3.1.3 Where do I begin
Before you can begin the installation, you must choose the installation source that best fits
your environment.
Installation source
The installation media for WebSphere Portal is distributed in two ways:
1. Electronically in the form of download images
2. Physically in the form of media CDs
Using discs to perform the installation is recommended if you have the CDs and plan on
performing a limited number of installations, as little setup is required.
As an alternative to using discs, you can download WebSphere Portal software images onto a
workstation or networked drive and then use those images to install the software. The primary
delivery mechanism for retrieving the files necessary to install WebSphere Portal and its
supporting software are the electronic Service Delivery (eSD) sites. These sites include
Passport Advantage® and Partner World, which are linked directly to the IBM Customer
Entitlement systems so visitors to the site will only see what they have purchased and are
entitled to see. The files on the eSD site are arranged together in
e-Assemblies
reflecting the
solution purchased by customers by platform. The term e-Assembly or e-Assy refers to a
compilation of software images. Use one of these phrases to locate all the images that are
packaged with the WebSphere Portal offering that you want to download. You can also search
the software site for the part number of the product you wish to install rather then the
e-Assembly. The part number can also be found in the TechNote mentioned in this section, for
example, WebSphere Portal V6.0 - WebSphere Portal Enable Linux on x86, V6.0 eAssembly
(CR45KML).
This is one of the choices that downloads the WebSphere Portal Enable V6.0 image for the
Linux OS. If you are a customer using Passport Advantage to download images from the
Web, or if you have access to the appropriate IBM internal software through Business Partner
