Install the Pluggable Application Client using the command line

We can install the Pluggable Application Client using the Installation Manager command line.

Before installing the product, you must read the license agreement that we can find with the product files. Signify your acceptance of the license agreement by specifying -acceptLicense in the command as described below.


Install Installation Manager on each of the systems onto which to install the product.

  1. Optional: If the repository requires a username and password, create a keyring file to access this repository.

    For more information on creating a keyring file for Installation Manager, read the IBM Installation Manager v1.5 Information Center.

    When creating a keyring file, append /repository.config at the end of the repository URL location if the imutilsc command is unable to find the URL specified.

  2. Log on to your system.

  3. Change to the eclipse/tools subdirectory in the directory where you installed Installation Manager.
  4. Verify the product repository is available.

      imcl.exe listAvailablePackages -repositories source_repository
    You should see one or more levels of the offering.

  5. Use the imcl command to install the product.
    imcl.exe install com.ibm.websphere.PLUGCLIENT.v85_offering_version,optional_feature_ID
      -repositories source_repository 
      -installationDirectory installation_directory 
      -sharedResourcesDirectory shared_directory
      -accessRights access_mode
      -preferences preference_key=value
      -properties property_key=value
      -keyring keyring_file -password password
      -acceptLicense

    Tips:

    • The relevant terms and conditions, notices, and other information are provided in the license-agreement files in the lafiles or product_name/lafiles subdirectory of the installation image or repository for this product.
    • The offering_version, which optionally can be attached to the offering ID with an underscore, is a specific version of the offering to install (8.5.0.20110503_0200 for example).

      • If offering_version is not specified, the latest version of the offering and all interim fixes for that version are installed.

      • If offering_version is specified, the specified version of the offering and no interim fixes for that version are installed.

      The offering version can be found attached to the end of the offering ID with an underscore when we run the following command against the repository:

        imcl listAvailablePackages -repositories source_repository
    • We can also specify none, recommended or all with the -installFixes argument to indicate which interim fixes you want installed with the offering.

      • If the offering version is not specified, the -installFixes option defaults to all.

      • If the offering version is specified, the -installFixes option defaults to none.

    • The -accessRights parameter is not required if you previously specified the mode in which to install Installation Manager.
    • The program might write important post-installation instructions to standard output.

    For more information on using the imcl command to install the product, see the IBM Installation Manager v1.5 Information Center.
