Installing with Tivoli Software Installation Service
The Software Installation Service (SIS) can install multiple Tivoli
products on multiple systems in parallel. This Java-based product
can, therefore, install more products on more systems in much less
time than the Frameworks installation facility. SIS performs product
prerequisite checks and, if defined, user-specified prerequisite
checks, ensuring as few installation failures as possible. In most
cases, failures occur only when machines are turned off or removed
from the network.
SIS also creates an installation repository (IR) into which you can
import the installation image of one or more Tivoli products. You
can import only those interpreter (operating system) types needed in
your environment, which saves disk space and processing time. The
IR then becomes the source of all your Tivoli installations. You can
even share a single IR across multiple Tivoli management regions.
See the Tivoli Software Installation Service Users Guide for
instructions on how to install SIS in your Tivoli environment and
how to install products using SIS.
Installing the Application Management Toolkit
You can install the Application Management Toolkit software from
the Tivoli desktop or from the command line.
