About this task
By starting the installation process from the launchpad
program, IBM® Installation Manager is
automatically installed if it is not already on your computer, and
it starts preconfigured with the repository location of the product
package. If you install and start Installation
Manager directly,
you must set repository preferences manually.
To install the
product from the launchpad program, complete the following steps.
Procedure
- Review the Installation considerations.
- Select the method to use to obtain the product software.
- Select a language in which to run the launchpad and Installation
Manager.
- Select the product to install from the launchpad menu.
The Install Packages window opens.
- Click IBM Rational Test Workbench Mobile Test Edition to
highlight it. The description of the package is displayed in the Details pane
at the bottom of the screen. If more information about the package
is available, such as a readme file or release notes, a More
info link is included.
To view all updates
that are found, click Show all versions.
Note: For Installation
Manager to
search the predefined IBM update
repository location for the installed package, the Search
the linked repositories during installation and updates preference
on the Repositories preference page must be selected.
This preference is selected by default. Internet access is also required.
A progress indicator shows that the search is taking place. You can
install updates at the same time that you install the base product
package.
- If there are any unsatisfied prerequisites, the Prerequisites page
is displayed. Install the indicated prerequisites. Then, click Recheck
Status.
- Select the product package and any updates to the package
to install. Updates that have dependencies are automatically selected
and cleared together. Click Next.
- On the Licenses page, read the license
agreement. On the left side of the License page,
click the package version to display its license agreement. The package
versions that you selected to install (for example, the base package
and an update) are listed under the package name. If you purchased
an Authorized User license with IBM Rational Test Workbench Mobile Test Edition,
you receive its license activation kit.
- On the Location page, the location
of the package group into which each product is to be installed is
displayed. Click each product to see its package group location. Optionally,
you can enter another location for the package group in the Installation
Directory field. Click Next.
- Select the translations to install. Some translations are
supported by all packages, while others are supported by only certain
packages.
- Click Translations Supported by Only Some Packages to
see the available translations.
- Select the translations.
- Click Next.
- On the Features page, select Rational Test Workbench Streamlined Eclipse. When you are finished
selecting features, click Next.
- On the common licensing configuration page, if you are
using Floating or Token licenses, type the TCP/IP port number and
host name of the license servers to use to configure licensing on
the workbench computer. Separate the port number and host name with
the at sign (@). Separate the port-host pairs with semicolons (;).
To use the default port, omit the port number. If you do not know
the port numbers and names of license servers to use, you can configure
the license servers after installation by using Rational License
Key Administrator. For example, to configure three license
servers that are named license1, license2, and license3 to use port
27000, the default port, and port 1765, respectively, enter this text:
27000@license1;@license2;1765@license3

receive help from the web, download help locally, or access help from
a server on your intranet. After you select a help option, click Next.
- On the Summary page, review your choices
before you install the product package. To change the choices that
you made on previous pages, click Back. When
you are satisfied with your installation choices, click Install. A progress indicator shows the percentage of the installation
that is completed. When the installation process is complete, a confirmation
message displays.
- Click View log file to open the
installation log file for the current session in a new window. You
must close the Installation Log window to continue.

package. The Install Package wizard closes and you are returned to
the launchpad program.
