Completing the post-deployment tasks

After you run the HCL Leap installer for WebSphere® Application Server , you must complete the deployment by setting up the Leap environment.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have the Administrative user ID and password for deployment.
  • WebSphere® Application Server installations: The Administrative user ID and Password of your WebSphere® Application Server .

About this task

When you attempt to log in to Leap for the first time, you are shown a setup screen. Following the steps on the setup screen completes the Leap installation.

There are two phases to set up the Leap environment:
  • Phase 1 - Basic Environment Setup
  • Phase 2 - Secured Environment Setup
    Note: To disable this setup page and required admin interaction, add the following property to the Leap_config.properties:
    ibm.nitro.SetupAll.setupStatus = start

Procedure

  1. Go to the location of your Leap installation. Open a web browser and enter http://hostname:port/apps/
    The web browser shows the following message: HCL Leap is not set up. Until that occurs, all normal requests are disabled. Click Setup to start the setup process.
  2. Click Setup.
    The Leap setup window opens and automatically runs Phase 1: Basic Environment Setup.
  3. To begin Phase 2- Secured Environment Setup, click Continue to Secured Setup.
    You are shown the Leap log in screen.
  4. Log in using the Administrative user ID and Password for WebSphere® Application Server
    After you log in, you are returned to the Leap setup page, and the Secured Setup continues automatically.
  5. When the Secured Setup is complete, click Continue to Manager.
    Leap is now ready to use.
    1. If there are any upgrades that must be done, a Fix button is shown. Click Fix to run the required upgrades.
      Once the upgrades have started, read the on-screen instructions and click Continue to Manager to begin working with Leap.
  6. After you have verified that Leap is working, create the these extra table spaces to minimize the database size as applications are created. Connect to the Leap DB2® as a DB2® administrator. Enter the following commands:
    CREATE BUFFERPOOL FEB4KBP IMMEDIATE SIZE 250 AUTOMATIC PAGESIZE 4 K
    
    CREATE LARGE TABLESPACE USERSPACE4K PAGESIZE 4 K MANAGED BY AUTOMATIC STORAGE BUFFERPOOL FEB4KBP
    
    CREATE BUFFERPOOL FEB8KBP IMMEDIATE SIZE 250 AUTOMATIC PAGESIZE 8 K
    
    CREATE LARGE TABLESPACE USERSPACE8K PAGESIZE 8 K MANAGED BY AUTOMATIC STORAGE BUFFERPOOL FEB8KBP
    
    CREATE BUFFERPOOL FEB16KBP IMMEDIATE SIZE 250 AUTOMATIC PAGESIZE 16 K
    
    CREATE LARGE TABLESPACE USERSPACE16K PAGESIZE 16 K MANAGED BY AUTOMATIC STORAGE BUFFERPOOL FEB16KBP
    Note: This is for DB2 databases only.
