Maximo Essentials V7.1 - Implementer’s Guide

If any errors are encountered, a dialog box detailing the error will appear. You will
not be permitted to continue in the Maximo Asset Management Essentials
installation task until the errors are resolved. The Maximo Asset Management
Essentials installation program can only be run from a Windows-based system.

5.4.2 Maximo Asset Management Essentials Installation

Avoid using localhost for host name values in the install program. Specify the
actual fully qualified host name of the system for all host name values. To install
Maximo Asset Management Essentials base services, follow these steps:

1. Login as a user with administrative authority. Launch the Tivoli middleware

installer from the launchpad. In the launchpad navigation pane, click Install
the Product

Maximo Asset Management Essentials.

2. You will now be presented with a series of screens prompting you for

parameters related to your middleware environment. If you used the
middleware installer, then most of these parameters will be pre-filled. If you
installed your middleware manually, you will need to provide the appropriate
values for each of the middleware components.

3. A special installation application (called Install Anywhere) will be installed and

initiated for installing the rest of the components. Install Anywhere is based on
IBM’s Autonomic installation technology, which helps drive complex,
multi-step installations.

4. You will be prompted information related to your middleware environment. If

you had used the Middleware installer, you will be prompted to use the
configuration information that was saved by the middleware installer to
automatically prefill many of these parameters.

From the Import Middleware Configuration Information panel, specify that
you want to use the field values you input into the Tivoli Middleware installer
as default values for those same fields in the Maximo Asset Management
Essentials installation program.

– The middleware default information will not be used if you select the

Simple deployment path.
