v Run the Installer utility for IBM WebSphere Business Integration Adapters from
the product CD and select the IBM WebSphere Business Integration Adapter for
i2.
The utility allows you to browse and select the directory into which it will
install the connector subdirectories and files. You must install to the
%ProductDir% product directory that you used for your installation of the IBM
WebSphere InterChange Server system. Use the browse button in the Installer to
locate the directory and select it.
Result: The Installer utility copies the standard files into your system.
Tip: After you have installed your business integration system, you can install
additional connectors from the product CD-ROM at any time. To do this, insert the
product CD-ROM, run the installation program, and choose the connectors that
you want to install.
Installed file structure
The following table describes the file structure used by the connector and shows
the files that are automatically installed with Installer.
Notes:
1. This document uses (\) backslashes as the convention for directory paths. For
UNIX installations, substitute slashes (/) for backslashes.
2. All product path names are relative to the directory where the product is
installed on your system.
3. For Windows, Installer adds an icon for the connector file to the IBM
WebSphere Business Integration Adapters menu. For a fast way to start the
connector, create a shortcut to this file on the desktop.
