Maximo Asset Management 7.1 Installation Guide

www.maximo2explore.com

Part 1. Overview

This guide provides a step by step walk-through of a basic Maximo 7.1 installation. Although IBM provides an installation manual, I personally find that manual too complex to use as a working document. Especially if you are new to installing Maximo 7.1, the IBM document provides too much detail for every possible platform. Therefore, I decided to create this comprehensive, step by step guide with clear instruction on how to set up a Maximo environment. The installation in this document is based on a Windows Server 2003 SP2 32-bit platform, with a WebSphere Application Server and a DB2 database. The simple reason for this is that WebSphere and DB2 are included in the Maximo installation package. Furthermore, installing Maximo on a SQL Server or Oracle database platform is not very different from installing on a DB2 platform. Part 2 in this guide shows how to install the Middleware. This term is used to indicate software that must be installed before Maximo can be installed. In Part 3 of this guide, Maximo 7.1 is installed. Part 4 shows the installation of the Maximo License for Use. Without this license, Maximo will have very limited functionality. Part 1. Overview 7

Maximo Asset Management 7.1 Installation Guide

www.maximo2explore.com

Part 5 deals with the installation of Language Packs. Part 6 shows how to install Fixpack 7.1.1.5, the latest fixpack for Maximo 7.1 at the moment this guide was written. Part 7 contains a summary of all entries made during the installation, and is meant to be of use when you are already more familiar with the installation procedure. Throughout this guide you will find Tips & Tricks. At some points, the installation instruction will be different than what you can find in the IBM guide and on the IBM website. This is because either the IBM instruction contains a mistake, or the instruction in this guide provides more control over the installation step. The instructions in this guide have proven themselves in multiple production environments. Before you can start with the installation, you will need to have the install files. The are grouped in two folders: Launchpad and Middleware. The following two screenshots show the contents of these folders. The Launchpad folder contains the Launchpad application which is a page from which you can launch the different installers. Further, it contains the Maximo Asset Management 7.1 installation files, the Maximo License installation files and the Language Pack installation files The Middleware folder contains the installation packages for WebSphere Application Server ND 6.1.0.19, Rational Agent Controller, DB2 9.5 and Tivoli Directory Server. The installation of these packages can be launched from the Launchpad.

In the next chapters, every installation step corresponds either with a screen of the installer, providing additional information and a list of values you have to enter, or it corresponds to an action you have to take, for example execute a command in a command prompt. To go to the next step of the installation, you will have to click Next or OK or something similar. A note on passwords: avoid using special characters in passwords. Only use A-Z a-z 0-9, otherwise Maximo may fail to install and the reason can be difficult to trace. In this installation example, to keep it simple, the password is always the same as the username.

Part 2. Installing Middleware

The Middleware that Maximo requires is a database server DB2, Oracle of Microsoft SQL Server an application server WebSphere Application Server or Weblogic

In this guide, we will look at the installation of WebSphere and DB2. Optionally, Maximo can use a directory server for its user authentication. Maximo ships with Tivoli Directory Server, but can also use Microsoft Active Directory. However, in this guide we will not set up a directory server. The machine on which I will install WebSphere Application Server will serve as the deployment manager in my server architecture. This means that this machine will be used to deploy the Maximo application to all application servers in my environment. The WebSphere installer will also install one application server on the same machine as the deployment manager. Later on, you can install a WebSphere application server on other machines and link or federate them with the deployment manager. Additionally, the WebSphere installer will also setup a webserver on the same machine as the deployment manager.

www.maximo2explore.com

The WebSphere installer installs a deployment manager, and one application server federated with that deployment manager. In WebSphere, these two functions are called Profiles. A deployment manager profile will hold all the files necessary to deploy an application to application servers. An application server profile will hold all the files to run an application. Deployment Manager profile name: Application server profile name: MaximoDmgrProfile MaximoAppProfile

