Create the WebSphere Portal profile template on Windows 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
Windows clustered server: Configure WebSphere Portal to use a databaseCreating the WebSphere Portal profile template:
- Run the ConfigEngine.bat 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/profileTemplates/default.portal/configArchives directory.
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.
- Run the ConfigEngine.bat package-profiles -DWasPassword=foo task to zip the profileTemplates directory and create a profileTemplates.zip file in the $PORTAL_HOME/profileTemplates directory.
