Configuring Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize before deployment
Before you deploy, create and populate the Unica Campaign , Unica Optimize, and IBM eMessage system tables and register Unica Campaign, Unica Optimize, and IBM eMessage manually.
Registering Unica Campaign manually
During the installation process. if the Unica Campaign installer cannot access the Unica Platform system tables, you must run the configTool utility to register Unica Campaign and Optimize manually.

- Installation overview
  An installation of HCL Unica products is complete when you install, configure, and deploy the HCL Unica products . The Installation Guide provides detailed information about installing, configuring, and deploying the products.
- Planning the Unica Campaign Installation
  When you plan your Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize installation, you must ensure that you have set up your system correctly, and that you have configured your environment to deal with any failures.
- Preparing data sources for Unica Campaign
  The Unica Optimize runtime environment uses data sources to store user and interaction data.
- Installing Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize
  You must run the Unica installer to start the installation of Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize. The Unica installer starts the product installer during the installation process. Make sure that the Unica installer and the product installer are saved at the same location.
- Configuring Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize before deployment
  Before you deploy, create and populate the Unica Campaign , Unica Optimize, and IBM eMessage system tables and register Unica Campaign, Unica Optimize, and IBM eMessage manually.
  - Creating and populating the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize system tables manually
    By default, the Unica Campaign installer automatically creates and populates system tables. However, if the system tables are not created and populated automatically during the installation, you must populate the system tables manually. Use your database client to run the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize SQL scripts against the appropriate database to create and populate the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize system tables.
  - Registering Unica Campaign manually
    During the installation process. if the Unica Campaign installer cannot access the Unica Platform system tables, you must run the configTool utility to register Unica Campaign and Optimize manually.
    - Registering IBM eMessage manually
      During the installation process. if the IBM eMessage installer cannot access the Unica Platform system tables, you must run the configTool utility to register it manually.
  - Setting data source variables in the Unica Campaign startup script (UNIX only)
    Data source variables are automatically set by the installer during installation of Unica Campaign. You can change these settings in the Campaign/bin/setenv.sh file. You must restart the server every time you modify the setenv.sh file.
- Deploying the Unica Campaign web application
  You can deploy the Unica Campaign web application by using an EAR file or you can deploy the individual WAR files.
- Configuring Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize after deployment
  After you deploy Unica Campaign, you must verify that the Unica Campaign listener is running, set up the Unica Campaign system user, set Unica Campaign configuration properties, and verify the Unica Campaign installation.
- Configuring multiple partitions for Unica Campaign
  In the Unica family of products, partitions provide a way to secure the data that is associated with different groups of users. When you configure Unica Campaign or a related Unica application to operate with multiple partitions, users can see each partition as a separate instance of the application. There is no indication that other partitions exist on the same computer.
- Configuring multiple partitions for Unica Optimize
  In the Unica family of products, partitions provide a way to secure the data that is associated with different groups of users. When you configure Unica Campaign or a related Unica application to operate with multiple partitions, users can see each partition as a separate instance of the application. There is no indication that other partitions exist on the same computer.
- Configuring multiple partitions in eMessage
  Configure multiple partitions in IBM eMessage to isolate and secure data for different groups of IBM eMessage users. As each partition has its own set of configuration properties, you can customize IBM eMessage for each group of users.
- Unica Unica Platform utilities
  This section provides an overview of the Unica Platform utilities, including some details that apply to all the utilities and which are not included in the individual utility descriptions.
- Uninstalling Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize
  Run the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize uninstaller to uninstall Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize. When you run the uninstaller, the files that were created during the installation process are removed. For example, files such as configuration files, installer registry information, and user data are removed from the computer.
- Unica Campaign web application clustering
  You can configure the Unica Campaign web application (J2EE application) in a cluster by completing additional tasks during the Unica Campaign installation.
- Installing a clustered listener environment
  Follow these instructions if you want to install a clustered listener configuration. A listener cluster is a set of two or more listeners that act as a unit to provide load balancing and high availability. Unica Campaign listener clusters are Active-Active; meaning each node serves requests using the load-balanced approach. Each Unica Campaign listener provides an interface between front-end clients (such as the Unica Campaign web application) and back-end analytical server processes.

Registering IBM eMessage manually

During the installation process. if the IBM eMessage installer cannot access the Unica Platform system tables, you must run the configTool utility to register it manually.

About this task

By default, the Unica Campaign installer automatically registers IBM eMessage with the Unica Platform system tables without enabling IBM eMessage. In some situations, the Unica Campaign installer does not connect with the Unica Platform system tables to automatically register IBM eMessage.

If the installer does not register IBM eMessage automatically, you must register IBM eMessage manually with the configTool utility that is provided with the Unica installation. The configTool utility is in the tools\bin directory under your Unica Platform installation.

To register IBM eMessage manually, use the following command to run the configTool utility:

configTool -r eMessage -f "full_path_to_eMessage_installation_directory\conf\emessage_configuration.xml"

The IBM eMessage installation directory is a subdirectory of the Unica Campaign installation directory.
