  • 1.  duplicate an environment

    Posted 05/03/12 07:45 AM
    I have 10 x WAS/WCS/DB2 environments to be installed. I don't fancy to install all 10 environments by hand on each server. 


    I was thinking about just copy VM images, then change hostname and/or IP addresses for each server. I am not sure all the files I need to change. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    We did this. We created templates for the HTTPServer, WAS/WC server, and DB2 server. For WAS/WC, product installed but no instance created. It has been a while so I don't remember exactly what all needed to be changed. For WAS/WC, you can use wsadmin to change the hostname. On our servers we had other things already installed so it wasn't just the Websphere stuff I needed to find where the old Template name was. You can write a little shell script using find and grep to search text files for the Template name (in our case) and change where necessary.

    Have fun.
