Installing IBM HTTP Server (IHS) v8.5.5 by using the imcl command on Linux(WebSphere Jungle) -- Real-time method

Follow  the steps to install IBM HTTP Server (IHS) v8.5.5 by using the imcl command on Linux  :

                Note : It is one of the way to install IHS8.5.5 in comapines.

1.Download  IBM HTTP Server (IHS)  version 8.5  trial package from IBM website. This software  comes with 2 disks like
                                 was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan_part1.zip
                          was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan_part2.zip
Note:
                                Silent installation cannot install packages that are contained different disks.
                 ex:
                       here I use IHS 8.5.5.0 trail version. It comes 2 different disks like
                          was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan_part1.zip
                          was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan_part2.zip
                       Then we need to unzip these 2 zip files. It will be created 2 diffrent folders like
                        was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan_part1
                        was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan_part2
Then we merge these 2 folders into one folder like "was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan".

2.Before installing  IBM HTTP server  version 8.5  trial package. You need to download & install Installation Manager(IM) in your box(system) from IBM website.
                           If u want steps for installation of Installation Manager(IM)(Real time)  u can verify my previous article.
         
3.open putty to connect server
    Need to provide IP address to connect the server

4.Go to Installation Manager directory.
    cd /opt/IBM/InstallationManager/tools


5.Execute the below command

./imcl install com.ibm.websphere.IHS.v85_8.5.5000.20130514_1044,arch.64bit -repositories /tmp/was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan/repository.config -installationDirectory /opt/IBM/HTTPServer85 -sharedResourcesDirectory /opt/IBM/IMShared -properties user.ihs.httpPort=80 -acceptLicense -showProgress

 Details of command :
com.ibm.websphere.IHS.v85_8.5.5000.20130514_1044 - Package Name (It may different in your package. Please check the package name as per your binaries)
arch.64bit - It'll install 64 bit
/tmp/was.repo.8550.ihs.ilan/ - where package is available. Need to provide binaries path
/opt/IBM/HTTPServer85 - Where to install IHS.
user.ihs.httpPort=80 - It'll allocate 80 port for IHS.
Note: You can change above details based on your environment and requirement.
