3.4.3. Install ISO

The version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux you run in your production environment determines what procedure to follow to install the ISO:
All ISO images contain the relevant security errata and patches for the evaluated configuration. You do not need to install any other errata when you choose the ISO installation method.

Procedure 3.6. Install ISO on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4

Important

You must activate superuser privileges to install the ISO image.

  1. Mount ISO Image

    Mount the ISO image downloaded in Procedure 3.5, “Download the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform ISO” to /mnt/jboss. 
    [root ~]# mkdir /mnt/jboss
[root ~]# mount -o loop PATH_TO_ISO_IMAGE /mnt/jboss

  2. Create Local up2date Repository

    Create a local repository for the ISO to retrieve packages from during installation.
    Add the following line to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources. 
    echo "dir jbosslocal /mnt/jboss/RedHat/RPMS/" >> /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources

  3. Install JBoss Enterprise Application Platform

    Run the following up2date command, replacing WS_CHOICE with jbossas-ws-native or jbossas-ws-cxf 
    [root ~]# up2date -i jbossas-messaging WS_CHOICE jbossas jbossas-security-policy-cc

  4. Optionally install Native Components

    Run the following up2date command to install certified and supported native components 
    [root ~]# up2date jboss-eap5-native
