Installing WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base
WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base is required on all workstations where you plan to install the server components and the Dynamic Workload Console.
Before you begin
About this task
You can quickly install WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base by extracting an archive file on all supported platforms.
On UNIX workstations, you can install Open Liberty using a user of your choice. In this case, assign the HCL Workload Automation administrative user read and write access to the Open Liberty installation directory.
To install WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base, perform the following steps:
Procedure
-
Download Open Liberty from Get started with Open
Liberty.
Check the required version of the Application server in the Supported Software document available in Product Requirements. Download the package named All GA Features for the required version.
-
Install Open Liberty by extracting the archive file to a directory of your choice.
On Windows operating systems-
unzip openliberty_download_dir\openliberty-version.zip -d install_dir --acceptLicense 
On UNIX operating systems-
unzip openliberty_download_dir/openliberty-version.zip -d install_dir --acceptLicense
- openliberty_download_dir
- The directory where you downloaded Open Liberty.
- install_dir
- The directory where you want to install Open Liberty. Note: Note that the value of the install_dir parameter must match the value to be defined for the wlpdir parameter when installing the master domain manager and its backup, dynamic domain manager and its backup, and the Dynamic Workload Console.
- Ensure the HCL Workload Automation administrative user has the rights to run Open Liberty and full access to the installation directory. If Open Liberty is shared between the master domain manager and the Dynamic Workload Console, ensure also the Dynamic Workload Console user has the same rights.
