2.2.1 Installing Application Server
This subsection describes the types of Application Server installation methods. This subsection also describes the handling of the user environment when you install Component Container, which is one of the component software included in the Application Server products, and the dependence relationship of the component software supporting the products.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Types of installation methods
The Application Server installation methods are as follows:
-
With this method, you install Application Server in an environment where Application Server is installed. You can choose the component software you want to install from "Standard" and "Custom". If you choose "Standard", all the component software recommended for Application Server will be installed. If you choose "Custom", the component software selected from among the component software supporting Application Server will be installed. For details, see 2.2.2 Installing new Application Server (In Windows), 2.2.3 Installing new Application Server (In AIX), or 2.2.4 Installing new Application Server (In Linux).
-
Update installation
With this method, you install Application Server (same product) in an environment where Application Server is already installed. You can choose the component software you want to install from "Standard" and "Custom". If you choose "Standard", all the component software recommended for Application Server will be re-installed. If you choose "Custom", the component software selected from among the component software supporting Application Server will be re-installed. For details, see Appendix F Update installation of Application Server.
The other installation methods are as follows:
-
Installation by using JP1/SC/DPM to replicate the disk
With this method, you use JP1/SC/DPM to install a replication of the created disk image. For details, see Appendix G Installation by using JP1/SC/DPM to replicate the disk.
-
Remote installation
With this installation method, you use JP1/NETM/DM and Groupmax Remote Installation to distribute the software to the client via the network. For details, see Appendix H Remote installation.
Note that the Application Server installation method described in this example is the new installation method.
(2) Handling the user environment when Component Container is installed
When you install Component Container, which is one of the component software included in the Application Server products, the user environment is handled differently for each type of installation. The following table describes the handling of the user environment for each installation type.
|
Installation type |
User definition of the J2EE server or batch server |
User definition of the server management commands |
Work directory of the server# |
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
New installation |
The installer sets up the default J2EE server or batch server, and creates the user definition. |
The installer creates the default user definition. |
The work directory is created when the J2EE server or batch server starts for the first time. |
|
|
Update installation |
Updating the same versions (overwrite) |
The previous settings are inherited. If the definition directory (Application-Server-installation-directory\CC\server\usrconf\ejb\host-name, or /opt/Cosminexus/CC/server/usrconf/ejb/host-name) of the default server (server of the specified host name) does not exist, the definition file is automatically set up. |
The previous settings are inherited. |
The previous settings are inherited. |
|
Updating different versions (upgrading the version) |
The previous settings are inherited. |
The previous settings are inherited. |
After installation, execute the cjenvupdate command (migration command for J2EE servers or batch servers) to migrate the work directory. The migration information is stored in the existing directory, and is used as is. For details, see Chapter 10 in the manual Application Server Maintenance and Migration Guide. |

The work directory of the server varies for the J2EE servers and batch servers. For details on the J2EE server work directory, see Appendix C.1 Work directory of the J2EE server. For details on the batch server work directory, see Appendix C.2 Work directory of the batch server.
(3) Component software supporting the products
The component software included in each product supports the Application Server and BPM/ESB platform functionality. The functionality you can implement varies in accordance with the type of component software included in the product. The following table describes the mapping of the products and the component software. For details on the component software, see 2.2.2 Overview of the component software functionality in the uCosminexus Application Server Overview.
