Verify the installation

We can verify successful installation of the offering using the capabilities of IBM Installation Manager.

• To verify installation of the offering, we can use Installation Manager to find the offering in the list of installed packages.

  Change the directory to the eclipse/tools subdirectory of the Installation Manager binaries location, and run this command:

  ./imcl listInstalledPackages

  This will display a list indicating which packages this Installation Manager has installed. For example:

  com.ibm.websphere.liberty.v85_8.5.5.20110203_0234

• If an installation was successful, the installed.xml file should contain a location element for the installed offering.

  For example, the following file:

  installation_manager_root/properties/version/installed.xml

  should contain something like this:

  <location id="IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty Core V8.5" kind="product" path="/QIBM/ProdData/WebSphere/AppServer/V85/LibertyCore"> ..... </location>

• If we used the Installation Manager -log option during installation, we can verify that the resulting log file does not contain any errors.

  If we used the following command to install the offering silently for example:

  ./imcl -acceptLicense 
    input $HOME/WASFiles/liberty/temp/install_response_file.xml 
    -log $HOME/WASFiles/liberty/temp/install_log.xml 
    -secureStorageFile $HOME/WASFiles/liberty/temp/credential.store -masterPasswordFile $HOME/WASFiles/liberty/master_password_file.txt

  and the installation was successful, the install_log.xml file should contain something like this:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <result>
  </result>
