Pre-installation tasks for IIS7.x

...

  1. Select one of the following Web server types, from the drop-down menu:
    • IIS (Microsoft)
    • Apache
    • iPlanet (Sun)
    • WebLogic (Oracle)
    • WebSphere (IBM)
    • Tomcat (Apache)
    • Sun One
    • Oracle AS
    • SAP WAS J2EE
    • Other J2EE

      Info

      The options Apache, SAP WAS J2EE, Sun iPlanet, Oracle 10g Application Server, Sun ONE, and other J2EE Web servers are supported, but currently without Web server statistics. Client-side instrumentation is not supported by Sun iPlanet and Apache 1.3.

  2. Select the server where the Web server instance is located, from the drop-down menu. Click Add to enter the name of a server not on the list. For more information, see see see Adding a new server on page 44.

    Info

    This is the name or IP address of the server where you want to install the Web Tier Collector with a specific operating system. The server name or IP address appears in the list only if you previously defined it as a Precise server. If using Microsoft IIS, you cannot install on a UNIX platform.

  3. Click Next.

...

  1. Enter a cluster name. Use a free-text identifier to provide a unique name to be shared by all instances in the cluster. In addition, a unique identifier will automatically be added to each instance.

    Info

    The unique name will be the application server name.

  2. Select one of the following Web server types, from the drop-down menu:
    • WebLogic
    • WebSphere
  3. Select the server where any of the web instances running the cluster application is located, from the drop-down menu. Click Add to enter the name of a server not on the list. For more information, see see see Adding a new server on page 44.

    Info

    This is the name or IP address of the server where you want to install the Web Tier Collector with a specific operating system. The server name or IP address appears in the list only if you previously defined it as a Precise server.


    The Web site field will be auto-detected and populated. Once you have selected one of the auto-discovered Web sites in the Detected Web sites list, the required fields will be automatically filled. If the fields are incorrect, they can be modified manually.

    Info

    The auto-detection mechanism is limited in different ways, depending on whether WebLogic or WebSphere is on a Windows or UNIX server. On Windows, the detection is based on running processes. Therefore, the Web server will not be detected if it is not running. However, Web servers that are installed as Windows services will not be detected whether they are running or not. On UNIX, in most configurations of HP, Linux, Sun, and AIX prior to version 5.3 patch 5, the Web servers may be partially detected or not detected at all.

  4. Select the Web server version from the drop-down menu.
    Normally the installer will auto-detect and display the Web server version in this field. If the Web server version is not auto-detected, or incorrect, enter the inputs manually. Select one of the following Web server version options from the list:

    • WebLogic. 8.x, 9.x, 10.x

    • WebSphere. 6.0, 6.1-6.x, 7.0

  5. Select the application type from the drop-down menu.
    This is the application served by this Web server site. This information enables better configuration of the Web Tier Collectors. The following options are available:

    • Web (default)

    • PeopleSoft

  6. If PeopleSoft was selected in the previous field, enter the relevant Application version between version 8.44 -8.498.5x.

  7. Click Next.

...

At this screen, you can still change any of the settings displayed. Click Back to change any of the displayed settings. Click Next to continue installation. Click Cancel to stop the installation process. 


Info

At this point, the cluster definitions are saved and an agent is only installed on the specified server. For servers that will be added after this point, the agent will be installed only once the instance is started.

About the AdminPoint cluster installation progress screen

...

This screen appears when the AdminPoint cluster installer has completed installation of the cluster. Click Finish (it will be the only option available) to complete the cluster installation.

Info

If you have installed a cluster, this is the only documented post-installation action item. Verify that no additional action items are needed by checking the list Action Items screen.

 


  • To automatically modify the web.xml file(s) of the monitored application(s), you are required to login as the user that has permissions to change the application files and run a script that adds the Precise for Web agents to your application.

...

Info

It is highly recommended to install the Microsoft hotfix mentioned in KB 2505146 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2505146) as this solves a Microsoft IIS7 issue. Should you not apply the hotfix and continue to perform the following steps, your application will stop working.

 


To add wildcard application mapping to a Web server or Web site, go to the Precise_root directory and run the following script:
products\www\install\psww_insert_isapi_handlers.bat <precise_root>
<instance_id> <site_name> add-handler PreciseWebHandler <filter_path>

...

For example: products\www\install\psww_insert_isapi_handlers.bat "E:\Precise Installation" 2442 Petshop remove-handler PreciseWebHandler "E:\Precise Installation\products\www\instances\2442\bin\IISFilter"
