Prepare the WebSphere Application Server environment for HCL VersionVault web servers
Before you install HCL VersionVault web features, install a supported version of IBM® WebSphere Application Server, IBM HTTP Server, and Web Plug-ins for IBM WebSphere.
Note: For users on the UNIX platforms, first see Features not supported on the Core VersionVault UNIX platforms.
HCL VersionVault web features are deployed on the IBM WebSphere Application Server and use IBM HTTP Server for the client to server communication. This architecture requires that you have a supported version of WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server installed before you can install HCL VersionVault web server components.
Note: For the HCL Compass 64-bit on Windows
and Linux, the WebSphere Application Server installed must also be
64-bit. If the WebSphere Application Server is not 64-bit, an error
will be reported suggesting to install the 64-bit, and the installation will be blocked.
Attention: If you are not deploying HCL
VersionVault web server components to support client applications, you do not have to
install IBM
WebSphere Application
Server components.
HCL VersionVault is supported by IBM WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server.

Server and IBM HTTP Server are available from these resources:
