Installation and Configuration Overview

This section provides a general overview of the installation process and guidelines for deploying WebFOCUS portlets to a JSR 286-compliant portal environment.

1. Using the administration console (or similar user interface) for the portal environment, deploy the ops286.war file, which is included with your WebFOCUS installation.

   The ops286.war file is located in the following folder of your WebFOCUS installation:

   <drive>:\ibi\WebFOCUS82\webapps

   For more information, see the corresponding administration documentation for the portal environment.

2. If the WebFOCUS environment and the portal environment are installed on separate machines, then you will need to deploy the deploy the WebFOCUS Open Portal Services Gateway to the application server that is hosting the portal environment.

   For example, in the case of the IBM WebSphere Portal environment, the WebFOCUS Open Portal Services Gateway must be deployed to the IBM WebSphere Application Server.

   For more information, see Configuring the WebFOCUS Open Portal Services Gateway.

3. Create a new portal page in your portal environment using the page design utilities that are available from the console or similar user interface. Once a portal page is available, you can add one or more WebFOCUS portlets to this page as required.

   For more information, see the corresponding user documentation for the portal environment.
