BPM, Business Process Management, is a product released by IBM to replace WebSphere Process Server after IBM purchased the company Lombardi and integrated its distinguished business process solution. In this post, I will show how to install BPM Advanced Server 7.5.1 on AIX7; however, this process does not include install Lombardi business process center.
The steps show how to install IBM BPM 7.5.1 silently with non-root user, for example, wpsuser.
1. PRELIMINARY WORK
1) Create a file system called /IBM or another name with 20G disk space
2) Set the limits for non-root user which is used to install BPM
wpsuser:
fsize = -1
core = -1
cpu = -1
data = -1
rss = 65536
stack = 65536
nofiles = 20000
3) Install DB2 database 9.5 FP4 or later version (DB2 9.7)
4) Download the following installation files from IBM passport advantage
PS_Adv_V751_AIX_1_of_2.tar.gz
PS_Adv_V751_AIX_2_of_2.tar.gz
2. Install Software
1) unzip the installation files PS_Adv_V751_AIX_1_of_2.tar.gz and PS_Adv_V751_AIX_2_of_2.tar.gz to the temp directory, for example /IBM/software/BPM751
2) After unpacking the zip file, go to directory .responsefiles/BPM, we will see the file template_response.xml. Before we change this file, we should backup it.
3) update the file like the following
<!-- #################### IBM Installation Repository Location #####################-->
<repository location='/IBM/software/BPM751/IM' temporary='true'/>
<!-- ################# IBM Business Process Manager Advanced - Process Server, WebSphere Application Server ND,
WebSphere Application Server Feature Pack for XML, and WebSphere Application Server Feature Pack for SCA ###################-->
<repository location="/IBM/software/BPM751/repository/">
note: the above settings specify the software repository directory
<!-- ######################################################################
This profile node defines where IBM Installation Manager (IM) is/or will be installed.
Modify where IBM Installation Manager is/or will be installed by modifying both the
installLocation and eclipseLocation values to specify the correct directory
############################################################################-->
<profile kind='self' installLocation='/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse' id='IBM Installation Manager'>
<data key='eclipseLocation' value='/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse'/>
</profile>
<!-- ######################################################################
Modify to change the location of the eclipseCache (only if no cache has been created yet)
############################################################################-->
<preference value="/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipseCache" name="com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.eclipseCache" />
note: the above settings specify the IBM Installation Manager directory
<profile installLocation='/IBM/WebSphere/BPMProcServer' id='IBM Business Process Manager Advanced - Process Server'>
<data key='eclipseLocation' value='/IBM/WebSphere/BPMProcServer' />
<data key="cic.selector.nl" value="en" />
<data key='user.import.profile' value='false'/>
<data key='user.select.64bit.image,com.ibm.websphere.ND.v70' value='true'/>
<install>
<offering profile="IBM Business Process Manager Advanced - Process Server" id="com.ibm.websphere.ND.v70" features='core.feature,samples,import.productProviders.feature,import.configLauncher.feature,consoleLanguagesSupport.feature,runtimeLanguagesSupport.feature'/>
<offering profile="IBM Business Process Manager Advanced - Process Server" id="com.ibm.websphere.XML.v10" />
<offering profile="IBM Business Process Manager Advanced - Process Server" id="com.ibm.websphere.SCA.v10" />
<offering profile="IBM Business Process Manager Advanced - Process Server" id="com.ibm.ws.WBPMPS" features='wps.client.feature,wps.server.feature'/>
</install>
note: the above settings specify the IBM Business Process Manager Advanced - Process Server directory. Specify " user.select.64bit.image,com.ibm.websphere.ND.v70" as "true" if we want to install 64 bit Business Process Manager. specify the correct features you want to install
4) Save the changes of template_response.xml
5) Go to directory /IBM/software/BPM751/IM, run the following command to install BPM751 package.
/IBM/software/BPM751/IM/userinstc -acceptLicense input /IBM/software/BPM751/responsefiles/BPM/template_response.xml -log /home/wpsuser/silent_install.log
6) Go to wpsuser home directory /home/wpsuser to check silent_install.log, the log should have no errors like the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<result>
</result>
7) You can also check a log like YYYYMMDD_HHMM.xml file in the directory /home/wpsuser/var/ibm/InstallationManager/logs to see the installation process.
If your server did not connect to internet, you may see the "connection warning" but it can be ignored.
8) After a while, the installation process will be finished.
Installed com.ibm.cic.agent_1.5.0.20110909_1200 to the /IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse directory.
Installed com.ibm.websphere.ND.v70_7.0.19.20110814_1205 to the /IBM/WebSphere/BPMProcServer directory.
Installed com.ibm.websphere.XML.v10_1.0.9.20110429_1452 to the /IBM/WebSphere/BPMProcServer directory.
Installed com.ibm.websphere.SCA.v10_1.0.1011.20110506_0159 to the /IBM/WebSphere/BPMProcServer directory.
Installed com.ibm.ws.WBPMPS_7.5.1000.20111111_2245 to the /IBM/WebSphere/BPMProcServer directory
9) Go to directory /IBM/WebSphere/BPMProcServer/bin, run versionInfo.sh to check the version information, we should see:

10) Strongly recommend to install the following ifixes using Installation Manager after you finish BPM installation
7.5.1.0-WS-ATLAS-IFJR41201.zip
7.5.1.0-WS-ATLAS-IFJR41203.zip
7.5.1.0-WS-BPM-IFJR41195.zip
was.7.0.0.19.fixes.for.bpm.7.5.1.0.zip
check the following link for the recommended ifixes
