Preface
Installing a Sun JavaTM Enterprise System (Java ES) solution is an extended
process. In a typical solution you install Java ES components on
several networked computers, and then configure component instances that interoperate.
This book, Sun Java Enterprise System Installation Planning Guide,
describes how to analyze a Java ES architecture and develop a plan
for installing it.
Who Should Use This Book
Installation planning is one stage of the Java ES solution
life cycle. The Installation Planning Guide assumes
that the earlier stages of the life cycle covered in Sun Java Enterprise System Deployment Planning Guide have
been completed and the high-level technical description of the solution known
as the deployment architecture has been developed.
The Installation Planning Guide is for the person
who analyzes the deployment architecture and determines how the solution is
installed and configured.
Before You Read This Book
The Installation Planning Guide does not assume
that one person will carry out all stages of the solution life cycle. The
person who develops an installation plan should have knowledge of the following:
-
General knowledge of the components that make
up the Java Enterprise System and the services provided by each component. For more
information, see Java ES Components in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Technical Overview.
-
Thorough understanding of IP networking, including network
addressing, the use of load balancing hardware or software, the use of firewalls
for securing networks, and setting up DNS servers.
-
Thorough knowledge of the operating system platform on which
you are installing the solution, including installing the operating system,
assigning network addresses, and configuring storage devices.
-
General knowledge of the Java ES installer. For
more information, see How the Java ES Installer Works in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Installation Guide for UNIX.
-
General knowledge of LDAP directories.
-
Sufficient knowledge of hardware to estimate the disc space
requirements for the solution.
You may find that more than person is needed to develop the installation
plan. For example, the person with primary responsibility for the plan might
need to consult with an LDAP expert to develop some of the information required
to install and configure a solution.
How This Book Is Organized
Chapter 1 provides an overview of the installation planning process.
Chapter 2 describes how to develop additional information, not included
in the deployment architecture, that is needed to install a Java ES solution.
Chapter 3 describes installation planning in general, and then describes
how to develop an installation plan for your specific Java ES solution.
Java ES Documentation Set
The Java ES documentation set describes deployment planning
and system installation. The URL for system documentation is http://docs.sun.com/coll/1286.2.
