Table 4-1 lists the installation configurations that the SESA Foundation Pack supports along with the associated procedures to set up each type of
installation. After you install the SESA Directory, SESA DataStore, and SESA Manager, you can use the SESA Installation Wizard again to install SESA Directory replicas, additional SESA domains, and SESA Agents for heartbeat monitoring, as necessary.
See“Setting up failover support” on page 243.
See“Installing additional SESA domains” on page 212.
See“Installing the SESA Agent for heartbeat monitoring” on page 196.
Regardless of the type of installation that you perform, you must first install the SESA Directory. You then install one or more SESA DataStores. You must give each SESA DataStore information about the SESA Directory. Finally, you must install the SESA Manager. You must give each SESA Manager information about the SESA Directory and the SESA DataStore to which it connects.
Table 4-1 Supported variations of SESA installations
Installation variation Installation procedures
Express installation
You only need one Windows computer to test or demonstrate SESA in a nonproduction environment. The express installation installs all three SESA components and IBM DB2 Personal Edition on a single Windows computer. IBM DB2 Personal Edition is provided on the SESA distribution media and is used for the SESA DataStore. You are not required to install any third-party components prior to installing SESA components.
“Performing an express installation” on page 154
All-Windows installation
To run SESA in an all-Windows production environment, you can use one, two, or three Windows computers. The Windows platform requires you to use an IBM DB2 Universal database (Workgroup Edition, Enterprise Edition, or Enterprise Extended Edition) for the SESA DataStore, which you must have installed prior to installing the SESA DataStore.
Before you install the SESA Manager on a Windows computer, you must first do the following:
■ If the SESA DataStore and SESA Manager are on different computers, install the IBM DB2 Runtime Client to support the remote connection with the SESA DataStore computer. ■ Install the Sun Java Development Kit (SDK) 1.3.1_09.
If the SESA DataStore or SESA Directory is installed remotely from the SESA Manager, before you install SESA software on the remote computer or computers, you must install the Java Runtime Environment (J2RE) 1.3.1_09. (JRE 1.2.2_008 through J2RE 1.4.1_02
are supported.)
After you install the SESA Manager, SESA Directory, and SESA DataStore, you must install a SESA Agent for heartbeat monitoring on the SESA Directory and SESA DataStore computer or computers.
Complete the following procedures in the order in which they are listed:
■ “Installing a supported version of the IBM DB2 database” on page 94 ■ “Installing an IBM DB2 Runtime

All-Solaris installation
You can use two or three Solaris computers for an all-Solaris installation. You must have a dedicated Solaris computer that is running Oracle 9i for the SESA DataStore. The SESA DataStore and SESA Manager can be installed on the same or different computers. Before you install the SESA Manager on a Solaris computer, you must first install the Sun Java Development Kit (SDK) 1.3.1_09 or 1.3.1_02. Before you install the SESA Directory, you must install a supported IBM DB2 database (Workgroup or Enterprise Edition version 7.1 or later with FixPak 5) to support the IBM Directory Server 4.1 and the connection to the SESA DataStore.
In addition, before you install the SESA Directory or SESA DataStore, you must install the Java Runtime Environment (J2RE) 1.3.1_09. (JRE 1.2.2_008 through J2RE 1.4.1_02 are supported.)
After you install the SESA Directory, SESA DataStore, and SESA Manager, you must install a SESA Agent for heartbeat monitoring on the SESA DataStore computer. If the SESA Directory is on a different computer than the SESA Manager, you must also install another SESA Agent for heartbeat monitoring on the SESA Directory computer.
