Parameters for local installations of Network Deployment

The SETUP script in Qshell and the Run Java (RUNJVA) command include several optional parameters that you can use to customize your installation. If a parameter is not specified, the installation program uses the default value for that parameter. If no parameters are specified, WAS Network Deployment for iSeries and WebSphere MQ classes for Java and JMS V5.3 for iSeries is installed with their default options.

For example, you can use parameters to install only the Network Deployment product and not to install WebSphere MQ classes for Java and JMS for iSeries. To do this, you would enter one of these commands to start the installation program:

This table describes all of the configurable parameters for the WAS Network Deployment and the WebSphere MQ classes for Java and JMS V5.3 for iSeries installation. Each product is represented by its product parameter name and its possible parameter values are represented by product assigned parameters. Use the -help parameter to display a list of possible parameters and their usage. The table lists the supported national language options, including double-byte character sets (DBCS) and multi-national character sets (MNCS).

Note: If you want the default value, you do not need to specify it.
