DataStage 8.7 Installation

dganeshm · Post by **dganeshm** » Sat Jul 14, 2012 5:14 am

I am planning to install DataStage 8.7, I have a few questions on it :

1. What is the default version of WAS which comes with the DataStage install
2. Do I have install WAS Separately and then install DataStage or can I just install the services tier along with DataStage install ?

Any help in this regard is appreciated.

Have you read through the Installation Guide for Information Server 8.7? Perhaps surprisingly, it contains the answers to these questions and more

Yeah I actually did.. it does not say which version of WAS is bundled within the Information Server installable.

Actually, it does right here ("Options for installing the application server software"), as well as the installation options for WAS.

If you're going to use WAS 8, or going to run WAS as a cluster, you must pre-install WAS or use an existing installation which meets the system requirements. Otherwise, you can either pre-install WAS or install it with the IS installer.
