This chapter provides a high-level view of the WebSphere Business Integration Express for Item Synchronization installation process.
The following tasks are described in detail in this guide:
The WebSphere Business Integration Express for Item Synchronization installation CD contains software that is loaded on your OS/400 system (via a remote install from a windows client) and also contains software that is loaded on a windows client. The Tools components only run on a Windows client. They do not run on an OS/400 system, so you will need to use a Windows client for this purpose. Also, some menu shortcuts are created on your Windows client to start the WebSphere Business Integration Express for Item Synchronization applications on the OS/400. These shortcuts are helpful when performing the initial setup and deployment of the product.
If you have previously installed the appropriate version of the prerequisite products, you might not need to reinstall it for use with IBM WebSphere Business Integration Express for Item Synchronization. However, you should check the configuration instructions for the specific software.
