Run the Installation from the Deployment Manager

Once you have created the WebSphere cluster, you can install CA Identity Manager on it.

Note: Installer fields that require a hostname and port number should not use localhost.

To install CA Identity Manager on the Deployment Manager system

  1. Log into the system with the Deployment Manager.
  2. Stop the first cluster member, the only cluster member that you have configured so far.
  3. Start the Node Agent for that cluster member.
  4. Stop the WebSphere Deployment Manager.
  5. On the system that hosts the Deployment Manager, run the CA Identity Manager installation.

    release represents the current release of CA Identity Manager.

    Important! Be sure that you have the collected the information needed by the installer, such as user names, host names, and ports.

  6. Complete the Select Components section by including the Identity Manager Server and any other components that you need on this system.

    Note: If you see options to upgrade the workflow database and migrate task persistence data, enable those options. They appear in some scenarios when your previous installation was CA Identity Manager r12.

  7. When you enter any password or shared secret in the installation, be sure to provide a password that you can recall when needed.

    Server Name

    The first cluster member in the WebSphere cluster. You find this name in the WebSphere console.

    Profile Name

    The deployment manager profile. You find this name in the Windows or UNIX file system at the path:

    was_home/profiles/Deployment_Manager_Profile/config/cells/

    Cell Name

    The deployment manager's cell which can be found in the WebSphere console.

    Node Name

    A node that contains the Server Name you supplied on this screen. You find this name in the WebSphere console.

  9. Complete the Message Engine Database Source section. The installer creates a JDBC data source as the Message Engine message store based on the following information you provide:

If any issues occur during installation, inspect the installation logs.

Important! Do not start the cluster yet, as it will not function. Complete the remaining procedures, which conclude with the steps to start the cluster.
