Chapter 5. Installation

In this chapter we will discuss installation of the pre-requisite middleware, the Maximo base set of services (sometimes referred to as the Tivoli Process Automation Platform) and the Maximo Asset Management Essentials-specific process solution package.

Our examples will based on the following software components:

–Windows 2003 Server

–WebSphere 6.1 Application Server

–DB2 Database Platform

–Maximo Asset Manager Essentials 7.1 application

Though our examples will primarily demonstrate a single server environment, we realize most production environments will be (and should be) comprised of multiple servers. The process is much the same, and we will highlight those areas where a variation in the process might exist.