Part 2. Installing Middleware

23

A node refers to a machine on which a profile (deployment manager or application server) will run. Nodes are grouped in one or more cells. You must at least have one cell. In WebSphere, some functions, like message queues, are configured for an entire cell, which means that these functions are available for every node in that cell, an for all application servers on these nodes. Cell name: Deployment Manager node name: Application server node name: Update Installer Install location: MaximoCell MaximoDmgrNode MaximoAppNode C:\maxapps\IBM\WebSphere\UpdateInstaller

Step 16. Enter configuration parameters for IBM HTTP Server Version 6.1.0.19
These are the parameters for the webserver that will be installed in WebSphere. The default port 80 is the port on the host machine on which the webserver will listen. Later on, when the Maximo installation is complete, you use this port in the URL in your webbrowser. In this case, the URL will be: http://mymaximoserver.mydomain:80/maximo However, since port 80 is the default port, it is not necessary to include it in the URL. Install location: HTTP port: Admin Server port: C:\maxapps\IBM\HTTPServer 80 8008

Step 25. Create the nodeagent as a Windows service


When WebSphere is installed, it starts the node agent service. In short, an application server's node agent is a piece of software for the communication between the deployment manager and the node on which an application server runs. The node agent can be started from the command prompt: C: cd C:\maxapps\ibm\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\MaximoAppProfile\bin startserver nodeagent However, it is more convenient to create a windows service through which the nodeagent can be started and stopped. This service can also be configured to start automatically when windows starts. To configured the node agent as a windows service, execute these commands in a command prompt window: stop node agent: cd C:\maxapps\ibm\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\MaximoAppProfile\bin stopserver nodeagent -username wasadmin -password wasadmin

Part 2. Installing Middleware

Part 3. Installing Maximo Asset Management

This part deals with the installation of Tivoli Base Services or Process Solution. Basically, this means installing the main components of Maximo Asset Management. Before the installation starts, the installer gathers the necessary information on the database server, deployment manager and application server, in order to configure the Maximo database and to deploy Maximo. Maximo has to be installed on an Administrative Workstation. This must always be a Windowsbased platform. In an environment where the application servers are also Windows-based, I always have one machine that serves as webserver, deployment manager and administrative workstation. In this installation example, I will install Maximo on the same machine as the deployment manager.

Click Apply to deploy all modules to the selected clusters and servers

Note: if you include webserver1, this means that you deploy application MAXIMO to the web server. This way, you will be able to use application MAXIMO without having to specify port 9080 (the default MXServer port) in the URL. If you have configured webserver1 to listen on port 80, you will not have to specify a port at all in the URL (refer to Step 16. Enter configuration parameters for IBM HTTP Server Version 6.1.0.19). If you choose not to deploy application MAXIMO to the web server, you will have to include port 9080 in the URL. You may want to choose this if you use MXServer as a separate integration server and cron-task server, in addition to multiple clustered application servers. This way, the web server will not redirect users to the MXServer application server.

MXServer is the default application server that is automatically created when you install Maximo. MXServer can be started from the command prompt: C: cd C:\maxapps\ibm\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\MaximoAppProfile\bin startserver MXServer However, it is more convenient to create a windows service through which MXServer can be started and stopped. This service can also be configured to start automatically when windows starts. To configured MXServer as a windows service, execute these commands in a command prompt window: stop MXServer: cd C:\maxapps\ibm\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\MaximoAppProfile\bin stopserver MXServer -username wasadmin -password wasadmin

Part 5. Installing Language Packs

To finalize the installation of Maximo, we will install an additional language on top of the base language English. Additional languages offer the user the option of displaying menus and screen labels in a language other than the base language. You can also configure that certain fields are language dependent, which means that data can be entered in multiple languages. This can be useful on for example item descriptions. On the other hand, value list, for example work order statuses, will still be displayed in the base language. Language Packs will also not install help files in a different language.
