20. Installation – Install Software Installation Issues/ Tricks
General
Before Installing Take a Backup or Snapshot
When a component is Installed successfully take a Snapshot or Backup
Install Each Vendors Software using a dedicated local admin acct
Perform multiple installs refining your steps each time
Oracle 10G
Incorporate maximo’s db settings as part of the Oracle install
Create maximo user/tablespaces/rights before maximo installation
Place Oracle Database files on separate RAID 1 0 configured disks
IBM Websphere
Take c:\program files out of path. Java doesn’t like spaces
Use consistent path names and scrutinize the summary page
Google> websphere maximo performance IPV4 for perf. settings

22. Installation – Install Software Installing a demo Database
During the Maximo Install Select
Do not run the configuration during the installation
After installation finishes
Rename ibm\smp\maximo\tools\maximo\en\maximo.ora
Copy ibm\smp\maximo\tools\maximo\en\maxdemo.ora to ibm\smp\maximo\tools\maximo\en\maximo.ora
From a command prompt change to ibm\smp\scripts and run taskrunner. taskrunner.bat CONTINUE STOPONERROR
This will preserve the database configuration settings.
