Deploying Maximo EAR files in WebSphere Application Server

You can deploy the EAR files to create the Maximo® and Maximo help applications in WebSphere® Application Server.

Before you begin

The maximo.ear and maximoiehs.ear files must be built before they can be deployed.

If the Maximo application (MAXIMO) and the Maximo help application (MXIEHS) are already installed, you must uninstall them before you begin.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Integrated Solutions Console at http://host_name:port/admin and click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > Install.
  2. Browse to the install_dir\maximo\deployment\default directory where the maximo.ear file is stored and click Next.
  3. When you are asked how you want to install the application, select Fast Path and click Next.
  4. On the Select installation options panel, accept the default values and click Next.
  5. On the Map modules to servers panel, select the application server for the deployment and the web server that is used to access Maximo Asset Management. Then select the check boxes for all of the modules that are listed and click Apply > Next.
  6. On the Map virtual hosts for Web modules panel, select the check boxes next to each web module, select maximo_host from the Virtual host menu, and click Next.
  7. Review the summary panel and click Finish.
  8. When the application is installed, select Save directly to the master configuration.
  9. Repeat steps 1-8 to deploy the maximoiehs.ear file.
  10. To verify that the installation was successful, start the application server and log in to Maximo Asset Management.
