3.2 Select Configuration Option
Select one of the following options. The options that you see depend on your current configuration.
■
Create and Configure Cell : Select this option to create a new cell. The
Specify Cell, Profile and Node Name Information
screen appears next.
■
Federate Machine and Configure Cell : IBM WebSphere ND only Select this
option to add the current node to an existing cell. The Specify Profile and Node
Name Information screen appears next. In this case, you must run the
Configuration Wizard on the node that you want to federate to the cell.
■
Select and Configure Existing Cell : This option is available only if you have
already created a cell. To change the configuration of an existing cell, select this option. From the list, click on the cell that you want to configure the selected cell
will be highlighted. The Loading Cell Information screen appears next. See Section 3.6, Cell Progress,
for information about this screen.
3.3 Specify Cell, Profile and Node Name Information
This screen differs depending on whether you are running the Configuration Wizard in an IBM WebSphere ND environment or an IBM WebSphere AS environment.
In an IBM WebSphere AS environment:
■
There is no Deployment Manager profile or Deployment Manager node. Therefore, the Deployment Manager Profile Name and Deployment Manager
Node Name fields are not available on this screen.
Note: This option is not displayed for IBM WebSphere AS
environments, as it does not apply to single-server installations.

■
The Application Server Name field is available, allowing you to assign a name to the Application Server.
The following image shows the IBM WebSphere ND version of this screen.
Enter the appropriate values in the following fields. Each field is required. Use only alphanumeric characters in each field.
■
Cell Name : Enter a unique name for the new cell. This is the name of the directory
in which the cell is created, under the following two directories:
– IBM WebSphere ND only
: WAS_ HOMEprofilesDepMgrProfileconfigcells
, where WAS_HOME is the IBM WebSphere ND installation directory and DepMgrProfile is the
name of the Deployment Manager profile.
– Both IBM WebSphere AS and IBM WebSphere ND
: WAS_ HOMEprofilesAppSrvrProfileconfigcells
, where WAS_HOME is the IBM WebSphere installation directory and AppSrvrProfile is the name
of the Application Server profile. The default name is machine_nameCelln, where machine_name is the name of the
current machine, and n is the next two-digit number in the sequence on that machine. For example, if the machine name is machine1 and Cell01 already exists,
the default cell name is machine1Cell02.
■
Deployment Manager Profile Name : IBM WebSphere ND only Enter a unique
Deployment Manager profile name for this cell. This is the name of the directory in which the Deployment Manager profile is created, under WAS_HOMEprofiles.
The default name is Dmgrn, where n is the next two-digit number in the sequence. For example, if Deployment Manager profile Dmgr01 already exists, the default
for this field is Dmgr02.
■
Deployment Manager Node Name : IBM WebSphere ND only Enter a unique
Deployment Manager node name for this cell.
Configuration Wizard Screens 3-5
The default name is machine_nameCellManagern, where machine_name is the name of the current machine, and n is the next two-digit number in the sequence. For
example, if the machine name is machine1 and CellManager01 already exists, the default node name is machine1CellManager02.
■
Application Server Profile Name : Enter a unique Application Server profile name
for this cell. The is the name of the directory in which the Application Server profile is created, under WAS_HOMEprofiles.
– IBM WebSphere ND:
The default name is Customn, where n is the next two-digit number in the sequence. For example, if Application Server profile
Custom01 already exists, the default for this field is Custom02.
– IBM WebSphere AS:
The default name is AppSrv01.
■
Application Server Node Name : Enter a unique Application Server node name
for this cell. The default name is machine_nameNoden, where machine_name is the name of the
current machine, and n is the next two-digit number in the sequence on the machine. For example, if the machine name is machine1 and Node01 already
exists, the default node name is machine1Node02.
■
Application Server Name : IBM WebSphere AS only If you have already created
the Application Server, enter the name of the Application Server to use for this cell. The Configuration Wizard will designate this server internally as the
Administration Server for this cell.
If you have not already created the Application Server, the server name defaults to OracleAdminServer. The Configuration Wizard will create the Application Server
using this name, and designate it internally as the Administration Server for this cell.
When you are done filling in each field, click Next.
