Preparing for installation These topics provide information about product media, preinstallation considerations, overview of the installation procedure, and instructions on using the Maximo® Asset Management launchpad. Use the planning information to familiarize yourself with the overall process of a Maximo Asset Management deployment before you use this information to conduct the installation. Software installation images You access the IBM® Maximo Asset Management product software from IBM Passport Advantage. The installation images that you download from Passport Advantage can comprise multiple downloadable files. Download all files in the package to a single directory and extract the files for execution. For instructions and a full list of installation images, see the IBM Maximo Asset Management 7.6 Download Document (http://www.ibm.com/support/ docview.wss?uid=swg24038431). Before you begin You must prepare your environment before you install Maximo Asset Management. In some cases, to perform steps for preparation, you must be logged in as a user with administrator privileges on Windows or as root on UNIX. Some processes, such as anti-virus programs, can negatively affect Maximo Asset Management installation on the system. You must temporarily shut down any noncritical processes before running the Maximo Asset Management installation program. Make a copy of the image of the system, database, and application server on which you are planning to install the product. Ensure that you have adequate disk space for the future on the systems being used for the Maximo Asset Management deployment. Filling up the disk space on a Maximo Asset Management deployment system can cause problems with Maximo Asset Management operations. Fully qualified host names provided to the installation programs must resolve between systems involved in the
