Migrating and installing IBM HTTP Server > Distributed operating systems
You can install the IBM HTTP Server product on distributed operating systems in two ways: from the discs in the product package, or by downloading installation images from the Passport Advantage site, if we are licensed to do so. Distributed operating systems include AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, and Windows systems.
Before you can successfully install IHS, ensure that your environment meets the prerequisites for the application server. For more information, see the Preparing the operating system for product installation topic.
The installation procedure on distributed platforms uses the InstallShield for Multiplatforms (ISMP) program to perform the installation. You can use the Installation wizard in graphical interface mode or in silent mode. In silent mode, the Installation wizard does not display a graphical interface, but instead, reads your responses from a flat file that you prepare beforehand.
Use the links provided in this topic to learn about the installation features.
- Install IHS
This topic describes how to install IBM HTTP Server using the graphical interface.
- Migrating from previous releases of IHS
This topic provides information on what to look for when you are migrating IHS from a previous release.
- Install IHS silently
A silent installation uses the installation wizard to install the product in silent mode, without the graphical user interface. Instead of displaying a wizard interface, the silent installation enables the installation program to read all of your responses from a file that you provide.
- Uninstalling IHS
This topic contains procedures for uninstalling the IBM HTTP Server. The uninstaller program is customized for each product installation, with specific disk locations and routines for removing installed features. The uninstaller program does not remove configuration and log files.
