Overview

If you installed WebSphere Portal using the Install and Configure option of the installation program, or configured WebSphere Portal using IBM Web Administration for iSeries, portlets were automatically deployed and this step is not necessary.

To manually deploy all portlets, follow these steps:

  1. Start the Qshell Interpreter by entering the following on an OS/400 command line:

    STRQSH

  2. Enter the following to change to the appropriate directory:

    cd /qibm/userdata/webas5/base/<instance>/portalserver5/config

    where instance is the name of the WAS instance.

  3. Enter the following command:

    installportlets.sh <portalAdminID> <portalAdminPassword> <portalHostName> <portalPortNumber>

    Where:

    portalAdminID WebSphere Portal administrator ID.
    portalAdminPassword WebSphere Portal administrator password specified during installation.
    portalHostName Host name of the machine where you installed WebSphere Portal. If WAS security is not enabled, you can use a value of localhost for this argument. Otherwise, use the fully qualified host name, such as hostname.yourco.com.
    portalPortNumber Port number used to access WebSphere Portal. This value is stored in the WpsHostPort property in...

    /QIBM/UserData/WebAS5/Base/<instance>/PortalServer5/config/wpconfig.properties

    For example:

    installportlets.sh wpsadmin mypassword hostname.yourco.com 10009
