Comprehensive install and uninstall information

The information in this section describes how to install WebSphere Business Integration Adapters (WBIA).

Install the WBIA product by running a platform-specific executable for the installer. Table 6 lists the installer executable for each operating system. The installer executables are located in the WebSphereBI directory on the product CD.

Operating system WBIA Installer executable file
Windows setupwin32.exe
Linux setupLinux.bin
iSeries setupiSeries.bin

Note:
These procedures assume that you are installing from a product CD. If you obtain your software from Passport Advantage, make sure you have downloaded it. Refer to your Passport Advantage information for those downloading instructions.
Note:
If you are installing the adapters to communicate with InterChange Server, you must install the broker first. See the installation guide for InterChange Server on the appropriate platform for information on how to install the broker.
Important:
Make sure you are logged in as the WebSphere business integration system administrator before you install the adapters. When you install on a UNIX computer, the permissions of the folders and files that are created are set based on the permissions of the user account that performs the installation.
Important:
You must not install WBIA as root. The entry that is added to the Object Data Manager (ODM) when installing as root prevents you from using SMIT to uninstall other applications, so you should not install WBIA as root.
