To create an EAR file after running the installer

Use this procedure if you want to create an EAR file after you have installed IBM® EMM products. You might want to do this if you decide you want a different combination of products in the EAR file.

The WAR files must be in a single directory. You will run the installer in console mode, from the command line.

1.	If this is the first time you are running the installer in console mode, make a backup copy of the installer's .properties file for each of your installed products.

Each IBM® product installer creates one or more response files with a .properties extension. These files are located in the same directory where you have placed the installers. Be sure to back up all files with the .properties extension, including the installer_productversion.properties files and the file for the IBM® installer itself, which is named installer.properties.

If you plan to run the installer in unattended mode, you should back up the original .properties files, because when the installer runs in unattended mode, it clears these files. To create an EAR file, you need the information that the installer writes in the .properties files during the initial install.

2.	Open a command window and change directories to the directory that contains the installer.

3.	Run the installer executable with this option:

-DUNICA_GOTO_CREATEEARFILE=TRUE

On UNIX-type systems, run the .bin file rather than the .sh file.

The installer wizard runs.

4.	Follow the instructions in the wizard.

5.	Before you create additional EAR files, overwrite the .properties file or files with the backup(s) you created before you ran in console mode for the first time.
