its local WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base installation. IBM Workload Scheduler determines whether or not a master domain manager is already present in the environment and proceeds to install a master domain manager or backup master domain manager accordingly.
The IBM Workload Scheduler administrator installs the master domain manager and backup master domain manager. The following information is required:
Command parameter | Information type | Provided in.. |
Database information | ||
--rdbmstype | database type | Creating and populating the database |
--dbhostname | database hostname | |
--dbport | database port | |
--dbname | database name | |
--dbuser | database user name | |
--dbpassword | database password | |
IBM Workload Scheduler information | ||
--wauser | IBM Workload Scheduler administrative user name | Creating the IBM Workload Scheduler administrative user |
--wapassword | IBM Workload Scheduler administrative user password | |
WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base information | ||
--wlpdir | WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base installation directory | Installing WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base |
You can run the serverinst command specifying a typical set of parameters. In this case, default values are used for all remaining parameters. For more information about all serverinst parameters and default values, see Server components installation - serverinst script.
Default values are stored in the serverinst.properties file, located in image_location/TWS/interp_name.
If you need to modify any of the default values, edit the serverinst.properties file, but do not modify the serverinst.template file located in the same path.
