Adding horizontal portal node-part1: Install portal with binary only & Registering Profile Templates

1. Install websphere portal using binary install option


./install.sh -W defaults.isBinaryInstall=true
Install.bat -W defaults.isBinaryInstall=true

NOTE: The flag defaults.isBinaryInstall=true tells the installer to not create a Portal profile. Instead, we will use the Profile Management Tool to create a Portal profile and federate it to the Deployment Manager later in this guide.






























2. As part of the above it doesn’t create any profile (wp_proflie directory ).


3. Create a directory called profileTemplates within the <PortalServer root> directory i.e. C:\IBM\WP7\PortalServer\profileTemplates


4. Copy <PortalServer root>/profileTemplates/profileTemplates.zip from the Primary Portal node to the newly created <PortalServer root>/profileTemplates directory on the additional node.


5. Unzip the profileTemplates.zip file into the <PortalServer root>/profileTemplates directory on the additional node.


6. From the <PortalServer root>/profileTemplates directory, execute the following command:


./installProfileTemplates.sh <AppServer root>
installPortalTemplates.bat C:\IBM\WP7\AppServer


C:\IBM\WP7\PortalServer\profileTemplates>installPortalTemplates.bat C:\IBM\WP7\AppServer
"checking availability of setupCmdLine.bat"
"registering the profileTemplates in C:\IBM\WP7\AppServer"
