Installing DB2 UDB
To run our samples, you require a relational database system All our testing was done with DB2 UDB Version 7.2 Fix Pack 7
Although it may be possible to run most of the examples with another relational database system, we only tested the examples with DB2 UDB
Installing DB2 UDB Version 7.2 is straight forward Just follow the installation panels You do not have to install all of the components, such as data warehousing and performance tools
The suggested installation directory is C:\SQLLIB After the base installation, you have to install Fix Pack 7 or later
Also, it is required that you run the command file java12\usejdbc2.bat which is located in the installation directory of DB2 (usually SQLLIB) to enable the JDBC Version 2 support for data sources This is not required if you use DB2 Version 8.1
Installing WebSphere Application Server

to deselect components you do not want to install We chose the Typical installation
The installation directories for the selected components are entered in the next panel We chose:
C:\WebSphere\AppServer C:\IBMHttpServer C:\WebSphere MQ
Trang 6 In the following panel we enter a node name and host name or IP address In addition, we can select to install both WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server as a service on NT or Windows 2000
After the Summary window, the installation starts
The FirstSteps dialog is started automatically at the end of the installation
Verifying the installation
Installation verification can be started from the menu In Windows 2000, select Start -> IBM WebSphere -> Application Server v5.0 -> First Steps Then select Verify Installation We can also start the command ivc localhost
If the install was successful, you should see messages similar to the following:
OS: Windows 2000 locale: en_US hostname: NODENAME cmd.exe /c "C:\WebSphere\AppServer\bin\ivt" NODENAME 9080 C:\WebSphere\AppServer
IVT0006I: Connecting to the WebSphere Server NODENAME on Port:9080 IVT0007I:WebSphere Server NODENAME is running on Port:9080

Trang 10Update Application Developer
This section demonstrates how to search for updates and how to install updates for Eclipse and Application Developer
Using the Update Manager
Application Developer contains an Update Manager The update manager can be used to discover, download, and install updated features and plug-ins from special web-based update sites
The basic underlying mechanism of the update manager is simple:
The files for a feature or plug-in are always stored in a subdirectory whose name includes a version identifier (for example, 2.0.0)
Different versions of a feature or plug-in are always given different version identifiers, thereby ensuring that the multiple versions of the same feature or plug-in can co-exist on disk
This means that installing or updating features and plug-ins requires adding more files, but never requires deleting or overwriting existing files
Once the files are installed on the local computer, the new feature and plug-in versions are available to be configured
The same installed base of files is therefore capable of supporting many different configurations simultaneously Installing and upgrading an existing product are reduced to formulating a configuration incrementally newer than the current one
Important configurations can be saved and restored to active service in the event of an unsuccessful upgrade
You can launch the update manager by selecting Help -> Software Updates -> Update Manager from the menu bar This opens the Install/Update perspective Note, that you can also open the perspective Install/Update directly
The initial Install/Update perspective is shown in Figure A-3
Note: A detailed description about the Install/Update perspective and its views
is provided in the section “Install/Update perspective” on page 75
