Install remote search service using IBM Installation Manager

WebSphere Application Server v8.5 must be installed. HCL WebSphere Portal and Web Content Manager must not be installed.

Use the WP8.5_iim.remotesearch installation package to install remote search service using Installation Manager.

1. Enter the installation directory of the remote search service in the installation directory field.

2. Select a language.

3. Select a package to install. We can select either remote search service, remote document conversion service (DCS), or both.

4. Enter the location of the target WebSphere Application Server root directory.

5. Specify which user is able to access and use remote search service from the portal server by entering their user name and password.
   • We can install remote search service using manual steps.
   • Additional installation and configuration of remote DCS is no longer required with HCL WebSphere Portal v8.5.
   • Installing remote search service using Installation Manager will create a new WAS profile for remote search service.
