Create the WebSphere Portal profile template on IBM i in a clustered environment

After installing the primary node and configuring remote database, you should create the configuration archive (CAR) file that you will use to create additional WebSphere Portal profiles.


Prerequisites


Install WebSphere Portal
IBM i clustered server: Set up a remote database

Creating the WebSphere Portal profile template:

  1. Run the ConfigEngine.sh enable-profiles -DWasPassword=foo task, from the WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine of the profile that you will use as the primary node of the cluster. This command creates a configuration archive (CAR) file used to create additional WebSphere Portal profiles. The Portal.car file is saved to the $PORTAL_HOME/offer/portal/profileTemplates/default.portal/configArchives directory, where offer is either content or server.

      Type 4 database drivers only: If you configured WebSphere Portal for a remote database and placed database drivers inside of the WP_PROFILE/PortalServer directory, they will be included in the configuration archive file that is created when running the enable-profiles script.

  2. Run the ConfigEngine.sh package-profiles -DWasPassword=foo task to zip the profileTemplates directory and create a profileTemplates.zip file in the $PORTAL_HOME/profileTemplates directory.
